Tottenham Hotspur legend Graham Roberts sends message to Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford

Tottenham Hotspur legend Graham Roberts has told Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford to get used to the criticism from the media after former Whites manager David O’Leary urged the Elland Road club to sign a top-class centre-forward this summer.

Bamford scored 16 goals and assisted two others in 44 league appearances as Leeds secured promotion to the Premier League following a 16-year absence.

O’Leary reckons Leeds need a top striker if they are make any impact in the Premier League, though, but the striker wasn’t having none of it, and Roberts has sent this classy message to him on Twitter:

Get used to it Patrick the media love to bring somone down when on a high!
