Well balanced and realistic, I'd maybe rate jannson, hernandez and Phillips at 7.5, the later purely on how far he has come. We should be positive that we're still only a few months into Bielsa's reign, but nervous about burn out and injuries. The last month shows that we can deal with 1 or 2 but not 3 or 4. All in all, its a good time to be a leeds fans and we get few of them so should enjoy it.

I've seen a lot of the team this season. Here are my ratings of the players so far. (6 = adequate for play-off team, 7=adequate for promotion team) Peacock-Farrell - 7 Just. Was expecting goalkeeping to be an area of concern, but it and he has not. Ayling - 6 Started really well, showing what we missed last season. Poor performances of late. Is he missing Hernandez on the right? Jansson - 7. Starts in place of Berardi for me. Dominant in the air and a threat on set-pieces. Cooper - 7. Best season ever. One or two mistakes, but left-footed passing from the back has been important. Douglas - 6. An improvement over last season's left backs, but not produced enough of his famed deliveries from that side. Phillips - 7. Most improved player. Important in filling the gap when centre backs go wide, has hit a number of great long passes + some bad ones. Kilch - 7. Another revelation under Bielsa. Hernandez -7. Missing him at the moment, for his creativity when Saiz is marked out of the game. Saiz - 7. Other teams beginning to close him down now. Lost his goal threat completely Alioski - 5. Works hard, but does not make the most of opportunities. Decent reserve left-back. Roofe - 7. Surpassed expectations. But to be fair was the best striker last season too. Berardi - 7. Revelation at Centre Back, but I would not start him in place of Jansson or Cooper. See how he does at right Back while Ayling is out. Shackleton - 6. Did not do a lot wrong in his outings. Baker - 6. Like his attitude. Forshaw - 6. 1st couple of appearances were tentative, much better against Brentford but not done enough to get a start IMO. Harrison - 5. Some good stuff, but not enough of it. Bamford - 6. Was hoping for a bit more, but his injury and the form of Roofe have gone against him so far. Roberts - 6. Done all we could ask for of a youngster. Dallas 3 - Not seen anything from him to justify him being on the pitch. 3rd choice at best in any position. Not seen enough of Blackman, Pearce, Shaughnessy, Edmondson or Clarke. But I have to say that Clarke produced more in 20 mins than Dallas has all season, so he should get a place on the bench or even a start while Hernandez is injured. Regarding strengthening, I think we are still a centre-back short and possibly a proven Centre Forward, although I would not want to hold Roberts back too much. We could probably do with a really fast left winger that makes the opposition shit themselves, to replace Alioski in the starting line-up and forget Dallas completely.
