Walker posted the comment and then deleted it after holding Liverpool City 1-1 by Liverpool City at Anfield on Wednesday.
The win would have allowed Liverpool to have seven points ahead of defending champion City, who lost 2-1 to Newcastle United on Tuesday night, instead of the current five.
"So, they thought they were going to have 7 points in advance," Walker said, his comment appearing alongside a photo of Leicester scorer and English international Harry Maguire. speaking to a member of the crowd at the World Cup last year.
Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp appeared unimpressed when journalists questioned him on Friday. "I have never celebrated the fact that another team has lost points or lost a match," said the German. "For me, it's not allowed."
Guardiola, however, dismissed it.
"I'm not concerned about social media, tweeting players, Instagram …", he said. "I can not control it, the motivation is to win games (it will not be a tweet or another)."
City begins a crucial week for their title hopes by hosting Arsenal on Saturday. They will then travel to Everton Wednesday for a match before welcoming Chelsea the following Sunday.
The defeat in Newcastle was City's fourth in the league this season, but Guardiola felt that there was no lack of motivation to do better for a team fighting on four fronts, including the Champions League.
"We are not happy with the last performance, everyone was aware at half-time and at the end of the match," he said. "If we did not have motivation, we would not be here.
"When people say we are the perfect team and we are invincible, my answer is always the same, we have to improve every game … and sometimes there are ups and downs."
Guardiola said defender Benjamin Mendy, back in training after a knee injury, was likely vying for the Arsenal match but could not offer any date back for the absent captain, Vincent Kompany.
