WHOOPS! Pellegrini gaffe: I have to manage a big team like Manchester United...

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini made an amazing gaffe in the aftermath of their Capital One Cup win over Sunderland.

Flushed with success after picking up his first trophy as City manager, the man nicknamed 'The Engineer', got in a bit of muddle when asked about the pressure of his job during a pitch-side interview following the 3-1 victory over Sunderland.

The 60-year-old replied: "Very happy, very happy. I love pressure so I have to manage a big team like Manchester United."
