Walker was reacting to Saturday's 2-2 draw at Newcastle United, leaving them 11 points behind leaders Liverpool.
Asked about the message from boss Guardiola in the aftermath, the fullback says it remained the same.
Walker said: It is never going to be pleasant when you drop points but he believes in us.
I have never seen a manager show so much belief and confidence in a team like he does."
