Leeds United produced their best performance of the season to beat Crystal Palace 4-1 on Saturday - and a trio of standout players have been recognised for their efforts. Daniel Farke’s side completely overrun their Elland Road visitors with Dominic Calvert-Lewin scoring a first-half brace before goals from Ethan Ampadu and Anton Stach.
Everyone in white put in an excellent performance but there were standouts, most notably Calvert-Lewin whose brace took him to six goals in his last five appearances. Leeds also controlled the game from midfield with both Ampadu and Stach outstanding, while full-backs Jayden Bogle and Gabriel Gudmundsson kept control of their respective sides.
Those inside Elland Road might believe there could be more than three Leeds players in WhoScored’s Premier League Team of the Week, but they will have to settle for just the trio. Take a look below to see who made the cut alongside other standout performers from Sunderland, Manchester City, Aston Villa and more.
