Bamford in 2024:
9 appearances
600 mins
5 goals
2 assists
A goal every 120 minutes
A goal involvement every 90 mins.
Love him or loathe him, he's doing the business for us this year.

Leeds were gash lost 3 times in December .
Since Bamfordinho starting games beginning of January 2024
Leeds 100% win record
Played 8
Won 8
Bamfordinho undroppable.
11 Feb 2024 19:54:00
I should amend this as he's actually played 643 mins (after checking myself) .
Goal scored every 129 mins
Goal involvement every 92 mins
Not much difference m, but prefer to be accurate when talking stats.

He's definitely elbowing his way to success. In post match interviews, he's very articulatio and cubical.
11 Feb 2024 21:09:37
Agree Baz. Undroppable at the minute.
11 Feb 2024 21:28:55
We need Patrick Handford more than we care to realise.
Good points Dill ????.

As I've said before Bamford is a archetypal centre forward. He has the physicality to occupy defenders. He comes short and has enough pace to stretch the play going long. He always tries to hold on to the ball when it comes to him and brings others into the game. Yes he doesn't score as much as he should but he bring a lot more to every game. At this level there are not many that bring as many attributes to there game. Plus his intelligence and closing down is another attribute.

Spot on Ben. BamFord is an excellent CF who would thrive in a traditional 442 with someone running directly off his shoulder. What he does as a sole target man, is second to none. If he stays fit, I can see him being recalled by England soon.
12 Feb 2024 07:56:53
Agree Ben and Bright. apart from the England call up. Kane, Watkins, Solanke, Wilson. Then you have forwards who can also play up top such as Bowen, Palmer, Gordon. He's very, very far away from that imo.
12 Feb 2024 08:50:23
I see your point Dilli. We do have a glut of forwards, as we did when Bam got his last call up. Depends what the gaffer wants. Imo Bam offers something a bit different to all of those mentioned, but I won’t be taking a bet on it! ???.

What Dill said.
Bamfordinho doing well for Leeds, but Brighty getting a tad carried away with the Englanc suggestion.
12 Feb 2024 09:55:04
Think bright was jesting chaps.
12 Feb 2024 10:04:03
Brighty is today April 1st ?
Patrick : England :Recall ???
Best 1 I heard all week.
12 Feb 2024 10:53:03
England call up aside, Bamford is hitting a rich vien of form just when we need it. Four goals in six games is the form we need from him, could very well be that his contribution is the difference for us getting promoted.
That for me makes him in this moment in time indispensable. Fingers crossed he stays fit.
12 Feb 2024 14:15:39
What CC said. Brighty once claimed to me that Paddy is actually best suited to a no.10 role.
12 Feb 2024 16:42:35
A “classic” 10 role, yes. Playing directly off a 9. Old school style. And?
12 Feb 2024 17:37:15
Why reference a 1980s position when we're 4 decades hence?
12 Feb 2024 21:01:55
I get what your saying, Bright, and I agree. In a 442, Paddy definitely better suited being the 10 rather than the 9.
12 Feb 2024 21:15:49
Why resort to trying to undermine somat a poster put two years ago, not directly to you I must add, rather than post something constructive, or have you lost that ability now George? Always just snidey little jibes at others? ???.
13 Feb 2024 00:50:05
Was posted to me and posted 5 months ago.
13 Feb 2024 05:48:27
Here’s an idea George; Focus on the football and the club, not me. Everyone knows your dislike for me personally, and probably, like me, couldn’t give a flying eff at a rolling donut about it.
Try and move on eh, and quit the jibes, and goading attempts. I will continue to try and avoid your childlike posts and goading, and read the smart boy stuff.
Ps. I guess people on the street love your everyday use of English ; “‘tis 4 decades hence, ma’am! ” ???.
