Patrick Bamford - should he get a chance?

I could see Drogba being done at the end of this season, and us going into next with Costa, Remy, Bamford

agreed & there are CFC fans thinking the club should go after Kane. I keep asking why when CFC has Bamfordinho in their ranks. Give the lad a chance I say!!!

 
the lad seems to be intent on doing everything to give himself the best launchpad to catch JM's attention. good.

 
With the talk of drogba wanting to extend his contract, It's tough to know whether he'll get a chance next season. I want him to, but if he doesn't mind being loaned out again and boro make it into the EPL, then another season long loan would make sense. Me personally, I would really like to see him 3rd choice here and, honestly, I'd probably forfeit remy for bamford if push came to shove. If José makes him a part of the team next seaskn, then that would be a great sign for thr future of CFC.

 
Never going to play regularly for Chelsea. Don't even think he'd get more than a start or two if he'd scored a hat trick against City

 
scored again yesterday, and he's playing on the right wing for borough

 
I want him here as 3rd choice, but that is assuming we win the title, there is less pressure on Jose and he can give more minutes to the youngsters. I think Bamford being here this season would have been a waste of a year for him. Training with the team has its benefits of course, but it doesn't come close to playing regularly.

 
Would jose trust a costa/remy/bamford strikeforce? I think the only way bamford gets 3rd choice next season, is if we bring in another big name striker, and remy leaves.

Just can't see Mourinho being comfortable with remy and bamford. He hasn't put too much faith in remy this year.

 
Bamford is a smart player and i think he would really flourish here surrounded by creative talent. At Boro he is starved of top quality service, thus why he has had to use his movement wisely and get into positions to make his own chances. I like him a lot and i think he can thrive with us if given a chance. Jose seems to really rate him if what bamford and others in the know have said, so i really see no reason why he wouldn't get his chance next season.

I can't see him being around the first team next season. I think if Boro get promoted Jose would preferably want him there for one more season before coming back here.

Boro getting promoted would be fantastic for bamford next season. Even if bamford goes out on loan and scores 15 in the prem next year, I find it hard to believe he will get given a shot here. Really hope I'm wrong but our loanee's don't have the best record at coming back and breaking through.

 
Jose seems to favour the strong aggressive target man type of striker than a poacher like Bamford top player but can't see him making it here hope he proves me wrong though!

 
Would love love love to see this boy get a chance. Even if he starts as 3rd choice I can just imagine him coming on and catching a late goal here and there and eventually earning his shot. It probally won't happen but would really love it and this kid just has that instict to score which can't b taught, please give him a chance Jose whether next season or the season after, let's hope.

 
Bamford's been great lately and I would love to bring him back at some point in the near future! If Boro get promoted to the EPL this season it be might worth considering keep him there to see if he can cope with the EPL but all signs look great so far.

If he was to play as third striker next season I'd be ecstatic for the young lad. Deserves a real go and has potential to succeed here if he continues putting in the hard yards.

Their top scorer Leadbitter was also on the bench last night, can only assume the manager was confident of a result against bottom of the league Blackpool. 

What a cracking season he's having again though, when was the last time we had a player be so consistent and successful on loan from the academy? (I know we bought him for £1m from Forest but he sort of counts)
