Leeds United player ratings with Aaronson, McKennie and Rodrigo poor again in Fulham loss

Leeds United (4-1-4-1)

1 Illan Meslier

Question marks again on his goalkeeping before the goal. Max Wober arguably needs to give him a shout, but the fingertips on the cross only teed up Harry Wilson. Did make a couple of good stops in the first half. Superb save to keep Leeds in at 2-1 from a free-kick. Problems with both the goals conceded. 4

25 Rasmus Kristensen

Strung up, hung, drawn and quartered by Willian. Right-back has been the biggest of many positional problems in the team this season. 4

5 Robin Koch

Solid without being totally commanding or assertive. Bobby Decordova-Reid was generally kept quiet. 5

6 Liam Cooper

Pretty good on his return to the starting line-up. Made strong, industrial challenges when they were needed. Nearly crossed the line on one or two. 6

39 Max Wober

Immediately reminded everyone how much he had been missed with two blocks inside the opening six minutes. Had trouble with Wilson down the second half. 6

8 Marc Roca

A poor performance neatly summed up by the four consecutive corners he failed to get beyond the first man in the second half. Looked overrun as the sole pivot. Tackles were clumsy or non-existent. 4

10 Crysencio Summerville

The only attacking threat in the first half. Carried it past Fulham defenders neatly, but faded a little. Caused some more trouble after the break. 6

7 Brenden Aaronson

Still struggling to see what he brings to the attack. Looked lightweight again, though could have done with more protection from the referee under some challenges. 4

28 Weston McKennie

Looked like a passenger drifting through the game. Idly trotted up and down the field. Tackles were meek or didn't happen. Failed to bring attacking spark or defensive steel. 4

11 Jack Harrison

Brought some juice in the second half, but absent in the first period. Couldn't make much stick at all. 5

19 Rodrigo

Neither troubled the centre-backs with his pressing nor with his movement or shooting. System is clearly not working when the striker is dropping deeper than Roca to collect the ball. 4

Substitutes

22 Joel Robles

2 Luke Ayling

3 Junior Firpo

4 Adam Forshaw (on for McKennie 80min)

Late change. N/A

9 Patrick Bamford (on for Rodrigo 65min)

Got the goal. Asked questions. Remained bright despite the match state. 6

21 Pascal Struijk

23 Luis Sinisterra (on for Aaronson 65min)

Did not see much of him. 5

24 Georginio Rutter

29 Wilfried Gnonto (on for Harrison 80min)

Brought on far too late to see a concerted impact from his talents. N/A
