These Leeds United fans were fuming with Anthony Taylor after their FA Cup clash against Arsenal on Monday night.

Taylor has given out 76 yellow cards in 17 Premier League matches, however, on Monday night in Leeds’ FA Cup clash against Arsenal, Taylor only saw the need to hand out three yellow cards in total, with two of them being for Mateusz Klich and Stuart Dallas.

After the match, these Leeds United fans felt the referee was being biased towards the Premier League side, here’s what the Peacocks fans had to say on Twitter:


Is Anthony Taylor the worst referee in England?

Yes

Yes

No

No

Arsenal ended up winning the match 1-0 thanks to a Reiss Nelson goal, however, Leeds had more shots, more possession and better passing accuracy than the Premier League side.


What Do We Think?

At the end of the day, Arsenal won the match and continue their run in the FA Cup. Whether you agree with Anthony Taylor’s decisions or not, Leeds United didn’t put the ball in the back of the net and ultimately paid the price for wasting the six shots on target they had.

Klich had a very poor tackle completion percentage of 43%, so it’s no surprise that the Polish midfielder was booked, making that argument seem slightly biased, although at the time it could have been seen as a biased decision.
