Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere, but did the two managers have some words as they shook hands following the match?

PEP: "We would've gotten away with it if it wasn't for your meddling kids."

Pep answered a question in his post-match presser that he ”jokingly” said ”you shouldn’t talk about handballs, not today” or something along those lines, probably referring to some incident during the game where Ole wanted a handball against City called. Not sure if that was what he said after the final whistle but I believe so.

Probably more about the penalty call they had against Fred in the box just before half time.

'Show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser...'
...is the kind of self-justifying nonsense that passes for sports philosophy.

It looked like Ole was a bit gutted after the exchange, like Pep had made a shitty remark to him. You could audibly hear him say 'okay...?' and look a bit bewildered as Pep wanders off.

HELLO
I saw Pep in Greggs today. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a cnut and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away to eat my steak bake, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen baguettes in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the sandwiches and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each sandwich and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

I noticed it too. Pep seemed a little bitter. Probably about the VAR decisions.
Pep’s always bitter after losing... which is a good thing. But often he becomes sarcy and passive aggressive in post match interviews which is a bit petulant cos the guys are just doing their jobs and strange that the media still love him.

It’s was some time In April 2009 and I was in Barcelona, bumped into Pep in some park. Told him “dude just shave it all off and put the emphasis on stylish clothes”. He seemed astounded that he hadn’t thought of it himself and thanked me dearly and asked if I could offer advice on another problem he had, the upcoming El Classico the following month... I looked at him and spoke hand covering my mouth to avoid the lip readers that Madrid had undoubtedly sent to spy on him and said “false 9”. The look of shock and confusion came over his face and he ask “De feck is that?”
Lets go have a coffee and I’ll explain. The rest as they say is legendary.
