I don't think Bayern are already at their maximum potential. If you look at recent seasons, Bayern lost to Dormunt a couple of times, they should actually dominate the league aka win the league with big difference to the second team, and also with consistence from one season to another. Especially in CL, I almost forget when Bayern won the cup the last time. They achievement in CL are not that good. If they kept reaching semifinal, than it could be their maximum but without consistency in CL and never won it since 1999 is not something their maximum potential.
I think, if Guardiola can prove himself in Bayern, he could improve Bayern performance result in enhancing especially their chance in CL.

I think Bayern hired Pep to give them that final edge to win the CL after so many years of coming close but not sealing the deal. Bayern have the kind of players to play the type of football that Pep would want so I'm looking forward to see how they do next season.
Reza: where else do you think Pep should have gone? Dortmund have been giving them a run for their money in the Bundesliga lately btw.
Siamo a posto cosi.
Like I said my point is more from Pep's perspective.
They have won the Bundesliga 5 times in last 10 years, and 10 times in last 20 years, if I am correct. I somehow doubt we will see much more improvement. Not really about how I rate Pep, it's about how much extra any coach can give them.
As far as CL, Bayern have two semifinals (or better) the last 3 years. I doubt 3 years - Pep's contact length - leaves that much room for improvement. If they reach semis every of the next 3 years it's not that big a deal compared to last 3 years. For example, minus Milito they were close in 2010.
About where else he could go? Not sure but at Bayern there is a limit at how much he can enhance his reputation. If he stays long he can win CL yes but others with chance to win are catching up (PSG and City for example) The number of teams with a shot at winning the CL may actually go up in the longer term so Bayern will have more competition.

If Bayern Munich win tomorrow and Dortmund fail to do the same, Bayern Munich will be the first team to have ever won the Bundesliga in March. Amazing.
