Glenn Murray and Jermaine Beckford have praised Patrick Bamford for the impact the Leeds United forward has had upon his return to the starting XI in the FA Cup fourth round 3-1 win vs Accrington Stanley.
Bamford was named in Leeds' starting XI for just the fifth time this season by Jesse Marsch during the win against their League One opposition. The striker put in a superb performance and provided two assists, teeing up both Jack Harrison and Junior Firpo.
The Whites' centre forward was unlucky not to have scored himself as he showed his side what they had been missing following his absence from the squad. When asked how big a difference it will make to have Bamford back at Marsch's disposal, Beckford heaped praise on the 29-year-old for his role in the American coach's team.
