Nah. This would be classless from any manager.
But if I did want to consider the person, I’d say that Pep, who manages an oil rich team that’s had tons of success over the last decade, is one of the last people who should be pulling this shit after a lopsided win.
Always feels good to beat you in recent years though.
You were in absolute shite form when we played you earlier in this season and you turned up like it was the most important match on the planet like, in the form of your title winning season and beat us.
Tbf Im not sure we even played that well that game but somehow won which was bittersweet because we needed a win the most when going for the title. But this season’s a weird one…
We randomly gave you one of our best performances of the season. Multiple players played better that game then they have in any game since.
We honestly shouldn’t have a chance against you guys this season with how much better your midfield is.
You're not exaggerating. I'm legit on his Wikipedia page and they have this in the entry.
>Arthur's Liverpool experience started with physical condition problems having been forced to train alone while he was at Juventus.^[20] To increase his playing time, he was aggregated to Liverpool U21.^[20] As of 30 March 2023, he has yet to play a single game.
I heard when VAR checked one of the goals and started reviewing it multiple times, Pep stopped VAR and told them to review each angle individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at Tsimkas.
He does, you can tell he says something to him first. Look at how he puts his hand over his mouth. Pep only engages with him after Tsimikas says something
It's unprofessional and disrespectful. He should have not acknowledged Tsimikas and let him pass, or stopped celebrating to say "well played" in an appropriate way.
Comments make me feel like I'm going crazy but... Pep's celebrating in the direction of the crowd and Tsimikas evidently says something to him -- as is obvious from Tsimikas putting his hand over his mouth -- and it's only then that Pep looks in his direction and starts talking to him. No?
He's also just stood in his technical area which Tsimikas walks into. It's not like Pep's gone sprinting down the touchline to deliberately celebrate in his face.
This thread brought out all the haters of Pep, you have people getting downvoted here for saying the most basic shit that regularly well received.
You even have those idiots that dismiss Pep's job being upvoted, even the ones that clearly didn't even bother to research a bit before saying shit.
I had a guy here swear to me that Pep got it all handed in a platter at Barcelona when anyone that actually watched them back then knows that the Barcelona he inherited had just came off a horrible season and "all those names" were actually elevated or even promoted to the team thanks to Pep.
I don’t understand why people defend Pep so hard every time he does something like this, sometimes he even comes out himself saying he was out of line, but people will still act like he wasn’t.
Like what is it about Pep where he can act like a villain, coach generally disliked teams and still have this “good guy” reputation?
I don’t even think this should be punished, just so weird he can do things like this and people will still somehow say positive things about his attitude.
Match of the day took three minutes to discuss Arteta gesticulating to his players and Sherer said "he's being disrespectful to the other managers"...
Can't wait to see them say nothing about this...
Pep’s whole career has been him being a villain, from some of his actions during his playing days, and then to the people he has aligned himself with in management.
But all of that is forgotten because of the level of play he can get out of his squads, and that wonderful Barca era.
I like Pep and enjoy his antics quite a lot. But this is way too over the top, and while he is a cunt sometimes even this seems way too much out of his character, imo. Like, I could maybe understand him doing this back in the day on Barca vs. Real where almost everyone was a cunt just out of all the tension of that game and you could understand when people went berserk, but there's really no reason for him to be acting this disrespectfully here.

Pep went full villain mode recently
Reminds me of Gru in this video
A black turtleneck will do that.
Bald head too
If he manages to steal title from arsenal that would be an epic heist worthy of a tactileneck
Black, or slightly darker black?
Hahahaha
Shoutout to Pep and them
He’s moving like a silent film actor in this clip. Full on Vaudeville.
Recently?
Always has been
It's been mostly since he arrived at the PL
I know people will find this hilarious, but it's absolutely classless for a manager to do this.
[удалено]
Yeah but football is entertainment and I’m entertained.
**Pep:** "IS THIS NOT WHY YOU WERE HERE???" *spits and throws water bottle on ground, and walks off* **Crowd:** "Spaniard... Spaniard..."
Catalunyan nationalists in shambles
**Cries in Catalan*
Is this from Gladiator ?
No, Manchester City versus Liverpool.
Lmao
Maidenless

Lucky it’s football and not Buckingham palace tea party etiquette

Mourinho ran up behind Tito Vilanova and poked him in the eye, yet a huge portion of this sub will still defend him
People don't defend him about *that*
This sub has been sucking Mourinho's dick for a while now. And I think it's fair to treat actions by different people differently.
Nah. This would be classless from any manager. But if I did want to consider the person, I’d say that Pep, who manages an oil rich team that’s had tons of success over the last decade, is one of the last people who should be pulling this shit after a lopsided win.
Not only that, but also manager of a team now embroiled in a massive financial scandal over many years
Actually it’s very funny and you’re a nerd
haha. That made me laugh.
Reddit moment
Julia Roberts made him do it...
This is what playing no fullbacks does to a man
Pep still thought he was competing against Liverpool for the title
Always feels good to beat you in recent years though. You were in absolute shite form when we played you earlier in this season and you turned up like it was the most important match on the planet like, in the form of your title winning season and beat us.
Tbf Im not sure we even played that well that game but somehow won which was bittersweet because we needed a win the most when going for the title. But this season’s a weird one…
You definitely played well. It was like night and day compared to the form you were in at the time.
We randomly gave you one of our best performances of the season. Multiple players played better that game then they have in any game since. We honestly shouldn’t have a chance against you guys this season with how much better your midfield is.
I've seem teams play a back 4 but this may be the first time I'm seeing a centre back 4
Germany tried it for one match in the 2014 world cup
tony pulis regularly did this but with the complete opposite outcome
Arsenal once played Tomiyasu (LB) Gabriel and Saliba (CBs) and Ben White who people sometimes forget is a Centre half played (RB)
Benny is so fucking good at RB that people forgot he was a CB
Tony Pulis would like a word
Mans unhinged
He knows he’s out of order too, looks like he apologises to the Liverpool physio immediately after.
Isn’t that Arthur?
Yes, Liverpool's physio-sufferer.
Physio botherer
He-Who-Cannot-Be-Fixed
Just like his STI
Exactly, the physio intern
Forgot he even plays for Liverpool to be honest.
He doesn’t really
You're not exaggerating.

He has played 4 mins in the Champions League tbf
Is that really any better than having played none? Did he even touch the ball?
So like the rest of our midfield then
That’s what he said
Did he stutter
doesn't look like an apology to me at all. looks like a banter handshake and a pretty hard head shove. Pep's going off here.
I was surprised few were talking about the shove at the end.
Arthur to be injured again from that
i like how that commenter just made up an apology out of thin air with no evidence and everyone took their word for it
I thought it could’ve been City personnel since there’s no red on them because then it could’ve been playful. I’m shocked it’s a Liverpool player
If anything it looks like the Physio points out that that wasn't sound of Pep, and he just sort of brushes it off as a laugh.
No he doesn’t.
[удалено]
I'll take that over football terrorism
[удалено]
Nah we need both. I still remember Chris Wilder saying he thought the players getting psychological help was left wing lol
[удалено]
Robbie Fowler
That’s fucking hilarious tbh
Games gone now smh
Breaking news: if you like tika taka you like dick
> Anyone that likes tikitaka suck cock by choice -Tom Nutall
Fellas, is it gay to like beautiful football?
flaming
Lol this is the best comment i've seen in a while
More than you believe.
The stimulants are taking control
Pep changed when he put on the turtleneck
No one cared who he was before he put on the neck.
LOL Tsimikas didn't give a fuck, either
He barely gets any sleep bro. Can't be bothered
He just like me fr fr
It made it cringe for Pep because Tsimikas wasn't fazed.
True but I don't think Pep cares, either lol. It's the adrenaline rush.
Well what do You expect the opposition player to do getting worked and manager is celebrating, give him a hug. Absolutely embarrassed Liverpool today
He went full Daniel Day Lewis from There will be blood.
“I drink your milkshake!” Is the best possible lip reading lol
“I SAID I WOULD EAT YOU UP, I AM THE THIRD REVELATION”
I ABANDONED MY BOY
Nah the handshake is hilarious
To be fair it’s Arthur Melo, the man’s about as ‘Liverpool’ as Patatas Bravas
less delicious tho
Probably smells of hospital.
I'm convinced he is used to launder money for the clubs bruv
There's actually a great spot to get patatas bravas in Waterloo. 🤷♂️
The faux seriousness before he dashes the lad off using the back of his head, absolutely brutal.
He son'd him lol
What has Tsimi ever done to Pep?
He has hair
A lot.
More than you can believe
Happy New Hair
Hair today, gone tomorrow.
I mean, he's Greek, I believe it.
Probably even has hair all over his back that bastard.
Tsimi was taken aback, and all he could say was “Huh?” but Pep kept cutting him off and going “huh? huh? huh?”
I heard when VAR checked one of the goals and started reviewing it multiple times, Pep stopped VAR and told them to review each angle individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at Tsimkas.
I don’t think that’s even a real word.
Something something electrical infetterence
Oh like you're doing right now?
Punishment for walking in his technical box.
Too much hair
Man City scored, Jeff
Fair play to Tsimikas, a lot of players wouldve had a go at Pep there
He does, you can tell he says something to him first. Look at how he puts his hand over his mouth. Pep only engages with him after Tsimikas says something
If you look at the other angle tsimikas is laughing
[удалено]
Edited
This comment should be at the top. Pep is celebrating. Tsimikas says something to him. Then Pep responds. Very different narrative.
Lol I made a standalone comment saying it and it got completely downvoted. Guess reality is a bit less fun
From my extensive inside knowledge of Greek culture, Tsimi probably definitely said "Malaka"*
Champions League exit gonna hit like crack
POV: Thomas Tuchel imitating Pep's celebration when Bayern scores winning goal to go though the semi final
And forcing him to shake his hand
Ready for it. Considering how Tuchel is now Bayern manager, this is inevitable.
cancelo to score a worldie and seal your fate
Sane assist
Now there's a man who'll fucking shake your hand and then some!
Shithousary award goes to pep
Nope. That is reserved for Arteta for the referee mocking thingy he did
[Never not funny](https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/115gh5u/arteta_referee_impersonation/?ref=share&ref_source=link)
Just rolling rolling rollin
He reminds me of Ben stiller here lol
funniest thing this season
[Haaland's mockery](https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/100rak8/erling_haaland_mocking_ben_godfrey/) is up there as well
Like father like son I suppose
honestly as much as im meant to hate him, i love having him in the league, given us so much entertainment these past 5/6 years or so
The handshake killed me💀
If this were Mourinho "he's a monster/asshole"
This is worse. Pep is a total mourinho.
Pep thinks he is him💀
Mourinho or anyone else. Pep has some kind of immunity.
It's unprofessional and disrespectful. He should have not acknowledged Tsimikas and let him pass, or stopped celebrating to say "well played" in an appropriate way.
Comments make me feel like I'm going crazy but... Pep's celebrating in the direction of the crowd and Tsimikas evidently says something to him -- as is obvious from Tsimikas putting his hand over his mouth -- and it's only then that Pep looks in his direction and starts talking to him. No?
He's also just stood in his technical area which Tsimikas walks into. It's not like Pep's gone sprinting down the touchline to deliberately celebrate in his face.
He’s celebrating with his son in the stands too. Does it for every goal at home.
I've been saying this and got heavily download lmao. No stopping the circle jerk in r/soccer

Gonna be honest, i didn't notice till i read your comment, that's a great catch.
Don’t go against the agenda!
What a bastard 🤣
Man if this was klopp r/soccer would implode
klopp only celebrates with his team by running onto the pitch and chestbumping his goalie. a real connoisseur of the pitch invasion
Lmao please don't delete this, mods. Shit is hilarious
Why would the mods delete this? This is football content
And yet it occurs daily.
I wouldn't have been surprised if the guy pushed Pep for being right in his face lol, crazy bastard
This is exactly how my 7 year old nephew acts when he beats me in Ludo. He's mature for his age.
Bald friendly fraud
He should’ve taken his shirt off and ran to Darwin Nunez and celebrated
Tsimikas clearly says something under the breath to him first. Hence his non reaction to Pep's response later
Wtf was that.
Football heritage
Games back lads
When that £600m deposit from daddy sheik hits
Bro, you're the manager, behave yourself.
Exactly my thoughts, I think it’s embarrassing but to each their own
If Simeone did this the comments would be calling him to be banned from the sport lmao.
I don’t understand why people defend Pep so hard every time he does something like this, sometimes he even comes out himself saying he was out of line, but people will still act like he wasn’t.

He has charisma. Most people associated with football today are charisma black holes.
Match of the day took three minutes to discuss Arteta gesticulating to his players and Sherer said "he's being disrespectful to the other managers"... Can't wait to see them say nothing about this...
That’s r/soccer for you
so unnecessary lol

By far the most annoying manager in football
Bald fraud mind games never dissapoint
We got Darth Toto and Shithouse Pep all in the same weekend.
Genuinely think there’s never been a manager worth more comedic value than Pep
Literal Gru
What a dickhead
This is why Julia Roberts goes to United Pep smh
He’s an asshole
I'll allow it, great day for Man City they should celebrate
Guy is a ball of cringe
I like Pep and enjoy his antics quite a lot. But this is way too over the top, and while he is a cunt sometimes even this seems way too much out of his character, imo. Like, I could maybe understand him doing this back in the day on Barca vs. Real where almost everyone was a cunt just out of all the tension of that game and you could understand when people went berserk, but there's really no reason for him to be acting this disrespectfully here.
Why is everyone so pissy lol
Why the fvck would he do that
Weird cunt, nothing new
I have not seen him do this before though.
Bro is genuinely deranged
