Pep GuardiolaΒ hasΒ played down suggestions he has changed German football during his time at Bayern Munich.
The Spaniard will take charge of his final Bundesliga game as Bayern managerΒ when the champions host Hannover on Saturday.
Guardiola, who will join Manchester City in the summer, may have won three straight league titles with the Bavarians, but was unwilling to commentΒ on claims his style hasΒ altered German football.
"I'm not the right person to say how great my influence on German football was," he said on Friday.
"I didn't come here to change German football. I'm arrogant, but not that arrogant.
"I came here to learn, the same reason I'm going to England.
"What can I learn from the players and English football? The reason is to live in other countries and experience different ways of playing."
Guardiola joined BayernΒ after they had won just their second league crown in five years in 2012/13, but has since turned them into serial titleΒ winners
The former Barcelona coach feels his side's achievementsΒ during his spell in charge haveΒ been βoutstandingβ.
"We lost nine games in three years and five came when we were already champions," Guardiola said.Β "That is outstanding."
Midfielder Xabi Alonso will miss Hannover's trip to the Allianz ArenaΒ through a rib complaint, while Javi Martinez is also out with an ankle injury.
Guardiola is hopeful Martinez will be fit for the DFB-Pokal final against Borussia Dortmund on May 21.
However, he ruled Arjen Robben out of the clash with Dortmund as the winger continues to struggle with a hamstring problem.
