Guardiola sinking
Manchester City are the defending champions, and have held that tag going into four successive campaigns. They have already made history, winning four consecutive Premier League titles; however, their chance of extending the record to five is fast disappearing.
Earlier today, they suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool, which left them 11 points adrift of the Reds, with a third of the season gone.
The defeat extended their run of losses in the Premier League to four matches, and in all competitions, they have failed to win in seven, losing six of them.
If his reaction during the bottlejob against Feyenoord is to go by, Pep is rattled, and during the defeat to Liverpool, he sunk into trolling, as he reminded the fans at Anfield of his successes.
What Guardiola did
Gakpo opened the scoring for Arne Slot’s side, and a Mohamed Salah penalty confirmed the result. On their way to victory, Liverpool fans took shots at Guardiola with their chanting.
In reply, the Spaniard raised fingers to gesture at the number of Premier League titles, most of which came directly at Liverpool's expense.
The move is reminiscent of Jose Mourinho's, who raised three fingers to derisive Chelsea fans to remind them of the number of Premier League titles he won for the Blues.
