Ruud Gullit believes that Pep Guardiola will struggle to achieve the success he had at Barcelona because he will not have same kind of players he had at the Spanish club.

Dutch legend Ruud Gullit has claimed that former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola will struggle to repeat his success at any other club.

The 41-year-old, who won 14 trophies during his four years as Barca coach, has been linked to replace Rafael Benitez as the Chelsea manager at the end of the season.

"I think what Pep [Guardiola] did with Barcelona is difficult to repeat," said Gullit. "Also because he had the players there.

"You cannot do the same thing twice, especially not in another culture. I remember with other cultures, they try because they think they have a formula, and it doesn't apply everywhere. No, it doesn't."

Guardiola is currently on a one-year sabbatical in New York after leaving Barcelona at the end of last season.
