David Moyes's first game in charge of Real Sociedad ended in a goalless draw, but a situation with his trousers made his early impression at the club rather questionable.

Moyes ditched his usual tracksuit to sport a black suit in a bid to look the business on the touchline on his debut as manager of the club, but it did not quite work out as planned.

Photos emerged exposing a nasty rip and hole in an unfortunate area of the inside leg of his suit trousers, not making the ideal early impact.

What made it all the more uncomfortable for Moyes was the fact that fans were quick to point out that he received a reported £5.2 million in compensation when he left Manchester United.

To pick up over £5m and have a great deal of spare time prior to taking his new job made the situation seem all the more ridiculous.

The Scot otherwise achieved decent marks in his first outing as Sociedad boss, standing alongside his translator and pointing enthusiastically to his players throughout.

The suit debacle aside, it was an encouraging start for Moyes with Sociedad achieving a first La Liga clean sheet in seven months.

So Moyes's unbeaten reign in Spain remains very much in tact, but he may finally have to dip into some of that compensation money to buy himself a new suit from Zara Men.

It's tough being a manager, particularly when a rip can cause such a problem.
