Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has admitted he is not proud of his emotional outbursts in the dressing room, acknowledging his struggle to keep his composure in high-pressure moments.
Guardiola’s fiery side is showcased in the upcoming documentary Together: 4-In-A-Row, which offers a behind-the-scenes look at City’s historic pursuit of their fourth consecutive Premier League title. In one clip, the 53-year-old passionately addresses his team, exclaiming, “That’s why no one has done four Premier Leagues in a row! Because it’s so difficult!”
The documentary highlights several moments when Guardiola’s frustrations boiled over, including matches against Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace. Notable incidents include Rodri’s red card against Forest and Phil Foden conceding a late penalty against Palace, both of which left Guardiola visibly upset.

Reflecting on his reactions, Guardiola admitted:
“I’m not proud of my behavior sometimes, especially after games when emotions run high, and I let my anger affect the players. I’m human and make mistakes, but I don’t like reacting that way. Being down to 10 men or conceding unnecessary penalties makes it hard to stay calm.”
Despite his intense approach, Guardiola’s passion and drive remain integral to his success, as City aim to continue their dominance in English football.
