LEEDS CAN GO UP FOR SHAW

ADAM FORSHAW believes Leeds can take the Middlesbrough route to the Premier League under new boss Paul Heckingbottom.

Forshaw (above), who made a £4.5million switch from Boro to Elland Road in January, reckons United have the same qualities that got his old side promoted two years ago.

”It was brilliant going up with Boro because we had lost to Norwich in the play-off final the previous year,” he said.

“We were grinding out tight wins. We weren’t blowing teams away, but we were so organised and we had momentum.

“The Championship is all about application, work ethic and togetherness.”
