The individual ratings of every single Leeds United player so far this season

They say you can't argue with statistics.

For Leeds United, there are plenty of numbers that provide happy reading this season.

Of course, best of all is that they are first out of all 24 Championship sides.

They also have the best defence in the division, with just 30 goals shipped.

The Whites' players are all pulling together as they strive to achieve promotion to the Premier League this term.

However, there is one area where it is every man for themselves.

Whether it's marks out of ten from a local journalist, or checking what fans are saying about them on Twitter, players are always keen to know how their performance stacks up against their colleagues.

With 37 games played, we have used the player ratings from trusted website WhoScored.com.

They record data on all teams in the Championship and compile this to bring up an overall player rating.

The ratings take into account a number of factors, including appearances, goals, man of the match awards and pass success percentages. We have only decided to include players who have featured more than ten times in the league this term.

And coming out on top for the Whites, so far this season, is Luke Ayling.

The right-back has an overall score of 7.31 from his 28 appearances so far in the league.

Ayling's contribution going forward, combined with his defensive prowess, is possibly the reason he is top.

Ayling has scored four goals this term and has provided three assists. His overall rating is good enough to place him eighth overall in the Championship.

Eberechi Eze of QPR is the division's highest-ranked player at 7.45.

In terms of Leeds' ratings only, Kalvin Phillips comes second (7.2) with Pablo Hernandez (7.19) just nudged down to third.

Fourth place goes to Liam Cooper (7.09), who just edges out centre-half partner Ben White (7.05).
