Derby County head coach Steve McClaren:
"Patrick Bamford's come in and his temperament is fantastic. It's as if he's been here for years. I think he's shown in the two games the qualities he's got. He's a natural goalscorer and the goal, there was no backlift. It was just hit early with pace, power. We've got a real asset on our hands.
"He's got a long way to go and a lot to learn but he's a sensible and very intelligent boy and he's making the right steps. He wants to play every game but he's being patient and showing everybody what he can do when he comes on. We've got three games this week and he'll definitely start one.
Will He Make It ?

I think 8 more season long loans should do it.

he is obviously a big talent but the jump from talented teenager to PL starter for us seems to get bigger every year.
If none of the current crop of players out on loan make it as a regular starter in the next few years it will be a big disappointment.
Having said that a couple of PL titles would go a long way to getting me over that disappointment.

I agree with Gazza, I think his relatively understated rise has been an advantage for his development.
