- Pep pictured with Gallagher family before show
- Manchester rockers play massive Heaton Park gig
- City boss belts out smash hit with daughter
The returning rockers played their first of five Heaton Park shows on Friday night. Guardiola attended the gig with his daughter, taking time to pose alongside the Gallaghers’ children for a photo posted to Instagram. The City manager was clearly enjoying himself, belting out the anthem which has become a regular feature of the club’s celebrations over recent years. After City’s 2021 title victory, a video of Guardiola singing ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ while smoking a cigar went viral.
Guardiola must have been feeling the love of his adopted hometown last night. Liam showed his appreciation for the Catalan’s efforts over the past decade, dedicating a song to the “greatest f*cking manager of all time”. Roughly 80,000 people attended the homecoming show, which ended with a massive firework display.
City may well be tempted to look back on their previous campaign with a dose of anger. The Citizens failed to win a major trophy for the first time in eight years. Pep’s preparations for the coming term will start in earnest over the next few weeks, with the Sky Blues kicking off their Premier League season against Wolves on August 16 at Molinuex.
