If he was a youngster from the academy and we didn't pay 8m and 45k a week I'd bet he would be released.
People say he hasn't played many minutes..... A reason for that, a big reason. Been fit for months now.

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

Oh come on.
How long does it take to get match fit? A lot of players come back from far worse injuries and get back to playing soon soon enough.
Match sharpness won't help him with the very basics.

Exactly u didnt watch the game, so u can't comment on it![]()
My mate told me a horse would win today, doesn't mean it's true.
I watched the game and he was terrible in the air.
I've defended him untill today but how long can we keep defending him for. He got taken off for a reason, coz he was shite. And another great decision by ole because his replacement came on and scored with virtually his first touch

I do know for a fact, somebody isn't match fit after one start in the first team. If you have defended him all along, why are you turning on him after, what you view as a poor 45 minutes? fickle? that's almost schziophrenic.

Green Arrow wrote:I said he was crap in the beginning. Its obvious when a player isn't up to it or just doesn't have it. Most of us today knew that Daehli was within moments and he had that something. We didn't need weeks and weeks to assess him. It was plain to see that theres some true talent there. Cornelius has nothing and thats a fact. The good thing is Daehli may well go on to be worth around £20m + as the lad is talented weighing out the loss on Cornelius to some degree.
Also, why would Solskjaer want Jones if Cornelius is up to the job? He clearly does not think he's up to the job hence bringing in the same type of striker albeit more experienced and capable at this level. That alone speaks volumes on the assessment on Cornelius. If he was good enough, why sign Jones? Why not tell Stoke we want cash for Odemwingie? Cornelius will go in the summer in my opinion for around £2-4m and we'll cut our losses on him. I have faith that with these little bargain signings Ole is pulling off we'll recoup the money regardless if we stay up. If not then the value of every asset plummets as is often the case unless we hold out like Palace did for Zaha.

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![]()
