Guardiola is now head coach of Manchester City after three seasons with Bayern and Ribery has wasted no time in criticising his former boss.
Bayern lost 5-3 to AC Milan on Wednesday in a penalty shoot-out after their friendly in Chicago finished 3-3 after extra-time.
Ribery netted twice, including converting a 90th minute penalty, and has found his form after injury restricted his number of appearances last season.

Carlo Ancelotti, 57, replaced Guardiola as Bayern coach for the 2016/17 season.
According to Ribery, 33, Ancelotti is an experienced coach, "totally different" from Guardiola, who "has not had a long career as a coach" and the player says he feels "motivated and liberated" again on the pitch.
"I don't need a coach to tell me what I have to do right on the pitch when I have the ball," added Ribery.
Ribery said, Spaniard's lacked experience. "He is still a young coach. He lacks experience. Sometimes he (Guardiola) talks too much, football is very simple," added the Frenchman.
Ribery also criticised Guardiola for not starting Thomas Mueller for Bayern's 1-0 defeat at Atletico Madrid in the the Champions League's semi-final.
"You can't make a mistake in the semi-finals of the Champions League, you have to have the big names, your best players, on the field," added Ribery.
