Chelsea striker Patrick Bamford is ready to prove himself at Norwich City.

Bamford concedes joining a club mired in a relegation battle is a first in his young career.

“I am excited. It can only help better me as a player," he said. “I haven't had to experience being involved in a battle to stay up so it is another learning curve. All I can do is play my best for Norwich and hopefully help to keep them up. Last year at Middlesbrough I learnt quite a bit about playing for the team and not just myself. It changed the way I looked at things and hopefully that can help me in this situation.

“I'll play anywhere the manager asks me to. I think every striker here at Norwich offers something a little bit different. I have assets that they probably don't have and vice versa. There are certainly things I can learn from them because they are a few years older than me and have that experience."
