Pep Guardiola prefers Julia Roberts to the Champions League – 03/20/2023 – Sandro Macedo

Julia Roberts is a beautiful woman. Pep Guardiola is a beautiful coach. Both are beloved and award-winning in their activities. And they also shared the trend topics on Twitter on Saturday (18), the day Manchester City crushed yet another rival (6-0 against poor Burnley) and on which Globo reprized once again the delicious “A Beautiful Woman”.

Interestingly, many comments linked the two names on the social network. That’s because Pep and Julia have a connection – which the actress was unaware of.

The story of cinema and resentment was made public in a humorous interview by the Spanish coach after City’s 7-0 rout (another) against Red Bull Leipzig, which earned the English team a spot in the Champions League quarterfinals. League —every interview after a 7-0 is humorous on the winning side, by the way.

As is often the case, Guardiola is questioned whether his success at the helm of the club depends on winning the Champions League. After all, City have won everything there is to win on English soil more than once, but have failed miserably in the coveted Champions League. At most, it won one final – and lost precisely to a local rival in the worst stage, Chelsea.

It was then that Pep said: “I’m a failure in the Champions League. Even if we win three Champions Leagues in a row, I’ll be a failure.” And then he confided the three idols of his life: Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods and Julia Roberts. And then explained his failure.

In 2017, Julia Roberts took a trip to Manchester and visited rival club United. And the visit was not at the time when Alex Ferguson was winning everything, recalls Pepito, it was at the time when he and his City began to dominate local competitions. Pep was probably more hurt by Julia’s snub than he would have been by a goal disallowed by VAR in the last minute.

To make matters worse, a few days after Pep’s revelation, a journalist mentioned the case in an interview with Tottenham coach Antonio Conte. [jornalista provavelmente mal-intencionado e com humor inglês… canalhas]. And Conte replied something like: “Julia Roberts? I remember her, she visited Chelsea when I was there, I had the opportunity to meet her in the dressing room. It’s good when someone like her likes football.”

Ready. Pepito is probably crying in some dark room to “Abrazame” or another Julio Iglesias hit — or the soundtrack to “Uma Linda Mulher.”

Spiteful, Pepito felt in his skin something that money from the Arab world (which bought City) has difficulty buying in football: tradition. Not that City is a team born in the 1970s and with little history (like PSG), but it doesn’t compare to the glorious past of neighboring United.

Pep joked about Julia’s case, but deep down he was talking about that, tradition. And even a Champions League maybe won’t change the history of the club, it takes a little more.

This year things are not so easy for Pepito and his blue caps. In the Premier League, Arsenal (uhu) seems not to let go of the bone and continues to insist on staying ahead of City, with less than a third left to finish the championship.

And, in the prestigious and dreamed Champions League, the draw probably put the two most feared teams face to face: City x Bayern Munich. It would not be unusual to see the German team impose another continental defeat on Guardiola.

But… if by chance Julia Roberts feels sorry for her, she could pay one more visit to Manchester (a bit far from Notting Hill) and finally get to know the blue side of the city. Who knows, maybe even accept an invitation to dinner at Pepito’s family home, with a live show by Liam Gallagher (a fanatic fan).

After all, Pep is just a coach, standing in front of a field, saying he loves football… and Julia.
