This guy is out of his depth

This is the game we need to put some of this domination to bed as I'm sure the second half will be tougher for us.

From the Beeb.

Leeds 1-0 Watford

The Leeds fans are not so politely wondering where VAR may have been in the decision-making for that penalty.

I've just seen a replay. James is completely taken out by William Troost-Ekong, who has an arm right across him and no intent of getting the ball. I'm sorry, but that is a penalty.

Beautiful play from Firpo almost ruined by a rash overplay from Llorente
