Leeds United have started the new Championship campaign unbeaten.
Adam Forshaw praised Patrick Bamford on Instagram after he helped Leeds United to a 2-0 win against Wigan on Saturday afternoon at the DW Stadium.
At the start of the Championship campaign, Bamford came into the season with a lot of pressure on his shoulders, and it is fair to say, he is delivering.
Striker Bamford, who joined from Boro for a fee that could rise to £10 million in 2018 [BBC Sport], played the full match for the Championship leaders, whilst Forshaw was substituted off late in stoppage-time for Jamie Shackleton.
Nonetheless, here is Forshaw’s message following Leeds win, as he was ‘pleased’ with Bamford netting a brace, as posted on his personal Instagram account, with his teammates also responding.
Life was made a little easier for Marcelo Bielsa’s men when Joe Williams was sent off after 20 minutes after he picked up two bookings.
At the time, the game was goalless and it was have brought back memories from Leeds’ surprise defeat to 10-man Wigan from last season, which ended up proving to be costly to their promotion chances.
But this time around, they proved their worth and showed that they learnt from their previous lessons as they picked up three points and secured a clean sheet.
