Patrick Bamford did not have a good game for Leeds United this weekend, as the forward missed quite a few chances against Nottingham Forest.

Despite being the better team for most of the match and having the better chances, Leeds failed to win against Forest at Elland Road in the Championship on Saturday afternoon.

After a goalless first half, Pablo Hernandez put the West Yorkshire outfit in the lead in the 59th minute, and Lewis Grabban restored parity for the Reds on 77 minutes.

Bamford, who took five shots and had a pass accuracy of 81.8% against the Reds, according to WhoScored, was visibly frustrated after Forest scored the equaliser, as shown in the photo below.

Need to improve

Bamford is a very good forward, but the former Forest and Chelsea man needs to improve.

If Leeds are to finish in the top two of the Championship table this season, then they will have to take their chances.

With Kemar Roofe gone, Bamford has to step up and lead the line for Leeds.
