Poor Stuart Pearce.

Good old Psycho just likes a bit of balance and a bit of form but he copped a load of flack for innocently picking his combined XI between Manchester United and City's current squads. Pearce and Tony Gale appeared on Sky Sports News ahead of Sunday's Manchester derby and they went through both Louis van Gaal's and Manuel Pellegrini's squads to put together the best side between the two. pearce gale They only differed with four players but football fans far and wide took to Twitter to get at Pearce over his decisions. Naming just one City player in his outfield though, he was never going to receive unanimous backing. https://twitter.com/Sports_Hangout/status/586493477497806848 https://twitter.com/neilgcoleman/status/586492929348411392 https://twitter.com/PSShinPads/status/586549062876471296 https://twitter.com/dctwittwoo/status/586497671373987840 https://twitter.com/everythingmar/status/586549517048225793 https://twitter.com/leeming_andrew/status/586556065493479424 https://twitter.com/CMatesUK/status/586555307494617090 https://twitter.com/SweGoon/status/586553987530362880 https://twitter.com/rajman74/status/586479380542705664 https://twitter.com/MC_G_Tek/status/586549924436832256 https://twitter.com/LeutrimRexhaj/status/586550991144800256
