Fans joke City need ‘116th charge’ after seeing what Guardiola did in interview

  /  autty

MANCHESTER CITY manager Pep Guardiola went viral for all the wrong reasons during his pre-match interview ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Arsenal.

Guardiola saw his City side snatch a last-gasp 2-2 draw at the Etihad thanks to a dramatic equaliser by John Stones in the eighth minute of stoppage time.

That worked as a massive result for the undefeated Citizens who are still top of the Premier League table with four wins out of five games and one point separating them from second-placed Liverpool.

This comes during a challenging season for the reigning Prem champions as they are facing a whopping 115 charges alleging financial fair play rule breaches.

And fans joked Man City should be charged with a 116th breach from the Prem because of what Guardiola did in his pre-match interview.

The ex-Barcelona boss spoke to Sky Sports and while the interviewer was asking the question the 53-year-old was caught playing with his spit.

One fan tweeted: "Enough is enough. This should be the 116th charge."

Another commented: "Pep Guardiola putting spit on the end of his tongue there then. That was delightful. 116th charge please."

A third asked: "Why is Pep playing with his spit during an interview?"

This fan said: "So gross."

And that one stated: "That spit thing Pep does is knocking me sick."

City face relegation, points deductions or huge fines if found guilty of the charges brought to them by the Prem.

Guardiola's side could also be kicked out of all of England's domestic competitions.

In addition, there is no certainty that the Manchester giants would be able to compete in the Champions League and Club World Cup either.

However, SunSport understands that it is unlikely that City would be dumped from all competitions despite the rules allowing for it to happen.
