Pep Guardiola shares insights on Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher’s true character
Liam Gallagher, the frontman of Oasis, has consistently been known as one of the most spirited personalities in the music industry—unafraid to express his thoughts and never shying away from a clash. However, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola experienced a unique side of the “Wonderwall” vocalist away from the public eye, revealing a stark contrast to his tough persona. Guardiola attended Oasis’ homecoming performance at Heaton Park earlier this year—the band’s first concert in their hometown since 2009—accompanied by his daughter Maria. At this performance, he not only enjoyed the lively atmosphere and joined in on the classics, but he also had the opportunity to meet the Gallagher brothers, both ardent supporters of Manchester City, along with their families. While Guardiola was already acquainted with Noel Gallagher, who frequently attends matches at the Etihad, this marked the first time he encountered Liam, and he has since shared his thoughts on that interaction. “It’s the first time I knew Liam,” he remarked (via The Mirror). “Many times I’ve been with Noel, but I never met Liam before, and I encountered him before the concert, and he was very kind.”He is an Oasis fan.He adores Manchester.He supports Manchester City.We admire Pep Guardiola. pic.twitter.com/mzX8uMcqHM— City Xtra (@City_Xtra) July 12, 2025In regard to the concert, Guardiola was highly laudatory, labeling Oasis as “the ultimate rock band in the past half-century” while drawing parallels to his own City team. “I’m not sure how many countries they sold out, but it illustrates their excellence,” he stated. “When (people) assert that this team will be among the greatest, I always respond, ‘Ask me in 25 years.’ Then, if people still mention that team, it was indeed a remarkable team.”He continued: “It’s akin to Oasis, right? They return and sell out globally, and that’s due to their talent. Otherwise, those shows wouldn’t be sold out.”It appears even the most legendary rock artists can exhibit a gentle side, after all.READ THE LATEST FASHION, CULTURE AND LIFESTYLE CONTENT FROM 90MIN
