Pep Guardiola has nothing but respect for José Mourinho. The two technicians had a slight disagreement after a gesture by the Spaniard against Liverpool. Mocked by Reds supporters after his team’s defeat (2-0 at Anfield), the Manchester City coach showed, with his fingers, the number of Premier Leagues won under Liverpool’s nose (6), thus repeating the gimmick of the Portuguese who had done the same thing under the whistles of Stamford Bridge while managing Manchester United. The Portuguese reminded his old crowd that he won three Premier Leagues with Chelsea.
“Guardiola said something about me… he won six trophies and I won three, but I won fairly and cleanly”explained the Fenerbahce coach after his team’s match against Besiktas, responding to a first dig from his former rival. The Catalan, however, wanted to calm things down quickly. “If I offended him, I am very sorry. But it was a joke. The fact is he has three, I have six. It’s a fact, but the intention was completely good.assured the 53-year-old technician before adding,“With our teams, him with Chelsea, me with Man City, we can sit at the table with Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger, for the many titles we have won. »
