They have shaken off Pep's chains," he told ARD. Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer admitted after the match that the difference in approach between Guardiola and Ancelotti is notable, but he did not criticise the methods of the Manchester City boss, who delivered three league titles and two DFB-Pokals before leaving in May."Carlo Ancelotti has a different manner in speaking to us and he has been part of the business for longer," he said."He has coached big teams and he knows how to deal with every single player. "Pep was a coach who always tried to have an influence, who always wanted to help the team. Carlo is a coach who tries to give us confidence with his calm manner."</blockquote>
