If you give it back to Pep Guardiola, you had better be in the right, and even then it isn't wise.
Rodri had just gone off after a lengthy stoppage, and Walker had been called over by the referee for some admin before a quick restart that left City exposed. Arsenal sent the ball down the City right and were quickly level thanks to a wonderful Ricardo Calafiori strike.
Guardiola kicked his chair in frustration, and aimed some words of anger in Walker's direction. Walker gave it back in the middle of his protests to the referee, and he was rattled for the next 25 minutes until the break.
In fairness to Walker, Guardiola offered an apology of sorts by saying he was angry with his captain at the time, but can understand his player's annoyance given he was out of position but then Guardiola insisted City still needed to defend the counter-attack far better.
