Fans want Pep Guardiola banned for two actions during Man City’s comeback win vs Luton Town

Fans have demanded Pep Guardiola be banned after his actions during Manchester City vs Luton Town.

On Sunday afternoon, City had to dig deep as they came from 1-0 down to win 2-1 against newly promoted Luton at Kenilworth Road.

Bernardo Silva cancelled out Elijah Adebayo’s first-half goal before Jack Grealish netted the winner in the 65th minute.

However, fans have taken to social media to demand City boss Guardiola be banned after he approached the referee and also celebrated outside his technical area.

One fan said: “Arteta was ban from yesterday match for celebrating a goal. But Pep Guardiola can walk onto the pitch and threaten an official.”

Another tweeted: “No yellow card for Guardiola jabbing his finger in the face of the 4th official whilst berating him?! Amazing restraint and tolerance levels on display from the officials when it's not Klopp.”

A third fan added: “It’s inconsistent. Like Guardiola here - this was today, unpunished yet on Tuesday Arteta gets a yellow for doing the same thing.”

After Arsenal’s dramatic 4-3 win against Luton on Tuesday night, manager Mikel Arteta was booked for over-celebrating Declan Rice’s late winner.

Despite being shown a yellow card, Arteta said he will continue to show emotion on the touchline.

He said: “I don't know how to stop it. It was a really emotional moment with everybody bouncing around and you lose sense of where you are and the space you have to be in.

“It was unfortunate as now I cannot be next to my team on the touchline but it is a decision that they make looking strictly at the rules.”

Arteta continued: “I would like to be with my players because we work closely every single day to achieve what we want, which is to win the games and when you get those moments in sport you should be able to do that.

“I understand as well that there are certain boundaries and you have to respect that you are at an away ground but if I was given the chance I would be there jumping.”
