Pat Bamford

[Rogero]

Not if we go up, I wouldn't have thought.

Probably borderline if we don't, come to think of it.

I think he is at he end of the line.

 

[Del Fenner]

He was utter $hite. I wouldn't wish him on my worst enemies.

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

He was utter $hite. I wouldn't wish him on my worst enemies.

He started no games in the premier league and had 5 substitute appearances for Palace.

And in a team who create no chances for their strikers.

Apart from that, PLENTY to judge his ability on.

 

[Bob!]

+ if we do get to the promised land we will have money to buy qualified strikers ........thats if we want them try out with what we have for a few months at least
will we sign Bobby for another year?

I can't see Bobby getting another year whatever division we are in.

It would be nice to give him (and Calde) one game if we got to the First Division though.

I dont think his ability was in question , more his attitude.

 

[LlcoolJ]

Given the riches on offer it wouldn't cost much to give Bobby one season in the PL if we got promoted.

And it would put the icing on the cake. Who wouldn't love to see him come on and score against Man United (or Palace).

*takes off rose tinted glasses*

 

[Se20]

Good luck with that !
Came across as a Billy big bollocks, and didn't seemed to be bothered when given the chance.
See him returning to Boro.

Yeah, yeah you would, wouldn't you?

I mean, there was I thinking with a certain degree of irritation that he looked quite a decent signing for Palace when he joined in the summer, so obviously I was wishing he'd turn out to be total crap for you. And so it came to pass

 

[Stat Brother]

Was he banging on about playing in Europe and managing the national team?

 

[Pavilionaire]

If Bamford really has said he doesn't want to play in the Championship then he's a fool.

He's never had regular football in the Prem while top Championship strikers such as Rhodes and McCormack go for 8 figure sums with all the signing-on booty that entails, while players like Moussa Dembele of Fulham bag 14 or 15 goals and put themselves centre stage for a summer bidding war. Oh, and Charlie Austin spent half the season with QPR in the Championship yet is still in with a shout of making the England Euro 2016 squad.

 

[crodonilson]

Looks like he's out of our reach now. Middleborough, Sunderland and Swansea battling it out for his signature.

 

[Red'n'Blue]

Not a Premier League player.

Good let them battle and us not get involved

 

[Springal]

Not a Premier League player.

Agreed. Has done nothing in that league despite chances. Might come with age and getting a season + promoted from Championship might help that but not now

 

[Bladders]

Not a Premier League player.

He thinks he is though. Which is why I'd steer clear.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Meh.

 

[Springal]

Possibly. Saw some of his appearances for Norwich and just looks too lightweight

I actually think these young Chelsea starlets get worse the more they're farmed out on loan.

Take Chalobah, looked the next big thing when at Watford, but since then has been loaned out to 5 different clubs getting less game time every loan.

He was warming the bench at Napoli last I looked.

Josh Mceachren is another, another promising player going nowhere but some 6 month loan deal for the rest of his career.


Bamford again looked great in his first couple of loan spells but has gone nowhere at Norwich and Palace.


Maybe if he left Chelsea and signed a proper deal with a club he could actually develop properly.

 

[Marshy]

I bet someone spends 7 or 8 million on him........

The way he left us as well was poor.

(Although it must be tough working in Croydon when you live in Chelsea)
