Just scored again think we should have kept him

Not sure about keeping him but really happy hes doing well. Definitely a championship quality striker!

Why? Because he's scored a few in the league below? :lol:

Not good enough, simple as that.

Cornelius isn't even League One at the moment. I'd take Deeney, McCormack, Rhodes, Gestede or even Earnshaw over Cornelius. He's crap.

Agree about Cornelius, but this isnt a reason to keep another striker who also isnt good enough, deeneys a good shout though

Where have I said that he is? :? Just because Cornelius isn't currently cutting it, doesn't mean that Rudy would. He wouldn't be good enough either.

Ah right :? You argumentative kent I never even insinuated that you mentioned Cornelius. I bet you were a dangerous grass when inventing things like that chuckles dear.

Gestede is a great example of how much a player can improve; he used to get so much stick but now some fans actually think we shouldn't have sold him.

Cornelius is much younger and has more potential than Gestede, so lets just remember that he has years of improvement to make yet. :thumbup:

Couldn't agree more mate. In my opinion it was a big mistake letting him go when we didn't have a prolific striker. :ayatollah:

Cornelius should have gone on loan and kept rudy as back up.

Re: Gestede

Sat Jan 25, 2014 6:25 pm

Just because he s scored in a division below ffs
You couldn't make it up
When we were in the division below chuckles berated gestede at every opportunity that he didn't score enough
Now he's scoring regularly still not good enough for our idiot chuckles
Rudy is better off where he is and I hope he's being given more respect from his new teams supporters because he never got much from the idiots on here :ayatollah:

Too right mate. People like this chuckles character will look for an argument any where he can.
Good luck to you Rudy.

I remember how much stick he used to get on here yet you and I defended him all the time and Chuckles used to call me troll over it and say I didn't really believe that. Truth be told, i never thought he was as good as I said, world class, but I did think he'd come good and be a good asset to the team. Still don't know why we've kept Cornelius and let him go. We'd have been better off keeping Gestede and loaning out Cornelius to the Championship so he can get some game time and toughen up a bit.

Re: Gestede

Sat Jan 25, 2014 8:38 pm

Another malky howler
why he never gave him a chance
he could come back to haunt us in timw

Yes, because he didn't score enough. :thumbup: It's not enough for Cardiff City no, because we are in the premiership now.

Again, more double standards - you regularly slate Whitts, yet get upset when people slate your favourite player.

I used to call you a troll for it because you claimed nonsense like he was world class and would be off to Arsenal and be a champions league winner. No problem with you defending him... all opinions welcome. :thumbup:

Gestede currently backing up the reasons why I thought he was good enough, hope he continues. Currently showing a few fans that they are wrong.

I don't think he is proving anyone wrong but more showing up malkys decision to sign Cornelius.
Both not good enough.

Of course he is. People always belittled him for silly things when he gets goals.

Re: Gestede

Sun Jan 26, 2014 1:09 am

He was always OK, doesn't make him a premiership striker.
Just like paying 8m for Cornelius doesn't make him a premium striker.

I don't care for these little battles of who is right and wrong and point pointscoring. Comes down to neither are good enough for us.

really.........when he plays and scores regular at the top level you have a point..at the mo,he went for a small fee to a championship club that are not as good as we were last year...........he obviously isnt good enough or he would have cost a better club than Blackburn millions

Re: Gestede

Sun Jan 26, 2014 2:19 am

ffs :laughing5:

He was total shite for us, he will never ever make it in the Premier League and we have about 5 other strikers who are better than him. When will people realise this?

Re: Gestede

Sun Jan 26, 2014 3:09 am

Gestede scores important goals for us such as:

http://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/foot ... ty-2506634
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22049851

and Cornelius cant even run properly and people say he will come good. Every time he plays its 'he's one for the future'. Our fan base is full of Malky brainwashed clones. Malky signed Odemwingie and barely played Cornelius himself because he realised what a balls up he made. The 'he's one for the future' line was a load of crap. Nobody spends £8m in their first Premier League season on a player for the future unless they're dropping acid like Tyson dropped other boxers.

Our fans are laughable at times.

Maybe we should sign some 16 year olds who just left Willows and Cantonian as well and put them in the first team. They might come good in about 5 years with Cornelius. You're clueless honestly. Cornelius is shit and Gestede is better and would be a better option off the bench if Jones or Campbell aren't available. Instead we've got Todd from Breaking Bad running around like a headless chicken.

:lol:

Gestede was given the chance plenty of times after two years with us and overall he was shite.

Cornelius hasn't even played 90 minutes in the league yet. Once he's been with us for two years, then you can compare them both. He needs our support instead of people like you not even giving him a chance.

The reason Cornelius doesn't get a full 90 minutes is because he keeps getting dragged off half time when he starts for being shite and offering nothing.

I'm in agreement with a few in this thread that neither could or would cut it at top level. Rudy was shite, Cornelius lets face it, is the most expensive mistake in our clubs history.

Re: Gestede

Sun Jan 26, 2014 8:34 am

Players need to be playing every week and they need to feel good at a club.
not everyone has super human genetics some players can play occasionally an do well players like gustede need to be fit an playing every week
