"I feel embarrassed, ashamed when I see it. I don't like it. I apologised after one second to the cameraman. I am who I am. After 1,000 games I'm not a perfect person, I make huge mistakes. The reason why is I want to defend my team and my club."
"We have known Bruno for many, many years and every time after the game, even at the Etihad, we talk in the tunnel or wherever we talk, always. I don't know what happened. Our paths always cross and I always have a good relationship with him. I love it. I'm an emotional guy, I love to talk and move my hands and my arms and everything."
Pep Guardiola apologised for pulling a cameraman's headphones following Manchester City's 2-1 defeat at Newcastle, saying he felt embarrassed and had apologised immediately. He acknowledged imperfection after more than 1,000 games and said his actions were driven by a desire to defend his team and club. There were flare-ups involving players, with goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma escorted down the tunnel and Joelinton held back by Eddie Howe. Guardiola said he has a long-standing good relationship with Bruno Guimaraes and described himself as emotional and demonstrative. City will host Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League as Guardiola approaches his 100th match in the competition.
