Paul Merson has blasted Patrick Bamford for ‘stitching up’ Leeds and ‘spoiling his reputation’ after his antics during the crazy 1-1 draw with Aston Villa.
The Whites striker has been charged with simulation and looks set to receive a two-match suspension, which would rule him out of the first leg of the club’s play-off semi-final.

Bamford hits the deck
In the aftermath of Mateusz Klich’s controversial opener, Bamford went down clutching his face following a confrontation with Villa winger Anwar El Ghazi – but replays showed there was no contact.
El Ghazi’s red card has since been rescinded and if Bamford accepts his charge, or is found guilty, he will be banned for two games.
The 25-year-old’s absence would be a huge blow for Leeds – and Merson was left bemused by his behaviour.

“Patrick Bamford, what’s he doing?” the Sky Sports pundit said.
“He could stitch Leeds up for the rest of the season, because he’s their only centre forward. He could miss the play offs. Do they know there’s a million cameras there?
“These have done great this season, Leeds. Now they’re going to lose one of their best players. On his day he’s a special player. Now he’s spoilt it and probably his reputation.â€
