Leeds United are nine games into the Premier League campaign and some players may be reflecting on their start to the season.
On the opening day, there is always hope about earning ample game time and impressing manager Daniel Farke. Some have taken the bull by the horns, others have made the most of their break in the side while the rest may feel underwhelmed.
Farke is having to manage a bigger squad this season, as he always expected to - albeit the German never likes a squad that is too big. This year’s numbers have meant that a handful of players have only played 90 Premier League minutes or fewer thus far.
One new signing has yet to get onto the pitch in the league despite Leeds at all while nine players have played the equivalent of two games or under. Some players will have expected to be rotation players.
Whether they expected such little game time so far is more questionable. Farke has a tendency to remain rigid in his line up picks, giving those who take their chance his backing.
Below is a table of how many minutes each player has played in the Premier League so far, with it little surprise who tops the list.
Of course, some players have suffered injury which have impacted their selections - particularly in the goalkeeper and right wing departments - and some new signings arrived after the opening game. But, as a general picture, it indicates who Farke has trusted most so far.
