  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Guardiola was spotted raising six fingers at Liverpool fans after being mocked by supporters during Manchester City's 2-0 defeat to the Reds at Anfield. The gesture was in reference to City's six Premier League titles won under Guardiola after the City boss had been told he was "getting sacked in the morning". The defeat ensured City's dismal run of form continued, with Guardiola's men winless in their last seven games across all competitions.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    The 53-year-old's antics have drawn comparisons with Mourinho, who has made a habit of using gestures throughout his managerial career. Mourinho famously held up three fingers towards the end of his stint at Manchester United, and it has been put to Guardiola that his recent actions, coupled with the team's poor form, could be compared to the Portuguese's situation at Old Trafford.

  • WHAT GUARDIOLA SAID

    He told reporters: "I hope not in my case... He won three, I won six.. but we are the same like that. We are together in the those situations. To make our fans know that we are much, much better than the people that sing that [Liverpool fans singing sacked in the morning]. It [the gesture] was just to make our fans feel that what we have done is extraordinary. I want to prove that we are an incredi­ble football club. Sooner or later it’s going to be the end but I will try to extend as much as possible for the best of my club.”

    WHAT NEXT FOR GUARDIOLA

    Guardiola's chances of adding another Premier League title to his collection at City this season now look slim, with his team 11 points behind leaders Liverpool. The Cityzens return to action on Wednesday against Nottingham Forest.
