Leeds United cruised to a 2-0 win at Wigan Athletic yesterday to go back to the top of the Championship.
The Whites dominated throughout and saw Patrick Bamford net twice to ensure it was a good day at the office for Marcelo Bielsa's men.

Leeds executed their game plan to perfection with some find indvidual performances, with midfielder Adam Forshaw at the hub of everything good about Leeds' play.
However, despite such an excellent showing, former striker and now pundit Noel Whelan encouraged Forshaw to make sure he takes his chances and gets on the scoresheet after missing a series of chances at the DW Stadium.
"He so deserved a goal from his performance, Adam Forshaw. I thought he was excellent today, involved with pretty much everything. I bet in training, he's putting those in the back of the net. He's got to do it on the game day as well because he's a fantastic player with great technique. But you've got to make these chances count." Whelan told BBC Radio Leeds.
Forshaw had the chance to score but hit the post before Patrick Bamford finished off the chance, and Whelan commented that he believed Forshaw should have took that chance at the very least.
Whelan has been vocal in his opinions on Leeds for much of this season already and is seemingly not afraid to make comments which might well rub people up the wrong way.
The Verdict
I think sometimes pundits just have to think of something to say in all honesty and I think this is one of those moments.
There was nothing wrong with what Forshaw did yesterday and if he produces more of that then Leeds will be right up there at the end of the season.
Yes he would probably like to get in on the scoring act but at the end of the day he's doing his job and Leeds are winning.
