CONFIRMED Patrick Bamford signs a new 18 month contract

[S64 Blade]

I predict he’ll score tomorrow and at least another 6 goals before January, get a contract and be out injured by February

I wouldn’t be surprised at all by this.

More likely he plays himself into a bit of form for us - but then signs for an MLS team in January!

What is quite impressive about Bamford is his underrated creativity.

For every 2.5 goals he scores he assists one more.

That stacks up pretty well when you put it alongside his goal every 191 minutes ratio, not to mention when 319 out of his 356 appearances have been in the top two tiers and with 217 of those being at the top level.

He’s only just 32 as well. Not as if he’s ready for the knackers yard yet.

I’m not quite saying McGoldrick vibes but this could end up being a clever move. He’s also good in the air which the team has been begging for.

Like those stats, thank you. I just hope he has some legs left and we don’t isolate him like we seem to lie to do with our forwards

 

[diplomat]

Campbell has been poor and not looked interested, we can't keep picking him based on last seasons form and hope he comes good.
Time for a rest and a kick up the arse

I’m no chiropractor but he plays like a man with a bad back, speaking as a man with a bad back. I think he’s basically performed admirably as I think he’s fucked after an hour (I’m talking about his entire spell)

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Starting what ?

A 10 game goal scoring streak

 

[I should coco]

So, Ings, Campbell, One, Cannon, would get all the match minutes and Bamford never feature??

At the moment he isn't match fit,so no, he wouldn't feature.

I guess he has a solid championship career under his belt, but I've never rated him. Even in Bielsa's dynamic attacking side, he missed too many chances.

I take you point though. With our current attack ing4, so out of form, maybe he could go the bench in a week or two, but it's very much a punt.

 

[ekke287]

Wilders not brought him in on a short spell to not play him. He’ll be starting today.

 

[Nick Jansky]

Sign him until the end of the season. He’s going to be good for us.

 

[Brian Deane]

Great debut, albeit a short one

 

[Bladesman]

Quality debut, showed exactly what we were missing and unlucky not to bag a goal himself.

 

[Rodley]

Will link up the play like McGoldrick did. If he’s fit will be an asset.

Some crazy meltdowns about a 6 week signing, but that’s modern football fans I guess.

 

[SELondon_Bladette]

Had my doubts, but on watching that debut it seems they were unfounded. I think he could be class for us

 

[FTPE]

Very good cameo. He was cool and calm and could have had a goal and an assist.

 

[Frank the tank]

Sign him until the end of the season. He’s going to be good for us.

Thought he was class when he came on

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Thought he was class when he came on

Me too. He’s got a great first touch

 

[blades78]

Promising start for him. His link play is a better than anything else we have and the pass to Cannon was quality

 

[SwissBlade]

Thought he was class when he came on

Made the difference kept the pressure on them. Looked very good

 

[Bladesman]

Promising start for him. His link play is a better than anything else we have and the pass to Cannon was quality

He looks up and tries to pick out other players.

 

[Nick Jansky]

Will link up the play like McGoldrick did. If he’s fit will be an asset.

Some crazy meltdowns about a 6 week signing, but that’s modern football fans I guess.

I enjoy the meltdowns. They can be very entertaining and also useful for gauging who to take no notice of in any debate.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

He looked very good today to be fair.

(humble pie moment).

 

[Berkshire Blade]

7 touches.

Made a good first cameo. Should have had an assist and a better ball or bit of luck and a goal!

 

[BrayfordsBushyBeard]

He looked excellent today and is certainly different to what we already have . Hopefully he can stay fully fit !
As ever UTB !

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Looked good. Mini highlights of him on Sky showed his class really well.
Hilarious seeing him doing Wilder is a wanker, with CW , song and dance at the end, in front of away end. Great stuff.

 

[Bladey_blade]

Watching that I'm annoyed it took us til November to get him. Didn't look like a player that's not had much football last few seasons, could be a big part of the revival

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Let’s be right. Him, Ings and Mee are very astute signings. And as we’re qualifying for the Play Offs, their experience will be invaluable.

 

[I should coco]

I'm happy to munch on a small slice of humble pie, based on that.

He doesn't score enough goals, but he did what was asked today.

 

[blade67]

Great debut, albeit a short one

I did laugh that his first act in a blades shirt was to through himself to the deck in the penalty area.

 

[Blademan89]

Looked well when he came on for his cameo, excellent pass for cannons 1v1, u mucky with the backflick (should have dummies it or tbh seriki should have passed to an unmarked peck).

Another two I hope can keep fit.

 

[bladesince64]

I did laugh that his first act in a blades shirt was to through himself to the deck in the penalty area.

He got totalled by Cooper.

Ref seemed to have forgot about the rules around what is or isn't a penalty today.

 

[Mad Mick]

Impressive Cameo
