However, Alejandro Garnacho’s pose for the promotional shots have left supporters baffled.

The clothes are inspired by The Stone Roses album covers

The collection features a special kit that uses the paint splattered pattern from The Stones Roses’ debut album cover.

In announcing the collaboration, the items are supposed to represent the ‘Madchester’ era in the 1980s.

Manchester United players modelled the clothes with Marcus Rashford, 26, pictured in a bucket hat and tracksuit top.

Garnacho, 19, was featured in one of the kit tops, but fans were confused because he was holding a lemon in his mouth.

Fans loved the collection as some described it as “dope” and “cool” but others were keen to comment on the Argentine’s pose.

One posted: “I’m sorry, what the fluff is Garnacho doing with the lemon?”

A second wrote: “If it has to do with Roses, why in the hell is Garnacho keeping a lemon in his mouth?”

A third commented: “What’s the lemon about?”

A fourth said: “Lemon in his mouth? Who convinced him to do this.”

Another added: “Well seeing Granacho with a lemon in his mouth was not something I was expecting to see today but alright.”

Whilst a lot of fans were baffled, there was an explanation for the lemon, with the fruit appearing on the cover of the Roses’ 1989 debut album.

The pre-match part of the collection will be used on February 11 ahead of the Premier League clash at Villa Park against Aston Villa.

The women’s team will also wear the outfits for the FA Cup tie against Southampton.

The Stone Roses were formed in Manchester in 1983 and consisted of vocalist Ian Brown, guitarist John Squire, bassist Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield and drummer Alan John ‘Reni’ Wren.

Squire told Q magazine in 2001: “Ian had met this French man when he was hitching around Europe.

“This bloke had been in the riots, and he told Ian how lemons had been used as an antidote to tear gas.”

At Old Trafford, their song This Is The One is played as the players enter the field.

Other songs by the band, including Made Of Stone, are also available at the ground.

According to Gary Neville’s explanation on an episode of The Overlap, the song’s introduction was written by the legendary club owner.

He said: “When I became captain, I put This Is The One to walk out to and it has been there ever since.”

Man United used to walk out to the theme song from Rocky, but Neville argued that it had little relation to Manchester as the film is set in Philidelphia.
