Bayern Munich legend Franz Beckenbauer doesn't believe English football is in crisis.

No English club is left in European competition this season.

"It is a temporary problem," said Beckenbauer. "I am not very happy because there are no English teams in the quarter-finals. But in Germany we are having the same debate. We almost have the same problems.

"We had four teams in the Champions League but only one has survived, Bayern Munich.

"Last year the Bundesliga teams were very successful. And two years before when the final was held at Wembley, we had two teams in the final and everybody said we had the best league in the world. "It is temporary. Sometimes you are very unlucky and you get defeated. Next year is another year."
