Leeds United season player ratings as Raphinha and Gelhardt lead the way

Leeds United fans have handed Raphinha the highest rating of any member of the squad this season. The Brazilian received an average rating of 8.1 from supporters - the only player to be rated higher than an eight in the entire side.

In a season of struggle for Leeds, Raphinha’s performances, particularly in the first half of the season, almost single-handedly kept the Whites out of the bottom three. He netted eight goals before Christmas when everyone around him was struggling to find the net consistently.

In second place for Leeds was young attacker Joe Gelhardt, who received an average rating of 7.5 . Despite only starting five matches, he had a superb breakthrough campaign with a string of fine performances from the bench.

He netted two goals, provided two assists and won two penalties in just 732 minutes of football, which averages out at a goal contribution every 122 minutes. A bigger role beckons for him next season regardless of Leeds’ summer transfer activity.

Jack Harrison, Illan Meslier and Stuart Dallas made up the remainder of the fans’ top five, with former two earning ratings of 7.1 , and the latter 7.0. At the other end, Tyler Roberts was Leeds supporters’ lowest rated player, receiving an average of just 3.5.

Junior Firpo was not much better at 3.8, though he did show signs of improvement during the final few matches of the season. Patrick Bamford’s rating of 4.0 is perhaps indicative of the torrid injury struggles he endured over the course of the campaign, playing just nine times.
