VAR and the referees are not good for this league at all. Manchester unuted against Arsenal on Sunday, same bullsh*t happened when Cunha Was fouled inside 18' and the ref didn't even bother checking. F!
This kind of decision making has ruined football..
Decision was made by var before they had watched a replay it looks like, 10 seconds after the incident he's being spoken to on his ear piece. Those 2 on sky he looked guilty so did Peter Sutcliffe. No team will be happy if thats given against them but Everton deserved nothing.
What …shame that's not even a penalty
Modern football is a terrible standard
Hi everyone , I'm a Leeds utd fan , and i must admit that was a harsh penalty, on another night , different ref , that probably wouldn't of been given , but haho , that's football folks , we had the luck on the night , sorry Everton, good luck for the rest of the season , 🤔see if we get that kind of luck again at arsenal 😊
As an arsenal fan i find it difficult to understand 😢why that penalty given

Cry me a river .. it was 100% penalty..
P.s
Evrton played like shit, they deseve to lose.
That? A penalty? His arm was almost fully behind his back.
I feel nothing towards Everton but that is never a penalty. You can't possible hold your arm further or faster behind your body than Tarkowski did. If this is the standard now, we can expect 160 penalties this season instead of the averga 80-ish.
Leicester fan here… terrible penalty decision, Everton done up like a Kipper.
He knew he was leaning into the ball. Everton were played off the park😅
As a Leeds fan even I don't think that was a pen. Still believe we were the better team but silly that we won under those circumstances.
New season but same old, same old from VAR against Everton 😡
Daylight robbery
It’s this type of reffing that has cost arsenal crucial points in recent title races. Maybe the hate for arsenal won’t blind your judgement now
Leeds looks promising
And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
Acts 16:31. Bro or sister make a decision and choose Jesus-Christ. You will taste a good difference
Pen for me. He moved toward the ball with his arm next to his body.
VAR is the same as Netanyahu and Trump. We all know what it's doing is wrong but cannot do anything about it. Just have mouth shut and keep on accepting injustice.
This prem reffssss are shittttt
Even without the pen we still would not have won the game MOYES it too blame for poor selection…playing Tim CM instead of LB and Garner LB when he has spent the entire preseason next too gana getting a relationship going. Makes NO sense…he could have just told Tim get forward when you can and don't let your man get away from you and /or we could have just told the LB to invert into cm we we have the ball creating a overload and tell grealish what he already does at city and stay wide and telling our re too stay wide pinning them back
So your arm cant' be in "un-natural" position, now your arm can't be attached to your body either….
That is in no possible way a penalty
How is that a handball
Disappointed with the performance overall we never had anything going both halves we could have lost 4 or 5 if leeds were lethal
That wasn't a ✋ ball useless var
LEEDS UNITED PLAYED THE MATCH WITHOUT THEIR AUSTRALIAN PLAYERS, MARK VIDUKA AND HARRY KEWELL
It doesn't matter how many creative players Everton have if they don't have a striker
How the f*ck was it handball his arm is at his side slightly behind him, the game of football is getting ridiculous, robbed of a point
Everton vs RB Leeds….
Good job, Leeds; send Neverton to the relegation.
