Emma Hayes makes Pep Guardiola claim as she responds brilliantly to 'stupid' question

Emma Hayes makes Pep Guardiola claim as she responds brilliantly to 'stupid' question

Emma Hayes slammed a reporter's question during her press conference.

Chelsea manager Emma Hayes referenced Pep Guardiola as she slammed a reporter's question about Arsenal's Champions League elimination.

The Gunners were knocked out of the Women's Champions League by Wolfsburg, who won the semi-final tie 5-4 on aggregate.

Pauline Bremer poked home from close range in the 119th minute to secure their spot in the final in dramatic fashion.

Hayes was quizzed about Arsenal's crushing defeat at the Emirates ahead of her side's WSL game against Liverpool.

She was asked if she had a 'degree of sympathy' for their rivals considering the manner of their defeat.

But the 46-year-old refused to comment on Arsenal being dumped out of the competition, slamming the question as she made a Guardiola claim.

"I’m the Chelsea manager. I only care about my own team," she said.

"Like I said, I’m a competitor. I always say this - would you ask Pep Guardiola the same question towards Liverpool going out or Arsenal going out?"

Hayes added: "No, so no, I'm here representing Chelsea. I only care about my own team."

Her response to the 'stupid' question went down well among Chelsea fans on social media.

One Twitter user wrote: "Perfect response to a stupid question."

A second tweeted: "Yet again... I bloody love this woman."

A third added: "Well said Emma."

A fourth said: "Journalist got cooked again lmao."

Another commented: "What a stupid question. Why would she care about her rival going out?"

Chelsea face Arsenal in the penultimate game of the season as both teams slug it out at the top end of the table.
