Top of the Flops. 

Way too early to say that.  He's shown glimpses that there might be a player there.  Gotta give Eddie time.

Back 5 for Leeds 

allardyce building a wall.

Would argue that would be our best 11. 

 

That, or ASM on the wing and Isak up top.

I just think Isak is our best player and is better through the middle and we are not playing him in his best position to accommodate Wilson.  Who will probably bang in a hattrick now I've questioned it ha

Isak and Wilson both start apparently - means Isak on the wing.  And Almiron. 

We've got this - Leeds are down, the players know they're down and they've Allardyce as their manager.  I am expecting a reaction from Arsenal game. ?

He’ll be class today. 

Hope so

Isak has to start up front - just so more effective

I'd totally take Maddison- be awesome under Eddie 

Before Sunday I wanted Arsenal to win the Premier League but hearing Arteta's press conference - go on City !!

Decent finish 

Brighton can still turn this round - just needs a goal ?

Maybe so but it doesn't change the fact that Brighton are still able to overtake us. 

This just means Brighton will be more up for it against us - imo.  Most important thing is we win our own games.

Liverpool are our main concern not Brighton.

Looks to me like it hits leg and arm simultaneously. The fact that we are having the conversation means it wasn't clear and obvious.

I think people are missing the point here - if it 'hadn't' been given as a Pen then I agree based on the VAR footage you can't give it.  However, as it was given looking at the VAR footage you can't say for certain it hits his knee.  Thereby the Ref shouldn't overrule it.  It is simple as that.  Them are the rules they should be following - 'clear and obvious' error.  I don't know how the Refs are getting such a simple concept so completely wrong.  Just look at the Man U shout - however that was the complete opposite, you can clearly see he moves his arm to the ball - Pen.  But wasn't given.

Getting a penalty for a ball that hits defenders leg is pretty fucking clear and obvious error lads.

I stand by that you can't say for sure it's hit his leg.  That's just your option.

GOTM

If you can’t see it, I don’t know what to tell you.

Shearer agrees so it's not just me

You can quite clearly see, from every angle, that his shorts move as it hits his knee.

You cannot man  - it took VAR/Ref 5 mins to try and figure it out.  Not a chance that was a clear and obvious error.

You can only see that after it’s slowed down at a certain angle tbf, which I think is the point he’s making. It isn’t a clear and obvious error.

I've yet to see an angle where it is clear

Defoe is a terrible pundit

He did the right thing.  Was not a pen.

100% pen - I've watched reply 100 times and you cannot tell if it hit his knee.  So original decision should have stood.
