Interesting interview to read with Heiko Vogel, the Bayern head coach for the U23 and U19.They have an almost monopoly in Catalonia though, and pretty much everyone on that region dreams to join them. In addition, Spain (together with Germany) are probably the best football countries right now.
Here it would be more difficult because in 30 miles we have 4 Premier League clubs. In addition, City offers to young players and their families a good financial package while also having superior training ground. Which is perhaps why we have started heavily recruiting from outside of England.

FC Bayern Munich II - When FC Bayern all is well - only the talent comes in the public currently not so well off. An interview with Heiko Vogel, who is coordinating the three junior teams in the interface to the professional department and the U 23 supervised.
Mr. Vogel, winter break in sixth place, nine points behind: Did the athletic director Heiko Vogel have read the riot act to the U 23 coach Heiko Vogel before the holiday?
No. It is parted peacefully. One has to see everything in context. Clear sixth place is not satisfactory. But when times sees the circumstances, it is the way it is.
"It's the way it is" - which is a formulation that is unlikely to be acceptable at Bayern. , ,
Sure, but so casually I did not mean. I said: We know why it's like that. Worse would be if we did not know where to begin. Sometimes the right lever is the serenity. We have high standards, which means a lot of work. Always. But for me it's something nice. I won jilted under the Christmas tree therefore - but this also does not mean that I do not work in the non-training phase.
Uli Hoeness, you told me, represents critical questions - he must provide you with many to many in the past half year, it?
It provides legitimate and interesting questions. With it, the exchange is always fruitful, he's not a guy who strikes skin in love with strangers. He's a lot - and he demands a lot. He has several times spoken before of the team - in a sensational way since illuminate the eyes of the player, you should see! At the first contact with him is awe in the faces. Once you often talk to him, but he takes a reverence these really incredibly fast. He has an aura that arrives at each. Whether that's a talent or a veteran.
And what he did because now in such demand?
There are mostly questions that go beyond the bigger picture. And he often asks for the development of individual players. The people would be surprised if they knew how exactly he knows about our talents, well into the lower junior level. Sometimes I ask myself, how he does it all. But to make it.
The Second Division is away with the U 23, U 19 is the only sixth. , , is the U 17 just the greatest pleasure, as the leader?
The table image is not our only yardstick. The U 19 had major injury problems. Anyone who believes that in the junior work everything is controlled with a snap of the fingers, is wrong. Whoever wants to make a difference, who takes time. Therefore, we are guided by tables not madden.
Neither of an environment that increasingly impatient asks: Where is now the next Alaba, the next Müller?
It is legitimate for the environment thinks so. Our professional team is just unique, it is unique claims derive, for our juniors. , ,
, , , and unique problems: Nowhere is it so hard to convict talents to the pros, but nowhere the reputation as demanding.
Yes. But simply can indeed everyone. Our aim must be that we say in five years: The pros are still unique - and we did it, while integrating four, five own talents.
The term "bird's eye" scored with you a double meaning: As it is with the youth of FC Bayern in December 2015?
We have ad hoc screws tackled. The permeability within the vintages about is greater than before. We have very good transfers made such as Timothy Tillman and have so far never been in the planning for the new season. But I think that we have an education problem in the whole of Germany. , ,
In what way?
When I use the U 19-, 17- U, U-15 Bundesliga look at me so, I note: The teams are tactically all at incredible levels - but at the expense of individuality. But individuality is at the end of what has to arrive at the above professionals.
What is the solution?
The individuality is lost because early with young players is crammed tactics. As I see U-15 games and think to myself: madness, as the move already, unbelievable! But if you then ask me for a talent that I want to see again, I must fit. The tactic stifles individuality. I want there now do not say: Back to basics! But again we need more players who make the difference, from the team's tactical structure out. I do not negate the tactics, it is important. But I want to see again preferably promoted the individual training.
Germany needs more specialists again.
You have to let it be a specialist to specialist, must not make the idler him. Just we need at Bayern players who tie break in a confined space, have ideas. Against an opponent who defended deep with all hands, I need the specialists with his promptings. I miss those guys in the whole of Germany.
They said that the plans for the new season are as far as ever. Under what premise you make transfers? Last summer was in the youth sector at Bayern spent more than before.
The market calls prices, unbelievable. Since we can not go as a club against. We are internally agree that just junior transfers should always proceed at a reasonable level - a transfer fee is always a backpack, with a young player to everything else needs to be done in addition once. Sometimes he is too heavy, then fails the greatest talent. The media, which is clearly ticking so: As soon as Bayern paid a sum X is an adolescent, the same as the stamp has it: top talent! But that's not true, yes, that's not fair.
English million will muddle the football term. If youth work more important than ever? The famous fixed deposit account is also not infinite.
I still do not see the big million flooding that target talents. , ,
, , , Manchester City has invested 18 million euros in youngsters. , ,
The already. But where are these so-called young stars? One of my favorite players, José Tasende, born in 1997, they have brought for 4.5 million of Villarreal - who plays now the partner club FC New York. Transfers are one thing, training is another. If I have a lot of money available, I run also risk spending it recklessly. We need to counter with arguments - and good education is an important argument. We definitely did not join this million game to the extent that we have to find other creative ways. And therein we are good.
Fan-hearts beat faster at the thought that a team with grown core of a multi-million dollar mercenaries snatches the title.
Currently there is still that way. Manchester City has invested well over one billion - the title yield is manageable. International is fizzles.
Speaking of romance: Guardiola reads his players may times before. Also, you say that if it does not fit, why? If it happened already?
Earlier ever. This year I unpacked only now and then a quote. The much-quoted Wolfsrudel of Rudyard Kipling's first Jungle Book, for example: "The strength of the Wolf is the Pack and the strength of the Pack is the Wolf." Will say: The individual is as strong as the team, the team as strong as individuals. It benefits from each other. All as a lone wolf? No chance! And just as a team? As you reach a certain level, but you will come up against limits. In football, it is important that you learn to play his part.
We talked about issues that go beyond the bigger picture. They meet occasionally with the sports psychologist Christian Marcolli who works among others with Roger Federer.
With Chris I already connects long friendship. He often has a different perspective. Every now and then the right, but always an extra. The talks about how you can still tease out at the highest level nuances. Both I as a coach for me and my players. It goes beyond a certain level always to enable final percentages.
Can you give a concrete example of Europe?
