Leeds United 1 Leicester City 4: Graham Smyth's player ratings as Whites fall to Foxes loss

LEEDS United fell to a third defeat of the new Premier League season as Leicester City left Elland Road with a 4-1 victory - but how did we rate the performances?

The Foxes led 2-0 at the break after strikes from Harvey Barnes and Youri Tielemans and while Leeds pulled a goal back through Stuart Dallas, Leicester bagged two more through Jamie Vardy and a late Tielemans penalty.

Graham Smyth, the YEP's chief football writer, hands out the scores.
