Lee Chapman (1990-93 & 1996) 174 apps, 80 goals
I tried to put Chapman lower in the list, too. He had the staccato gait of a badly constipated zombie and a numb first touch. He was very much the artisan to Eric Cantona's tortured artist. However, Chapman was also a gilt-edged goal machine and utterly fearless. He got Leeds promoted and then was the star man of the title turn. Sure, Cantona came in for a few end-of-season bows, but the rewriting of history to suggest the Frenchman was the key to the 1992 championship is an insult to his less gifted but more prolific team-mate.
