Nottingham Forest are considering a £1.5m bid from Chelsea for 18 year old striker Bamford.

Say hello to the new Fabio Borini.

Touche! I'm so pissed off (not that player but the club's confused thinking). Chelsea - the club that has the forward thinking to invest shitloads in youngsters but the short termism to never give them a chance...

... I'm not even sure KDB will get a real chance - I'm sure he'll be sent to a Swansea or Bolton.

hello new Borini!

[ulsterchelsea 3,213]

Never seen him kick ball, what's he like? I only ask because I want to make sure vitesse will get a good un

We have an 18 year old striker who is ready for 1st team struggling to get a chance and we want to bring in another one? Now, that's the Chelsea I know!

Anyway, welcome to the club (if you sign) and all the best in your future career.

Yeah, your career at Derby County or Wigan in a few years...

this fits in with the Patience thread ...

no longer do I believe we will ever produce from our academy UNLESS we improve the coaching . A start might be to bring in Zola.

I really don't understand the point of such transfers.. they are probably hoping that at least one from tens and tens of kids they sign will turn the favour with a multiplied financial profit. He would probably be another Prosenik in the youths, a useful player for them but with 0 outlooks to first team.

Sick goal. Left-footed striker, I see.

seriously !!! we got Lukaku and he has appeared for us like 5 times in total ... but I would give both these kids a 90 mins on pitch in a 4-4-2 ...

-Iva-Cahill-Terry--Bertrand

--Essien--Romeu--Mereiles-Mata---

---------Lukaku--Bamford---------

:D

another left footer?

[Spike 12,049]

Play him against ManUnited and he will score a hattrick. Next Michael Owen.

Seriously, I give up on the First team, we will get better results with the reserves.

[Melanicus 5,208]

Welcome! :cfc:
