Even when he doesn't win a header, he throws off the defender marking him enough to disrupt them and potentially allow another teammate to win the ball. He's certainly not quick, but I think he can do a job as a target man. Everybody is on his ass about his transfer fee and wages but as others have said, that's not his fault. He certainly outplayed Mason today and I was hoping to see him play with Campbell but that didn't happen. He'll come good. Will he ever justify the transfer fee? Who knows, but if given the time and chance, I think he'll become a good player for us.
I agree.
I believe Cornelius will become an important player for the Bluebirds.He showed some strenghts and progression yesterday,ok pace and technique for a big guy,he moved around and tried making himself available for his team-mates.Campbell was almost invisible in second half in comparison,in my view.I like Campbell a lot,he will become a top striker soon,but I think Cornelius also is close to finding back to his strenght and can become just as important for Cardiff as Cambpell is now.They are different as strikers,and it is very good for a team to have players with different strenghts.
Cornelius still needs some more games and get back some more confidence,but it will come.
I predict Cornelius coming in as supersub after 75 minutes against Man United,crushing Vidic in a header or two and scoring at least one goal![]()
He'll have a difficult job crushing Vidic, as he's suspended!![]()

What are your opinions on Malky's eye for a player, Do you think he is blind?

I didn't watch the game today, but I was toldthat Cornelius has a massive leap and looks potentially unplayable in arial battles.

You could say Arnie Schwarzenegger has a massive leap and looks potentially unplayable in arial battles. It wouldn't make him a good footballer.

Do you think Arnie looks unplayable at premiereship level?

SO...for a target man who's 6'whatever, he can't win an aerial battle for love nor money, but did anyone else see what he could do on the ground? He can cut players up, keep possession of the ball and he's not afraid to run at the defence. Admittedly his shooting isn't top notch but, again, the boy has been injured and needs to find his feet.
I'll give him a few starts before judging him in a negative way. At the end of the day he's only young, he needs his confidence boosted by the fans.
I don't believe that price tag was in any way accurate and his wages are way too high. If he doesn't start earning his wages then OGS will ship him out. Let our manager decide if he's good enough.

I heard that too. When Cornelius was playing against the 7 dwarfs, he won every header!
£8million is ALOT of money even in this league - with the amount of wages he gets every week, he should atleast be troubling the goalkeeper every now and then. He won't get a sniff when Kenwyn Jones plays alongside Campbell.

Of course it's alot of money...
Not including the likes of Man Utd, Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal or Spurs obviously.
He is the biggest pile of shite I've seen this season.. He gives Odemwinge a drive for his money.
