We have three more goals to bring you from Chelsea’s army of loanees in what was a bumper week of action up to and over the Easter Weekend. We begin, as is becoming customary, with Patrick Bamford.

A fine recent run of Chelsea loanee goalscoring was extended into an eleventh consecutive week over the past seven days as Patrick Bamford, Lewis Baker and Gael Kakuta each added to an ever-growing tally for the season overall.
