Two saves Saturday Meslier made two saves and had one clearance in Saturday's 2-2 tie versus Southampton.

Impact Meslier faced four shots and saved two of them in a disappointing draw Saturday. The goalkeeper is off to a solid start with seven saves and three goals conceded so far. The big worry for Meslier will be clean sheets after falling to just five in 38 appearances in 2021/22 after putting together 11 in the 2020/21 campaign. If Leeds can find some better defensive play they will stay out of the relegation zone and Meslier should have some solid upside.
