2) Ross McCormack
In the 2013-14 season, McCormack was at his deadliest for Leeds scoring 28 league goals including a Hat-trick in the 5-1 demolition of Huddersfield Town as well as four well taken goals in Leeds' 4-2 victory against Charlton.
This would prove to be McCormacks final season at Leeds as he was sold in the summer by Massimo Cellino to Fulham for £11 million.
3) Jermaine Beckford
The 2009-10 season was a fruitful one for Leeds with the side clinching promotion back to the Championship after a three year exile in League One.

4) Mark Viduka
Arguably the greatest striker Leeds ever had in the premier league era based purely on him being such a clinical finisher.
Viduka was clinical for Leeds in the 2002/03 season and single handedly helped keep Leeds up with that wonderful goal at Highbury, this was the only season at Leeds where Viduka hit 20 goals.
