What a bullshit penalty. Then they say VAR is for Utd. VAR failure in first weekend. :lol:

For the 2019-20 rules, that's not a penalty - it deflected off the leg first, onto the arm.

I know the rules have changed this year, but has that bit changed?
It’s one of the most ridiculous penalties you can get. Players are going to have to chop off their arms.

You just know Leeds will lose to Liverpool, City, Chelsea and Arsenal home and away but will still somehow fluke a 1-0 over us at Elland Road.

How did Liverpool get so good so quick? It was just yesterday they were losing to Swansea at home.

Attacking Midfield
Thought it was as stonewall as they come tbh
From last year:

Deflections
Premier League players will be allowed extra leeway when it comes to ricocheted handballs.

It is often impossible to avoid contact with the ball if it has deflected off the body of an opponent, team-mate, or even another part of the own player.

So a handball will not be awarded if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from their own head/body/foot or the head/body/foot of another player who is close/nearby.

But I'm not sure if it's changed this year.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

What a bloody goal. Leeds’s attacking patterns are so good, but I don’t see them holding out at the back.
