The former striker turned coach had a forgettable spell at Sabener Strasse all told, but he did lay the groundwork for future achievements
Jurgen Klinsmann's former chief analyst, Michael Henke, has said that the Germany icon pulled Bayern Munich into modern times during his spell as head coach at the club, and took aim at the stories regarding miniature Buddha statues being installed at the training ground.
Klinsmann spent just one season in the dugout in Munich, eventually being sacked before the end of the 2008-09 campaign – a season that Philipp Lahm would go on to call 'a failure' in his autobiography.
