Muharemovic and Wilson head Leeds United winners and losers from first seven games | OneFootball

According to Leeds Live, three early-season winners and three under pressure have emerged at Leeds United after seven matches.

The Whites are fifth after five Premier League games and won away at Nottingham Forest in the League Cup.

Tarik Muharemovic has settled fast, reading play well and passing forward. The 23-year-old is mature and comfortable in a back three or four. He is not in the leadership group, but might be soon if Leeds keep him.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin is back in the England squad after four in seven, three in the league, and no Englishman has more. His profile should age well, with Daniel Farke comparing him to a good wine.

Farke has taken nine points from five, which strengthens his position in contract talks. The next run looks tougher after the international break, so the unbeaten start could come under threat.

For Harry Wilson, it has not clicked. He has not started a league match since the opening day. He started in the League Cup, but his error preceded the hosts’ third, and he now has a quad injury.

Jaka Bijol has not started since the 1-1 draw with Brentford, after Melvin Bard’s arrival pushed James Justin to right centre-back. With Nico Elvedi in form, Bijol might return at Arsenal, but minutes will be hard-won.

Michael Zetterer’s debut brought six conceded at Chelsea. His next chance might not arrive until January’s FA Cup third round, and if Leeds exit he may not feature again this season.
