Leeds United’s supporters will be wondering if their club’s wait for a Premier League return will ever end, with the 2017/18 campaign looking like it is heading for another disappointing end.

Now under the management of Paul Heckingbottom, Leeds’ play-off push is failing badly, with the Whites without a victory in almost two months and sitting eight points adrift of the top-six.

Minus last season, where under Garry Monk it looked for the majority of the season that Leeds would be challenging for a Premier League return, Leeds have rarely challenged the top-six in the Sky Bet Championship.

Over the course of the last five years, an outrageous number of managers and coaches have passed through Elland Road, which has also brought an enormous overturn of players.

Here at FLW, we analyse the players who have represented Leeds over the last five years and select the best XI we believe have represented the Elland Road club…

Last season Green was exceptional for Leeds as they challenged for promotion under Monk.

The former England goalkeeper spent just a single season at Elland Road, but was consistent.

The right-back has been the most consistent performer at Elland Road in the last 18 months.

Ayling is currently sidelined through injury, and his absence is hurting Leeds.

Spent the 2016/17 campaign on-loan at Elland Road and became a firm fan favourite.

Leeds are missing Bartley this year.

Formed an exceptional partnership with Bartley in defence last season, and although Jansson is struggling to find the same level of performance this season, he is amongst the best defenders to play for Leeds in the last decade.

An academy product, who last season completed an exceptional defensive unit alongside Green, Ayling, Bartley and Jansson.

Already received a senior England call-up following his move to AFC Bournemouth.

Cook’s departure was a difficult one to take for Leeds’ supporters.

A current midfielder at Elland Road and another impressive product of Leeds’ academy, Heckingbottom should be looking to build his side around Vieira.

Another departed academy star.

Byram came through as a right-back, but prior to his departure impressed in a more advanced role.

Saiz has been the driving force at Elland Road this season.

Leeds are missing the Spanish playmaker, who is currently serving a suspension.

Despite only arriving at Leeds towards the end of his impressive career, Hernandez has shone at Elland Road.

The 31-year-old edges out Chris Wood as the striker in this team.

Wood might’ve scored 30 goals last season, but McCormack delivered consistently during his time at Elland Road and scored goals in a less competitive side.
