Season summary
With Neil Redfearn having been sacked as manager in the summer, owner Massimo Cellino turned to Uwe Rösler, who had experienced some success with Brentford, but had been sacked as manager of then-Championship rivals Wigan Athletic in the middle of an ultimately unsuccessful relegation struggle the previous season. The summer also saw few signings of note being made, and a host of departures, including Billy Sharp, who had heavily underwhelmed by scoring just five goals in the previous season, and dropped down a division to return to former club Sheffield United.
As had become increasingly typical in recent years, Rösler had precious little time in charge of Leeds, and was sacked after winning just two of his first ten league matches (albeit five of them had ended in draws). He was replaced by Steve Evans, who had recently been sacked by Yorkshire rivals Rotherham United, and while the club's form initially remained unimpressive, results did eventually pick up. However, Leeds were too inconsistent to produce anything better than a season of mid-table mediocrity, with the only saving grace being that even this was better than most of their recent seasons. Among the few positives of the campaign were the form of newly-recruited New Zealander Chris Wood, who would prove Leeds' top scorer this year. Additionally, the relative lack of new signings and an injury crisis forced Evans to fall back on several youngsters, including Kalvin Phillips, who would become key figures in the side in the years ahead. Evans would not last long enough to see the fruits of this, however, as for the third season in succession, Leeds sacked their manager after the season ended.
