Leeds United 2025/26 End of Season Awards | Goal, Signing & Player of the Year
Leeds, That! - A Leeds United Fan PodcastShow Notes
James, Darragh and Rocco look back on Leeds United's first season back in the Premier League with the end of season awards. After finishing 14th on 47 points, eight clear of the drop, with an FA Cup semi-final run and a first league win at Old Trafford since 1981, Daniel Farke's side delivered a season nobody outside Elland Road saw coming.
The lads hand out awards across eight categories - best match, team performance, individual performance, goal of the season, signing of the season, season low, surprise hero and player of the year - with plenty of disagreement along the way. Plus a tribute to Illan Meslier, shoutouts to the players who didn't make the shortlists, and a teaser of the summer transfer chat to come.

Leeds 1-1 Man United reaction + Sunderland preview. A cracking day in Leeds with the Irish contingent, a Calvert-Lewin equaliser five minutes after Martinez went off, and a point that felt like two dropped.
Leeds outplayed the champions for an hour at the Emirates, then Arsenal's bench came on. Arsenal 2-1 Leeds reaction and Man United preview.
Five games, five without defeat, and somehow it feels flat. Leeds ground out a goalless draw with Palace to stay unbeaten, but this was nothing like the Newcastle night. Two shots on target. A Palace goal chalked off by VAR on 53. And a manager who said his side were "a bit too slow in the head at times."
We discuss a statement night under the Elland Road lights, as Leeds United blew Newcastle away 4-1 on Monday Night Football to stay unbeaten and climb to third in the Premier League. Three goals in 14 first-half minutes, a Dominic Calvert-Lewin double, and Matthias Jaissle's first defeat as Newcastle boss.
Rocco is joined by Isaac Johnson of Leeds Live to look back on a tidy start to the season and a summer window Isaac reckons is near perfect.
