Julia Roberts breaks Pep's heart by posing with Ten Hag

Julia Roberts has doubled down on her love for Manchester United despite Pep Guardiola calling himself a failure for not being able to attract her to Manchester City

Manchester United superfan Julia Roberts has posed with manager Erik ten Hag and his star players months after Pep Guardiola named the Hollywood A-lister as one of his three idols in life.

The Spaniard's bizarre admission came after Manchester City completed the Treble with Champions League glory and years after she visited the red side of the city.

United wrote on Instagram: "Always great to see you, @JuliaRoberts."

One comment said in response: "Somebody check on Pep Guardiola." A second posted: "Pep is punching the air right now."

A third added: "Pep is so jealous of Erik." A fourth agreed: Pep's worst nightmare."

Julia beamed while meeting the Old Trafford colleagues, even placing a motherly hand on the midriff of star striker Marcus Rashford.

Guardiola had said back in May after City lifted the Champions League for the first time: "I am a failure in the Champions League, I’m sorry. I’m going to explain a secret.

"Even if we win this Champions League or three in a row, I will be a failure. I have three idols in my life: Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods and Julia Roberts.

"Julia Roberts came to England a few years ago in the period when Manchester United were not good, we were better, and she came to Manchester United, she didn’t come to us.

"Even if I win the Champions League, it cannot make up for Julia Roberts not coming to see us."

Guardiola has grown close with City's famous fans including Noel and Liam Gallagher down the years, but might cherish a recent message from Julia more.

She wrote on Instagram at the culmination of last season: "Congratulations @pepteam for leading your team to be UCL champions."
