Which moments from our history would you want to retrospectively check using VAR?

[Ric]

Sky are doing a feature on VAR ahead of the new season, and have asked which moments from our history would you want to retrospectively check using VAR. Any suggestions?

A couple that sprung to mind for me were the ridiculous penalty that Alan Wiley gave at Old Trafford in the FA Cup game in '96, and also the handball Phil Dowd gave against Micah at Anfield in the League Cup semi in 2012.

Ideally we’d like a couple of moments, and they have to be things that VAR would actually look at this season. It could be an offside goal that changed the course of a game or a whole season – or it could be a sending off that you think cost you the game.

The Chelsea game in peps first season we were robbed. Even though we ended up finishing a fair few points back we would have won the league that year if we'd rightfully won that game.

A couple of penalties v rags in recent years. Aguero was one I forget which years.

I remeber Anelka getting a very soft handball decision against him when he scored at old trafford.

That penalty decision in the fa cup game at the swamp.

This. Robbed by the assistant referee/linesman on that occasion.
