Chelsea striker Patrick Bamford has turned down Newcastle Utd and will report for pre-season training with the Blues. Striker recruitment not going that well so far it appears. Reports suggest another target Charlie Austin wont move north.
Have to agree, my thoughts were he is more in line with an Ince type player, which makes you wonder if they will pursue their option to buy.
I suspect they will play him upfront with Bent, Weimann's work rate is one of his only assets, so him doing all the running for Bent to concentrate on putting the ball in the back of the net without worrying about running the channels, could be a decent partnership.
