Manchester United fans should maybe have a word with their City colleagues.
Because they’ve already been found guilty this season of a fashion abomination at Old Trafford.

Those scarves were on sale just after Christmas as speculation intensified over Louis van Gaal’s future at Old Trafford.
Of course he is still in charge, but this week it seems that the man behind the throat-warmers may have gotten a jump on his rivals as Jose Mourinho looks all but certain to pitch up at Old Trafford next season.
Still, a bit presumptuous considering van Gaal hasn’t been sacked, and Manchester United have not responded to any rumours yet.
But at least some enterprising City fan has his facts right as there are reports of scarves on sale with Pep Guardiola’s face on them this afternoon ahead of the top of the table clash between Leicester City and Manchester City at the Etihad.

This week it was confirmed that the Bayern Munich boss will be taking over from Manuel Pellegrini and while we have no idea what price the garments may be selling at, we just have one question: was the current manager ever immortalised on a scarf?
We like the Vardy/Aguero one though, but the minion effort may not be a big seller.
@Sammy_Goal Quite possibly one of the most disgusting tweets in the history of twitter. Who buys this tat?

Anyone found wearing a Pep scarf today should be thrown out of the Etihad. Show some respect for Pellegrini #MCFC pic.twitter.com/X16NsaZAMf

And if you’re wondering where our feature image is from.
Well it’s a screen, inside the stadium, that has been showing a big picture of Pep Guardiola all morning.
Weird, and disrespectful to the current manager surely.
