Even before the journalists’ questions began, he took the floor to return to the discussion. “I apologize to Steven Gerrard for my stupid and unnecessary comments about him”According to the comments reported by, said at the entrance. World Eleven. “He knows how much I appreciate him and his career for what he’s done for this country. I’m ashamed of myself, he doesn’t deserve it. I truly believe in my comments about my club’s defense but I didn’t represent myself. It’s a good club by putting his name in those stupid comments. For him, his kids, his wife, his family. I’m so sorry about that. It was stupid.”, finished Pep Guardiola. The confessed defect has been rectified in half.
