Leeds United are preparing themselves for the Championship play-offs after Marcelo Bielsa guided the club to a third place finish - but how have we rated the players this season?
Our Phil Hay's hands out the scores for the campaign following the close of the regular season - so who starred and who flopped under the Argentine?
Leeds ratings
The problem when you descend on the Championship from the Bernabeu is that everyone expects you to be dynamite. Hes been less sensational than that, although not as bad in the main as he was at Ipswich. 6/10
It has to be said that Leeds defending has not been any better with him out of the team. You can see what Bielsa likes about Casilla but his initial first choice did him a good turn. 7/10
Made one appearance against Bristol City and was helped by them going down to 10 men but having been dropped in the deep end without much warning, he earned pass marks comfortably. 7/10
Went through a noticeable dip around Christmas but has come out the other side of that and is one player in form at the right time. Not on a par with his first season here, but decent. 7/10
A little strange that Bielsa hasnt felt tempted to used him more. Looks ready, rounded and full of running, and has rarely been found wanting. 7/10
Has had a difficult few weeks but over the course of the season, was good enough to merit consideration for the Championships team-of-the-year. Has felt more like a team player. 8/10
He and Kalvin Phillips have undergone the biggest changes with Bielsa as head coach and Coopers passing has improved drastically. People in the club speak highly of his captaincy too. An excellent year. 9/10
This could have been a great campaign for him but injury has ruined it and with Dallas in at left-back, he might not get much of a sniff in the play-offs. 6/10
How long he would have coped with first-team football is difficult to say but he didnt look fazed by an opportunity which came at him quickly and hes one to watch. 7/10
A disappointment if truth be told. Came with a stellar reputation from Wolves but Leeds havent seen enough of his strengths and injuries have been a problem too. 6/10
Frustrating as a left winger but much more effective on the left side of defence, even if the quality of his deliveries was still lacking. A workrate to match all others. 7/10
Villa away was a severe baptism and Davis grew into that match gradually. Bielsa is probably asking a bit much of him too soon but Davis has the look of a good prospect. 6/10
Youll do well to remember his appearances, including one where he was subbed on and subbed off again. Safe to say that he wasnt someone Bielsa felt he needed. 5/10
