Man City fans boo Pep Guardiola — he responds in his usual style
Manchester City fans have come under fire for booing Pep Guardiola and his players during a turbulent moment in their 5-2 win over Crystal Palace — a reaction that has left many across the footballing world stunned.
With Man City briefly trailing and showing signs of defensive fragility, a section of the Etihad crowd voiced their frustration, booing as the team struggled to find rhythm.
However, their boos quickly turned to cheers as Kevin De Bruyne sparked a comeback, leading to a commanding win.
Guardiola’s reaction after Man City equalised said it all — intense, animated, and emotional.
Cameras caught him passionately gesturing toward the crowd, almost in disbelief, as if to say: “Really? After everything?”
His side went on to dominate the match, but the moment sparked a broader conversation online.
Indeed, under Guardiola, City have won five Premier League titles in six seasons, along with a historic treble — making the booing feel all the more ungrateful to many neutrals and rival fans alike.
