Darren Fletcher has singled out his dismissal in the 2008/2009 Champions League semi-final as the one game he would like to replay.
Fletcher celebrated 20 years since his United debut on Sunday, two decades after starting in a Champions League second group stage game against Basel - a 1-1 draw in which Gary Neville scored for the Reds.
Another 341 appearances would come for the Scot before he eventually left Old Trafford in 2015. And asked which of those he would like to go back and play again, Fletcher didn't hesitate in admitting his regret at being sent off in the second-leg of United's semi-final against Arsenal in 2009.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side were 3-0 up on the night and 4-0 up on aggregate, when the midfielder was harshly pulled up for a foul on Cesc Fabregas.
