Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford admits he owes his Premier League chance to the support of manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Bamford spoke highly of Bielsa and thanked the Leeds boss for showing faith in him.

"Since he's come in he's put his faith in me from the beginning," Bamford said.

"There was tough times last season when he stuck by me because as long as I was working for the team, even if I wasn't scoring, he still had this belief in me.

"There's a big thing there where I feel like I need to repay him and I've a good start with six goals and that goes some way to repaying him.

"But you're only as good as your last game and we have to start fresh again on Monday."
