Plum pruning advice

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I'm totally new to growing fruit trees and I just need some guidance.

This is a three and half year old greengage. This year it gave just two fruit, but put on a lot of vertical growth.

A year after it was planted, I removed lower branches, leaving the goblet shape for now. It is a bit lopsided as I think one can see.

I'm just wondering how to prune to get a good fruit next year, without losing the shape.

    I agree with pansyface. It seems to be a young tree so I wouldn't expect it to get loads of fruit just yet.
