Fans believe Pep Guardiola aimed 'dig' at two Manchester United stars ahead of Champions League final

Fans believe that Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola appeared to aim a dig at Manchester United pair David de Gea and Marcus Rashford ahead of the Champions League final.

Fans react to Guardiola's Man Utd comments

He focused on the playstyle of Inter goalkeeper Andre Onana, before comparing the hold-up play of Inter's forwards to Rashford.

He said: "It is difficult when you have that keeper [like Onana] to make a high press properly, because you cannot press the goalkeeper.

"The link to Lautaro [Martinez], [Romelu] Lukaku, Edin Dzeko, they are a master to keep the ball.

"With United, for example, the long ball with Rashford and the other one, they don't keep it. These guys [Inter], they keep it, and after they link it, they run."

Guardiola's comments received plenty of reaction from fans of United and other clubs, with some believing his Onana analysis was a direct comparison with De Gea.

One claimed, accompanied by laughing emojis: "He pretty much said Rashford can't hold the ball up."

Another agreed with Guardiola's comments, stating: "It's a fair assessment tbh."

A third wrote: "Pep thinks Inter are better than Utd and I don't blame him."

A fourth supporter added: "There's no way Erik ten Hag is watching this and thinking we're all good."

And a fifth fan said: "Rashford and De Gea catching strays."

Another fan, meanwhile, defended Rashford: "He's a runner. He prefers the wing. It's been common knowledge since his debut season that he doesn't like playing with his back to goal. His game is very, very different to Dzeko."
