Pep Guardiola provided a memorable press conference moment on Tuesday night when, unprompted, he recalled being snubbed by his "idol" Julia Roberts.

Even if I win the Champions League it will not compare for the fact that Julia Roberts came to Manchester and didn’t come to see us. “And she went to visit Man United. She came in the period when we were better than United, four or five years ago, right? “I am a failure in the Champions League,’ Guardiola said. “I have three idols in my life. 🗣️ "Julia Roberts, she went to visit Man United.

Pep Guardiola Insists That He's a Failure Because Julia Roberts ... (Sportscasting)

In modern soccer, few men have the resume of Pep Guardiola. He, however, apparently lacks the approval of one of his idols: Julia Roberts.

So, that’s why, this is, even [if] I win the Champions League, it will be compared to the fact that Julia Roberts came to Manchester and don’t come to see us.”Pep Guardiola Maybe his insistence that he’s a failure is tied to that? If you know anything about Pep, you’ll know that he’s a perfectionist who is always seeking out the next challenge. “Listen, I’m going to explain a secret,” Guardiola said after his team demolished RB Leipzig in the Champions League. Others take a more holistic approach and try to assess the overall impact that someone has made on the game. While that would already be enough to write his name in soccer history, the Spaniard wasn’t done there.

Manchester City manager got tactics spot on against Leipzig and made clear the sceptics should trust him as he laid out the intricacies.

The pieces appear to be in place. We are talking about it and we are working because we try to make the process sometimes quicker. You are going to play in this way?’ The selection of the team … For Guardiola, the Champions League continues to tantalise. Back to the midfield. What has enraged Guardiola in the majority of City’s Champions League exits has been the defensive errors, how they have given away goals. “We struggled [in the first leg] with the contact [between] the central defenders and the full-backs … It was not the case. Guardiola was on safer ground when he discussed another sensitive area – his team selections for the big Champions League ties. Guardiola had described himself as a “failure in the Champions League”. Describing the Hollywood actor as one of his three idols in life – the others are Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods – he wondered why Roberts had taken in United’s home game against West Ham, where she was given the full A-list treatment, a walk on the pitch and so on, and snubbed him. How can he blend a subtle possession game with the imperative to involve Erling Haaland as much as possible and spring him forward quickly?

Julia Roberts and Harry Styles: The Manchester tug of war over ... (The Athletic)

Julia Roberts prefers Manchester United to neighbours City, much to Pep Guardiola's chagrin, and celebs are commonplace at Old Trafford.

United lost 4-0 and a mate of mine STILL won’t listen to Simply Red because of it. Kevin Kennedy, who played Curly Watts in Manchester-set soap opera Coronation Street is a Blue, as is Nick Leeson who helped with the collapse of Barings Bank. Roberts had clearly got the bug and while she’s never been spotted with a carrier bag of cans waiting for a midweek train to Newcastle away, she came back for more. Lord Of The Rings movies and Lost actor Dominic Monaghan co-presented an ‘I love United’ event in LAs last week with Andy Cole and Diego Forlan. I was so happy to see him, and the kids were too. Cricketers Carlos Brathwaite and Sam Billings are both match-going Reds (when not playing cricket), as are Ian Brown and Mani from The Stone Roses, most of the Happy Mondays, Ed O’Brien from Radiohead and Ed Simons from The Chemical Brothers. The American actor is a United fan and watched the team train twice in both 2017 and 2018 – when she also went to see them play. “Taking the kids to training was one of the more magical experiences of my life,” Roberts told Gemma Thompson for United’s club media. She and Finn then sent handwritten notes to people at Old Trafford as a mark of their appreciation. Harry’s dad, Des, goes to games like a normal fan with his mates from Holmes Chapel in Cheshire. One described her as: “One of the nicest people I’ve ever met. The Erin Brockovich star is also represented by the same agents as the club’s then-manager Jose Mourinho.
