I want to score as many as I can, assist as many as I can. I work a lot on my finishing in training and at the moment it’s paying off. It’s just the start of the season but I need to keep doing my best every day and keep improving so I can get back to Chelsea, where I’d like to be.

Baker then went on to speak about the quality of the Eredivisie, before stating his desire to follow in the footsteps of player who have impressed in Holland before moving to the Premier League.

It’s a very good league. There’s a lot of young talent out here. There are also a lot of players who have played out here and moved on to the Premier League. If I keep going the way I’m going that’s one of my dreams I want to make come true.
