Bayern Munich legend Franz Beckenbauer says Pep Guardiola needs to win trophies to stay on the right side of fans.
Guardiola has divided opinion among the club's fans since taking charge of Jupp Heynckes' treble winning side in 2013, particularly after their European exit at the hands of Barcelona.
"Love is the biggest thing one can achieve. He will get the fans' love when he wins trophies," Beckenbauer was quoted as saying by TZ.
"If he does not win any silverware, which I cannot really see happening, love will become just affection."
Guardiola's deal expires next year and he remains a top target for Manchester City.
