He's available for 10 apparently but that's after a good season for Newcastle. I reckon 8/9 could have got him last summer.

He was offered to the club on loan for the season Chris for less than we were paying Cornelius per week with no loan fee.malky dident want him

agree !! What the fu#k happened here, I've had a feeling all along that this just didn't seem right. What would Steve Bruce have done with that amount? A lot me thinksJinks wrote:Still can't get my head around us buying cornelius when there was tried and tested players available for less..

IFFFFF we go down we will only be lumbered with Kenwyn Jones. Our much heralded recruitment dept with the CEO must have made the commitment we would only purchase players who had a resale value. Cornelius was a gamble that he would make it and be top 6 class eventually.
Rhodes, Austin and others mentioned are all at the peak of their value based upon championship performances. How many championship make it first season ?
Caulker will be playing for a top 6 team
Medel is the captain of a team that took the piss out of England
Cornelius was Scandinavian player of the year. The gamble probably appeared sane at the time

The whole issue with the Cornelius transfer is that we could have allegedly bought him for 2 million euros six weeks prior to actually signing him which is why tan is making such a big issue out of it.
If we had bought him for that price then perhaps we could have afforded to give him a season to prove himself.
I don't believe the tactics that Malky employed suited corneliuses style and odenwingie touched on that in his interview after joining stoke.
Both strikers wanted the ball down the channels but in reality the majority of both strikers service was trying to get on the end of turners hoofball

The cornelius signing is the main reason we will be relegated IMO. If loic remy was signed we would of stayed up, the failure to sign a good right and left back fukt us over as well. To much money spent on to little players.
