Former Leeds United defender Vinnie Jones thrilled with team’s win.

Leeds United produced a dominant second half performance against Nottingham Forest to win 2-0 at Elland Road.

The victory lifted the Whites up to third position, bouncing back from their surprise loss to Barnsley at the weekend.

They need to find faultless consistency if they are to catch either Newcastle or Brighton in first or second, but Garry Monk’s side have a shot at least, and are in a great position to make the play-offs.

Former Leeds defender Vinnie Jones was delighted with the win, especially after predicting a 2-0 scoreline when the game was goalless at half-time.

Chris Wood obliged by netting his 20th goal of the season, before substitute Souleymane Doukara nearly burst the net with a stunning volley – an even Jones certainly wouldn’t have seen coming.

Another ex-Leeds player Andy Couzens also commented on Twitter after the game, hailing the team’s victory.

Garry Monk’s side are making Elland Road a fortress again and inspiring all connected with the club.

The win brings the momentum back which they need ahead of their trip to Blackburn in their next Championship match, with a FA Cup match against Sutton United in between.
