Chris Whyte features at number 65 in our 100 Greatest Leeds players ever.
The dependable central defender played a major part in the establishment of LUFC back in the big time after joining them in 1990. His skilful use of the ball at the back made him one of the most efficient members of the championship winning team. Turned professional with Arsenal in 1977 and, although winning 4 England under 21 caps in 1982, he could not break David O'Leary's hold on the central defensive spot. He left to play in the United States in 1986, he returned to join West Bromwich Albion in 1988 and won their player of the year before signing for United, where he played 146 games scoring 6 goals.
