The Manchester United squad have apparently found their fall-guy for Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Wolfsburg that resulted in the club's Champions League exit.

After Louis van Gaal replaced the influential Juan Mata with Nick Powell in the 69th minute, The Times report that the team have been left bemused by the decision. There is no suggestion that the players have any particular problem with Powell, but rather they are confused by their manager's move to throw on the inexperienced youngster at such a key moment. Clearly Manchester United fans also felt perplexed by the change: https://twitter.com/ManUnitedYouth/status/674896022183780352 https://twitter.com/WillyBlob/status/674717737759862784 https://twitter.com/AidanMUFC_/status/674524867337838592 https://twitter.com/LaurensJulien/status/674353854595624961 https://twitter.com/theunitedmanc/status/674345887020265472
