Adam Forshaw played well for Leeds United against Sheffield Wednesday at Elland Road in the Championship at the weekend.

The 26-year-old midfielder started the match and played for the entire 90 minutes, as the home team lost 2-1.
Former Leeds striker Whelan was pleased with the display produced by Forshaw and spoke highly of him after the match.
Whelan told BBC Radio Leeds: “Forshaw, I think, was excellent again. He gets on the ball, he shows class, he switches it, he is brave on it, he is strong on it, he wins his challenges.”
Good January signing
Forshaw joined Leeds from Championship rivals Middlesbrough in the January transfer window for a fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £4.5 million.
The 26-year-old has proved to be a good signing by the West Yorkshire outfit and has been playing well for the Whites.
