Ten Hag will use this as motovation, he’s taking the piss.
"I have the feeling United are coming back," said Pep Guardiola is my idol in jinx attempt

Does this throwaway comment by Pep really need a thread of its own and a BBC article? The media in the UK is really odd
Remember when everyone was laughing at United?
Well they ain't laughing now.
Well they ain't laughing now.
They. Are. Worried.
If anything we’re a dream for Pep. We’ve taken points off everyone around City who could be called a threat to them, while rolling over for them ourselves.
His contact is up next summer but is there any indication of a reneval?
Although there's a huge difference between top speed and acceleration, no-one can convince us Maguire is anywhere near fast in the scheme of the premier league!
I read these quotes as him being a bit cheeky and having a pop at us. Why would a result at home to a team from Moldova make anyone worried? Pep is playing games.
Let's just concentrate on ourselves. We are improving but we've got a long way to go as yet.

They will probably offer him 100m to stay if that's what it takes. He won't be leaving.
For a manager that is supposed to be our rival he sure does like chiming in with his two cents about us. Part of me thinks he regrets taking the City job when he could’ve built a much stronger legacy at a prestigious club like United, rather than hollow trophies obtained through suckling on the tainted teat of the Emirati oil barons.
The result is irrelevant, the performance is more telling. We had a few players missing and swapped out others who have been playing and remained utterly dominant. We’re blatantly a quality centre forward away from putting doubt into every managers head.
I can believe he’s being genuine, because the shoots of recovery from us are utterly blatant, we just need to keep it up.
Nah you've gone too early there mate. A genuine world class striker would be great but we need more than that realistically.
The main thing is though we are getting better.
Pep does like to play games too. I don't listen to much he has to say. Strange he'd even talk about us this week as well.
I can tell you something that's not coming back:
His hair
His hair
Pep playing mind games as usual.
I didn’t say we’d beat them, I said we’d be worrying them. Going off our showings against Chelsea and Spurs in recent weeks I’m fairly confident in that suggestion.
That one addition probably wouldn’t be enough over the course of a season, but with our improvements we’d have a punchers shot toe to toe with anyone with that one addition.
feck pep, the figurehead of the gulf sportwashing project. Don’t give a shite what he thinks of us.
This. Happy to pick up his paycheck from Abu Dhabi while complaining about human rights in Catalonia. Hypocriticial cnut.
While I’ve no problem with calling out accepting the money from Abu Dhabi, there’s nothing at all wrong with his valid complaints about Catalunya. Everyone is a hypocrite to some extent when you do even the tiniest bit of digging, whether that be eating dates from Israel who are enforcing an apartheid state, using electronics/wearing clothes from China with their concentration camps packed full of Uighur Muslims.
He knows we're miles off yet but we've had more control in recent weeks.
Not everything needs to be mind games. It's just a normal observation that is clear to everyone. Pep was never a mind games type of guy, he goes out of his way to be nice all the time. Don't overthink it.
True. But Pep is a bigger one than most.
True, I’ve no complaints with it. I don’t see any issue with anyone raising legitimate human rights complaints even if they’re silent (or in his case, compliant) to others
What was wrong with the second half you bald cnut?!
Maybe he didn't watch the last 45..
Maybe. Probably scared.
With Liverpool and Chelsea having a bad season, Pep genuinely needs you to have a good season.
Definitely.
No he doesn't
Arsenal will shit the bed like they always do, they're much more capable of wrecking their own season than United/Chelsea.
That was a poor analysis I thought. Spent too much time on Brentford. Dismissed spurs cuz it's spurs. Saying we had difficulty doing much in final 3rd against Omonia. As you can see by the comments on there.
I have no idea what message you are replying to
Couldn’t care less what he thinks of us.
What would this Pep Guardiola is my idol know.
How did they change Pep Guardiola is my idol to Pep is my idol?
Bald frawd
These coaches are just playing mind games hoping we'll get cocky. Like when Klopp said we'd be super duper organised under Ragnik.
Now watch us lose v west ham
I agree. Think, always have, he likes United, and for him it would have been much better if, as our manager, he won trophies, instead with City. He would not end up there if no oil money. Would not even think about it. Left Barca for another big club in Europe only to go to little, no one heard of club before their lottery win.
He said finally, don't think his is doing mind games, think he actually likes the fact we are slowly but firmly getting back. Strong and good United will be chalenge for him to win and if so will be very important. And don't forget, he and Erik may not be best of friend, but there is lots of mutual respect.
He did say Erik could replace him at City when he leaves.
He can p*** off with that now, Erik is ours!!!
Ah yeah true. Big brain Pep.
Bawuld Froooaud
Was trying to find video interview, if he did one, while talking about United. Nothing. I found this.
