If you’re looking for a Pep Guardiola legacy at Bayern Munich, look no further.
Xabi bloody Alonso.
A man so gorgeous it hurts. A man so beautiful with a ball at his feet that it’s hard to take. A man who doesn’t sweat – talent just drips off him.
Xabi Alonso, a club man.

Pep Guardiola leaves Munich without a Champions League but he leaves behind one of the finest ball-players of our generation. And the memories of Xabi’s right foot won’t fade fast.
The great man was at it again on Saturday.
Fresh from their European exit at the hands of Atletico, Bayern headed for Ingolstadt and it wasn’t long before the magician was waving his wand.
An inch-perfect through ball into the run of Robert Lewandowski and football enthusiasts everywhere were drooling.
Please Xabi, don’t ever change.
