David Moyes was blasted for not picking Juan Mata (Picture: Getty)

David Moyes hasn’t got a lot right since taking over at Manchester United, with everything from his tactics to transfers being mocked by supporters.

But it seems that while much of the abuse against him could be justified, Moyes is now copping flak for things that aren’t even his fault.

Ahead of Manchester United’s Champions League second leg tie with Olympiakos, he made the bold decision to play Antonio Valencia and Danny Welbeck in the wide-roles.

This angered a number of United supporters, who quickly took to Twitter to blast the manager – insisting that Juan Mata should be playing instead.

The only problem is that Juan Mata, a January arrival from Chelsea, is cup tied for the Champions League – meaning Moyes couldn’t pick him, even if he’d wanted to.

That didn’t stop many ‘confused’ fans though, who vented their frustration online.

Poor Moyes just can’t catch a break at the moment.
