My Top 10 - Volume 2

Elliot Chilton • February 9, 2024

This 'My Top 10' has been compiled by Hampshire Whites member Elliot Chilton - age 22

1 Kalvin Phillips

True Leeds lad on and off the pitch. Icon of the Bielsa era.

2 Pablo Hernandez

Bielsa’s prodigy and brought the magic to that promotion team.

3 Luke Ayling

Player who came from outside and understood what it means to be Leeds. Best right back in the league at his best.


4 Mateusz Klich

Brought some of the old “Dirty Leeds” to the Bielsa side; Klich-housery! Very likeable player who passes the “pint test”. His antics on promotion day will live long in the memory. Vocal criticism of Jesse Marsch helps….


5 Jermaine Beckford

Lit up the league in very dark times, and has become a lifelong Leeds supporter as a result of his stint at the club

6 Liam Coooper

Not always the best centre half at the club, but a fantastic leader and representative of the club, on and off the pitch through thick and thin. Served the club from its darkest era into the Bielsa PL days. Epitomises side before self.


7 Raphinha

Brings to mind the joy of 20/21, bringing a level of quality to Leeds not seen for 20+ years. Gave his all to keep the club up in 21/22 despite having his dream Barcelona move lined up.


8 Gaetano Berardi 

Humble hard man, who, like Beckford, has maintained links with the fan base (Square Ball writer) since leaving.

9 Jonny Howson

Leeds lad and great guy. Met him as mascot at Southampton in 2011 and was incredibly kind. Not forgetting his play off goal vs Carlisle.

10 Stuart Dallas

Classic Bielsa rags to riches story, brought many happy memories, not least Man City away which lit up a dark lockdown period.
