Former Premier League ref Graham Poll feels Bournemouth were robbed of a penalty in defeat to Manchester United.

With United 1-0 up against Bournemouth early in the second half, Luke Shaw appeared to foul Cherries striker Callum Wilson in the penalty area but appeals were swiftly waved away by referee Graham Scott.

"Yes it was a wrong call, it's definitely as penalty," said Poll on BT Sport after the game.

"For Graham Scott it's a really hard call to make. It's a quick break and he just doesn't have the angle to see Luke Shaw holding Wilson there.

"We question the assistant, very good on offsides, but he could help the referee here. It's definitely a penalty and furthermore, if you think Wilson is going to score then you've got to be sending (Shaw) off.

"That is a deliberate foul and the double jeopardy rule only comes in if it's an accidental foul. If you try and play the ball and accidentally trip the opponent then it's a foul, a penalty but you don't send them off. You've got to send him off. If, however, it's not an accidental foul – that isn't – that is a red card.

"I think in the immediate aftermath they won't be aware of it. Harry (Leonard, linesman) will say he didn't think it was and they'll let it pass.

"It's only when they watch the playback that they'll see it. This is a perfect advert for VAR. It shows it's definitely a foul and I think Chris Smalling knew as well. VAR would clear it up in seconds.

"As I say you've got to be 100 per cent sure."
