Lothar Matthaus: 'Players have lost faith in Pep Guardiola'

Lothar Matthaus believes that the Bayern Munich players have lost faith in manager Pep Guardiola.

Bayern Munich legend Lothar Matthaus has claimed that the club's players have lost faith in manager Pep Guardiola.

The Bundesliga side have lost four consecutive games for the first time this season after their 1-0 defeat to Augsburg on Saturday, while it was the first time that the Spaniard has lost four times in a row during his illustrious career.

Matthaus believes that the players have become unsettled due to Guardiola's constant squad rotation.

"Guardiola has already said that their season is over and he's been rotating his team so much that he's unsettling the team," the former Germany midfielder told Sky Deutschland.

"His team no longer has the stability they had for over eight months, enchanting football fans up and down Germany."

Bayern face Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals on Tuesday, looking to overcome a 3-0 deficit from the first leg.
