Leeds United player ratings v Wolves: Dallas shines, Harrison disappoints
Leeds United ended their bad run of form with a 1-1 draw against Wolves at Elland Road on Saturday.
Wolves scored early in the first half and despite being second best for most of the game, ended up winning it.
Leeds tried hard towards the end, and Marcelo Bielsa’s men were rewarded with Rodrigo’s stoppage-time equaliser from the spot.
Here’s how we rated the Whites at Elland Road on Saturday:
Illan Meslier 6
The Frenchman did not have much to do as Leeds dominated possession and created the majority of the chances. Can’t be faulted for the goal.
Jamie Shackleton 5
The youngster impressed in most games deputising for Luke Ayling, but he has every reason to be upset with this performance.
Diego Llorente 7
Looked solid at the back and was decent in the build-up play. Complemented Liam Cooper well.
Liam Cooper 7
A confident performance from the Leeds skipper and despite not keeping a clean sheet, his influence on games appears to be increasing.
Stuart Dallas 8
Arguably the best player on the pitch. Played at left-back a position he deputised in time and again last season. Rarely put a foot wrong and was all over looking to make things happen.
Raphinha 7
Once again was the only player in the Leeds attack who seemed like he was trying to make something happen. His injury came at the wrong time and proved to be costly.
Pascal Struijk 6
Did fairly well given the fact he was playing out of possession. However, is likely to drop out once Kalvin Phillips is fit.
Mateusz Klich 5
Did not have a good and was rightly brought off after the hour mark. Did very little to set up chances for the attackers.
Jack Harrison 3
Harrison’s struggles continued and he was once again one of the worst performers in his side. Failed to score from a glorious chance late in the first half and Bielsa opted to withdraw one of his mainstays at half-time.
Dan James 4
Played in the number 10 position but did not do enough to put the Wolves back line under pressure
Rodrigo 7
His influence on the game increased when Joe Gelhardt came on. Scored an important penalty at the end to secure a point.
