He said they should share “not so much on social media — the less they know what you are doing the better. People are waiting. Waiting to see where you are”.
Grealish’s partner Sasha Attwood and up to ten relatives were at his £5.6million Cheshire home on Wednesday night when they heard burglars upstairs.
They pressed a panic alarm before the raiders fled with £1million of watches and gems, despite extensive perimeter fencing and security.
Grealish, who was playing away at Everton, had only just moved in to the property.
On Christmas Day he and Sasha posted a festive photo with their dog Skye, shared with more than 10 million followers.
Grealish, 28, also posted a picture of a dining table with a Christmas Day menu.
The Sun can reveal that detectives are speaking to the team that installed the security system at his home.
The ordeal has also left model and influencer Sasha, 27, “absolutely devastated”.
Guardiola said his £100million man, expected to play today against Sheffield United, will find it “tough to process”.
He added: “It is what it is today in the modern world.
“Yes it was a bad moment for him and his family but, fortunately, the family was not hurt.”

Guardiola compared it to the 2021 ordeal suffered by City’s defender Joao Cancelo, now on loan at Barcelona.
The player was battered after confronting four raiders who broke into his home in Hale, Greater Manchester, while he was there with his family.
The Spanish boss said of the spate of break-ins: “It has happened to Manchester United players as well. I don’t know much about London but it’s happened there.
“They have security. But unfortunately it’s happened — it’s happened many times.
“In the UK, in Catalonia where my family lives, many things happen. Today you have to be careful, definitely.
“Unfortunately it happened with Joao Cancelo, which was so scary because the family was being attacked.
“Jewellery, money, whatever — it’s tough — but the family being there is tough to process for Jack, as it was with Joao.”
Last year, then-City winger Riyad Mahrez had £500,000 of items stolen from his Manchester pad, including watches he had posted pictures of on social media.
Cheshire Police are appealing for info on the latest break-in.
