da brdice: Leeds United will be buzzing with their win over Huddersfield Town on Saturday, and one man who will feel on top of the world after the Whites’ win is Patrick Bamford.
da leao: The former Middlesbrough man finally ended his seven-game goal drought by netting early in the second half against the Terriers and to make the goal that much sweeter he silenced a number of his doubters.
Indeed, a number of fans called for Bamford to be dropped prior to the game, but he showed them exactly what he can do when he’s on form, by getting on the scoresheet against United’s Yorkshire rivals.
The supporters who doubted the attacker before the match ended up looking rather silly as the Chelsea academy product was a key contributor to their victory.
Fans couldn’t understand why Bamford had started, but it seems as though they should know better than to doubt Marcelo Bielsa.
The Argentine hasn’t been dubbed as the best coach in the world for nothing, and although there was a case to be made for the striker to be dropped, it now seems as though he made the right call.
Plenty of supporters prior to the game were calling for Tyler Roberts to be involved, but the Wales international wasn’t needed on Saturday as United stormed to victory with Bamford leading the line.

Meanwhile, the Welshman failed to make any real impact when he came off the bench late on, failing to find the net or even have a shot on target.
In true Bamford style, he managed to shut up his critics. Leeds fans will now have to hope he keeps finding the back of the net.
In other news, one Leeds player is living up to his billing.
