Just got to this bit in Panzer Leader by Heinz Guderian.
He says that he and most of the German Army were ready to go to Moscow and didn't want to turn towards kiev.
They expected him to advance with worn out units that needed re-enforcments, rest and repair.
What's more they took the XLVI Panzer Korps away from his Panzer Group which weakened his over stretched force.
Guderian gives a good explaination on why they should have carried on to Moscow.
