WATCH: The Brilliant Moment Pep Guardiola Gave Instructions To Ball Boy

Pep Guardiola's Manchester City secured another emphatic victory over a Premier League side on Saturday afternoon, smashing five past the helpless Crystal Palace.

To be honest, it was difficult first 45 for Pep's men, but the second half rout certainly changed his mood come full-time. It was then to be a routine afternoon for the Citizens.

Goals from Raheem Sterling, Leroy Sane, Sergio Aguero and Fabian Delph sent City to the top of the league on goal difference.

There was a rather bizarre moment during the game, though, that sent the internet into a frenzy.

It was a rather disappointing first half display from Manchester City and Pep Guardiola was seen to be agitated, kicking his seat in the dugout and pacing up and down the touchline.

Then during the first half, Guardiola appeared to give a ball boy instructions, or as the internet called it - a 'pep' talk.

According to a report from The Telegraph, Guardiola told the ball boy to 'get the ball back into play more quickly.'

During the game, however, the internet had their own ideas:

Can Manchester City win the league this season after a brilliant opening six games?
