New Bayern Munich manager Carlo Ancelotti has vowed to continue the club's attacking philosophy during his reign.
Bayern established themselves as one of the most potent attacking forces in European football under Pep Guardiola, who left to join Manchester City at the end of the 2015-16 campaign.
Ancelotti paid tribute to his predecessor and insists that there is no need for a revolution at the club following Guardiola's "fantastic" spell in charge.
"I know very well that the style of Bayern Munich is to play attacking football and we want to play attacking football. I love to play attacking football. We have a fantastic squad and I'm really happy about this. We've signed some fantastic players this summer," he told reporters.
"I'm not here to make a revolution because the job that Guardiola did here was fantastic and I would like to follow his style. I don't think our style is going to change a lot compared to last year. The system will be more or less the same.
"I come after a fantastic manager - I consider Guardiola a fantastic manager, a really, really serious, professional manager. He has shown a good image of football everywhere he was and I will try to follow, showing good, attacking football to ensure our fans are happy."
Ancelotti has previously won silverware in Italy, England, France and Spain.
