Chelsea striker confirms termination of loan
Patrick Bamford has cut short his loan spell with Crystal Palace
 
Bamford moved to Selhurst Park on a season-long loan in the summer with the aim of gaining some Premier League experience after spending the last two seasons in the Championship.
But the 22-year-old has failed to make a single league start for the Eagles and will now return to Stamford Bridge sooner than expected. 
He told News Shopper: "That was my last game. I've told them I'm going back" 
 
Last season Bamford won Championship Player of the Year award while on loan at Middlesbrough. 
Upon his return to Chelsea he signed a new three-year deal before joining up with Alan Pardew's side. 
 
He said: "I have only had a short career but I would say this has been one of the most upsetting times since I have been playing football. To not play and sit on the bench is not enjoyable.
“But I am not the type of guy to quit and say that I have failed. I would not want that to follow me around for the rest of my career. 
"So I am going to give it a shot and I think I have the ability to do it. Once I get a run of games I am sure it will happen.”
