2. Bringing In La Masia's Finest
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvUMxmVdSQA With Guardiola's connections to Barcelona, it is all-but-guaranteed that Pep will bring in some recruits from the Spanish giants. These are likely to be in the form of La Masia youngsters; an academy which has produced the likes of Cesc Fabregas and Gerard Pique, along with the emergence of newer first team players such as Christian Tello and Isaac Cuenca. Although Pep is not afraid to spend big bucks on some of the bigger names in football, he is also renowned for building up stars from relative obscurity to first team regular. If Guardiola decides to raid his former club, don't be surprised to see such youngsters as Thiago and Martin Montoya appear in Bayern colours in the near future. On top of this, such Barca youngsters are likely to be familiar with the Tiki-Taka style that Guardiola is likely to adopt. It is surprising to learn that some of Barcelona's greatest success came when the likes of Eto'o, Ronaldinho and Deco were replaced with homegrown talent. Frank Rijkaard struggled to manage a side which was full of foreign talent from all around the globe and the domestic player bias that came with the Dutchman's successor proved very successful. Bayern Munich may become home to some promising Spanish youngsters after the next transfer window if Guardiola's managerial reign at Barca is anything to go by.
