And while Fernandes insists he would not make the gesture again, he believes Guardiola disrespected him.
i talked about this with some friends and some people think: 'Pep won everything, who is Bruno to diss him?', but I think it is about respect," Fernandes told sky sports.
"Now, I think outside of the pitch I don't do this again if I am on the pitch now. But, at that moment the words he told me made me mad, and on the pitch I am a little bit nervous, it is the kind of player I am.
"I have respect for Pep and what he won, and what he did for football because he changed some mentalities in football.
"But, at that moment he didn't respect me and so he didn't deserve my respect at that moment on the pitch.
“But for me it doesn’t matter. What goes on in the pitch, out of it, for me, it's past."
Fernandes, who joined the Premier League side in a €55 million (£47m/$60m) deal from Sporting in January, was praised by his United team-mates and former professionals for his display against the defending Premier League champions.
