Because Leeds played out of their skins and some “worldy” type goals.
Turns out we were just shitter than them, and Tarkowski fucked up.

What he was supposed to do was realise he couldn't get near it without it hitting his arm, so left it for the keeper to deal with.

In that 0.04 second reaction time.

If that was the case no defender would ever try and block a shot would they?

Which they all do, all the time…

Was not great, but NO, Tarks, did not fuck up. The ref and VAR did.

He shouldn’t be giving the officials a decision to make.
If it was Keane he’d be hung drawn and quartered on here.

I think the penalty was harsh but you are spot on with the Keane comment. I’ve seen just his mere presence being blamed for the entire team performance. I think he had a better game than the captain last night.

He has been fine in every game he has played under Moyes.

He was bad when he came on against United I think, but that’s it.

Agree with that. One horrible pass first half but not a foot wrong really aside from that.

Yeah I’ve had a good luck at this. I think he’s ’given them a decision’ to make there. It’s the distance it travels from. 2 yards away then it would be scandalous. As has been said, the other way round we’d all be up in arms. Oh err

I just don’t think it’s as bad a decision as is being made out, I think we’ve had far worse.

Everyone knows what Tarks is like too, he’s been round the block and knows all the tricks. Most the time he’s the right side of stuff, just not tonight.

Meh

Yeah that's where I am - think if we get away with that it's a bit lucky. That said, the 'process' was in infuriating as the ref clearly didn't see it well enough to give initially, but the bar was set as 'given'

Not going to make my all-time list of 'decisions that had me fuming'

He was doing his utmost so stop a shot whilst tucking his arms in as close to his body as he could. Wtf was he supposed or expected to do ?

If Alcaraz doesn't needlessly slip over, Tarks doesn't have to give the ref a decision to make. You're looking at the wrong culprit.

Million % this, genuinely awful by Alcaraz at that stage to be so careless.

Not only Keane. On here, whatever, folks like to blame. If not Keane, then Pickford or before Young or Doucs. Your take is weird. Whatever Moyes does or his players do, that is nothing to do with a bad ref/VAR decision.

We are a far better team than them, and i will be surprised if they beat the drop.

We just didn't perform tonight, for whatever reason.

Alcaraz fucked up. Tarkowski made his best effort to block the resulting shot and was shafted by the officials.

Maybe Leeds made their own luck by doing more to win over 90 mins, but they still got lucky. Game was drifting to a fair draw until Alcaraz intervened. Mistakes (and officials sometimes) cost games.

We definitely didn't do enough to win. Leeds shaded it imo. Kavanagh made the difference in the end.

The slip by Alcaraz was crucial but I was going mad at Gueye in the lead up to that cause he had the chance to drive forward in their half but once again checked and passed backwards, which ended up again back to Pickford who played risky ball to Alcaraz, but it started with Gueye.

he also had another chance to clear it and tried some stupid backheel

You won’t see any criticism of Gueye from him. He was woeful all night he wasted every decent opportunity we had going forward as well. The lad next to him was even worse. A shocking midfield combo that.

Bizarre comment if you mean me ? Unless I am misinterpreting that. Care to elaborate ?

For the record, I thought Gana was industrious but largely ineffective. Much the same as KDH and Tim who just looks out of his depth at this point. The midfield just didn't function as a unit going forward. Garner in there for Tim would have helped.

I moan about Gueye passing backwards all the time but then I see him pass forward and think maybes he's right.

He lost it the final 20 mins; he was well and truly goosed and was failing to function ;

So did I.

I don't know what people see. We have had an awful pre-season (again) and then lose 2 of our defenders and we are playing a team who have just come up.

I think long term this season we will be okay (prob about 12th) but as usual it will be a few games in before we start moving up the league
