Wigan Athletic v Manchester City - The Emirates FA Cup Fifth Round — A livid Guardiola

#4 Smiling fury

When a manager is swearing in a press conference by using the F-word in Spanish, you have to put that on the list of the moments he lost his cool. This is what Pep Guardiola did before Barcelona’s Champions League semi-final clash against Real Madrid in 2011.

After a whole season of the Portuguese lamenting on referee supporting Barcelona in matches, Pep Guardiola had enough and took on the off-field war against him in the above press conference.

The Catalan labelled Mourinho as the “***king boss” when it came to winning war of words and stated that he will do his part on the pitch. And he said most of it with a smile on his face.

In the end, Guardiola did keep his word as Barcelona overcame Real Madrid in the semis.
