PEP GUARDIOLA'S tentacles stretch remarkably far and wide in football.
We all know how much influence he has on his own doorstep, as part of his mission to be remembered as the best manager of all time.
But Manchester City are not the only beneficiaries of the Spaniard's trophyladen greatness.
Guardiola's impact on the game is so powerful, he can help persuade the might of Bayern Munich to make Vincent Kompany their next manager.
He can get the German giants to overlook Kompany's inexperience and the fact he led Burnley to relegation last season with 24 defeats.
It is understood Guardiola spoke with his former bosses in Munich about who could be the ideal coach for them.
And when Kompany's name came into the conversation, Guardiola's reference for the Belgian could not have been more glowing.
On what basis Guardiola thinks Kompany has what it takes to make the leap from Burnley to the Bavarian beast that is Bayern, is anyone's guess.
