Sky Sports man says Bamford will be a bit-part option at Leeds this season
Sky Sports presenter David Prutton has told Yorkshire Evening Post that Patrick Bamford may only be a “bit-part” option at Leeds United this season.
Bamford picked up another knock during a pre-season friendly win over Hearts at Tynecastle and has been sidelined since then.
He has not played at all this season until today when he came off the bench against Southampton during their 3-1 defeat.
And David Prutton believes he will only have a bit part role for Leeds this season. He said:
“Bamford is back in the mix. He has been there before, he has been written off before. He knows what it is expected, what the levels are and what the demands are of being a centre forward for Leeds United.
“His challenge now is to go again as an older player and to make sure that he’s part of this next episode of what the story is. If it gets Leeds back into the Premier League at the first knockings then great.
“Whether he is a bit part player or a main player we will see. But a fully fit, raring to go and motivated Patrick Bamford is only a bonus for Leeds,” Prutton claimed about Bamford, in his latest column.
