Marcelo Bielsa's most-used Leeds United men and two ever-presents during injury-ravaged campaign

Leeds United have continually battled against a large number of injuries this season - but which players has Whites head coach Marcelo Bielsa been able to count on the most?

Leeds signed off until February with last weekend's 1-0 loss at home to Newcastle United, after which Bielsa still had nine players sidelined, Kalvin Phillips and Liam Cooper not expected back until March due to hamstring issues.

Junior Firpo and Adam Forshaw also missed last weekend's defeat at home to the Magpies with hamstring problems, joining Patrick Bamford (foot), Jamie Shackleton (Achilles), Charlie Cresswell (shoulder), Sam Greenwood (knee) and Crysencio Summerville (shoulder) on the sidelines.

But one Whites player has managed to take in every single minute of every league game so far and two Leeds men have started every league fixture.

Here, in descending order, we run through the top 13 Whites players who have featured the most amidst continued injury woes.
