Rob Green
One huge save from Hooper which came just at the right time, on an otherwise tidy day. 7/10
Luke Ayling
Starting to look like a quality signing. Gave Forestieri nothing when the Italian was shunted out to the left wing. 8/10
Liam Cooper

Hide AdNo denying the errors early on but tightened up quickly and slogged to the very end. 7/10
Kyle Bartley
The Bartley-Cooper combination at centre-back looks promising. Bartley was the better of the two. 8/10
Charlie Taylor
Opened Wednesday up in the build-up the first goal and was much more like his old self. 7/10
Hadi Sacko
An absolute livewire. Murdered Daniel Pudil and was the driving force in the second period. 9/10
Liam Bridcutt

Hide AdBridcutt returns and the midfield looks tighter. No great mystery there. Great to have him back. 8/10
Ronaldo Vieira
The best he’s played and it can’t be a coincidence that having Bridcutt next to him gave him more freedom. 8/10
Alex Mowatt
Not quite as influential as other players but kept his shape and his discipline well. That frustrated Wednesday. 7/10
Marcus Antonsson
Clever movement again but a slightly quiet afternoon until he came up with a deadly header. 7/10
Chris Wood

Substitutes:
Souleymane Doukara (for Antonsson, 69) - An unexpected choice of substitute from Monk but didn’t put a foot wrong. 6/10
Kemar Roofe (for Mowatt, 77) - His cross set up Wood’s goal and a peach it was too. Wednesday’s defence were nowhere. 7/10
Kalvin Phillips (for Sacko, 88) - Leeds were home and hosed by the time he came on. Phillips made sure it stayed that way. 5/10
