Leeds United reached the 10-game milestone of their Premier League season on Saturday, albeit with a disappointing 3-0 defeat at Brighton. Daniel Farke’s squad are now over a quarter of the way through their top-flight return and so far, there have been plenty of positives to take alongside some early concerns.
What’s clear is that injury permitting, Farke will rely on a core of first-team regulars to get Leeds over the line between now and May. The German is not one for unnecessary rotation and over the last 10 games, it’s become clearer who is a nailed on starter, who looks set for the bench and who is struggling to make matchday squads.
With virtually everyone fit as things stand, there are some senior players being left out entirely and a small dip in form has led to calls for a change or two in the starting line-up. Below, the YEP takes a look at the status of all 25 registered Premier League squad members.
