Heard a rumour we've agreed to sign him in the summer but only if we get promoted as he doesn't want to play Championship football.

Why would he be playing Championship football if Chelsea aren't going to get relegated? He's on loan at Norwich and like at Palace he doesn't seem to be cutting it. He's a good Championship level striker but hasn't proved he's better than that.

Couldn't force his way into an injury-ravaged Palace side that scores once a fortnight.
Not for me. As said, he's a decent Championship striker, but you'd need better than Bamford up front if you're going to make a fist of it in the PL.

+ 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?

He's better than decent at Championship level. Yet to be given a proper go in the Prem I'd say. If we don't go up then I'd be very keen.

No thanks, if we make the Premier League we will need 3 new strikers in my opinion, all of which will need to be better than Bamford.
Even though I think he got a rough deal at Palace as they only play 1 up top.. he needs a partner
I would be looking at us spending the bulk of our money in that area, the same applies if we dont go up.
Its clearly the area of the pitch we lack that real bit of quality in.

Doesn't want to come if we're still in Champ.

Something wrong with him, he can't get in a Palace team that can't score and goes to Norwich and can't get in their team. Maybe an attitude problem or he ends up like Chalobah, McEachran and all the other youngsters who disappear off of the face of the earth after one promising on loan season in the Champ

This.

Another player who is obsessed with chasing the £ instead of trying to better himself as a player in training, surrounded by International players.

Ibrahimavich is a year older than Zamore and he shows no signs of slowing down, Unfortunately BZ hobbles around like an old man now, I dont think we will sign him if we go up.

Zamora is older

Zamora is 9 months older.

If we go up, I would be AMAZED if Zamora is given a contract. He's a club legend and all that, but I think his Premier League days are behind him.

I really hope we do. I'm pretty sure no one has ever played for us in all four divisions. And imagine if he managed to score too. It would take his legendaryness to new dimensions.

100th goal for the club a late winner against Palace.

That would be nice.
