Pellegrini disrespecting the FA Cup there by wearing his MCFC hoody instead of a suit. #disgrace

As if Pellegrini is wearing a hoody. Almost makes Tim's gilet look acceptable.

The richest club in the world and they have Demichelis at centre back and a manager who looks like he shops at Jacamo pic.twitter.com/SlX0k4e0wj

Pellegrini looks like like a drugged up drunk homeless man wearing a nylon Matalan hoodie who spends his time shouting at pigeons.

Whatever the result here, surely Pellegrini's wife will be having words. That hoodie is a disgrace… #FACup

Wigan should be awarded a goal for Pelligrini's hoodie. Ut uh.

Pellegrini rocking the hoody is like my Dad wearing a pair of Nike Air Blazer. Doesn't look right. Club merchandise will be buzzing though ??

If Pellegrini takes one thing away from this match it should be to never wear that hoodie again #HoodieGate #MUFC
— StanJames.com (@stanjames) March 9, 2014
Get in Wigan! Serves Pellegrini right for wearing that absolutely disgusting hoody.
— Jono Yates (@jonoBLITZ) March 9, 2014
I think seeing Pellegrini in a hoody is one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen at a football match. Completely weird.

Pellegrini's hoody looks like it should have a list of school leavers' names on the back like the ones posh kids in Oxford wear
— Bruce Gorrie (@BruceGorrie) March 9, 2014
City didn't even give Wigan any respect. Pellegrini would never wear a hoodie when facing Wenger or Mourinho.
— Brad Gibsön (@TheGibson10) March 9, 2014
City deserved to lose as soon as Pellegrini decided he was going to wear a hoody for the game this morning.

The only time I'd ever back the 'Moyes Out' campaign is if he wore a MUFC hoodie. Jesus.??
— Gaz (@CantonaManc) March 9, 2014
Pellegrini in that hoody was a disgusting image. No one over 70 should be in a hoody. Take the cup seriously and wear a suit damn it.
