Pep Guardiola, coach of Manchester City, responded sarcastically to accusations that he was upset with Jack Grealish for showing off in front of the cameras, stating that he does it for his ego and because he is "the most famous person on the team."

The Spanish coach scolded Grealish on the field after the goalless draw against Arsenal last Sunday, which sparked criticism that such matters should be addressed in the locker room rather than publicly.

"I do it for the cameras, for my ego. I am the most famous person on the team, and if it's recorded, I can sleep soundly because I am satisfied," Guardiola said in a clear sarcastic tone.

"I always try to criticize the players and make them feel how bad they are, and if there is any compliment, it's for me, not for the players," he added on Monday at a press conference before facing Aston Villa.

Guardiola's words coincide with the release of a documentary on the Netflix platform that revisits Manchester City's treble-winning season last year.
