Is Macheda worse than Cornelius ?

Sorry perhaps the question should be how much worse than Cornelius is he....

Not even league 2

Lucky they had one sent of as it evened up the game

Never really had a chance to see Cornelius, but Macheda is awful at the moment.

Silly question, no! Cornelius cost £8m, couldn't do f**k all! Macheda has 3/4 goals and been shit, cost nothing!

I hope we can get rid of him as easily as Cornelius.....

Macheda is awful he really is. How is he getting a game ffs.

Because our manager only picks those doing it in training and on the pitch

Macheda contributes very little and should be nowhere near the fist team ....... another gutless performance from him ,

who is not up for any battle at all ........ an easy time for defenders when he is playing

I noticed Scott Young berating him to get involved and then he put in a feeble challenge it was embarrassing

I know Slade can only work with what he's got at the moment ,

but I hope this player is out of our club ASAP , no backbone whatsoever

Jones should be playing.

Slade says Guerra isn't playing as his attitude in training isn't right but what about Macheda attitude & performances during matches !!! Im not saying Guerra is the answer but feck me Macheda definitely isn't

If we ever see that useless lump again in a City shirt, whatever colour it is it will only serve to prove that Slade is incompetent and will take us nowhere. Except down, perhaps.

Bit of a strange comparison. It's like comparing Ralls and Medel.

Unfortunately we didn't see enough of Cornelius

Why, both play exactly the same position, physically the same.

Cost is irrelevant in the point i am making. Cornelius was so poor Malky realised he wasn't going to make it,albeit in the premier league, made lame excusses but didn't playhim.
Somebody misguidedly believes Macheda is a championship footballer, is that Dalman/Tan or Slade. Either scenario is concerning.

How is price irrelevant?
I don't understand your point sorry.

100% yes! Mavheda is one of the worst strikers I gave seen at City.

Side footed a shot in and had 2 tap ins. Other than that he has done nothing. Does not win any ball in the air, dies not run off the ball, does not hold the ball up & he has a terrible touch. What else can be said.

It us concerning when the management keep picking him in front if the club's top goalscorer who wins everything in the air!

How is price irrelevant?
I don't understand your point sorry.

Because I am talking them as footballers not assets. We didn't take a gamble on Macheda like we did with Rudy. Macheda will be on big bucks

So was corenlius, didn't we raise his wages to 45k

If we are just talking about them as players then I wouldn't want either here.

macheda has ability he's just in a very poor run of form and nothing is falling for him.

cornelius was just shit full stop and didnt look like a professional footballer let alone a PL one.

I backed acorn to the hilt but soon realised this had nothing to do with injury! He didn't have a clue and genuinely looked like he had been picked up from the local rugby club. Macheda has found the net. Can't even compare.

Macheda is like 22/23 so still young and did notch a few in for Birmingham.

He also got 5 in all competitions for us hasn't he?

If he scores goals for us and isn't doing the best, I ain't complaining. If he got 10 for us in the league I would say that's great considering we got him on a free.

I watched the 6 minute highlights and he seemed to be very involved for us in the attacking moments, I missed the game but judging on that if he was involved in our attacks then that's my judgement.

He was appalling first half on Friday, but there's more to his game than Kenwyne. He was showing a good understanding with Alf, but that seems to have disappeared with all our recent disjointed performances. I think he lacks confidence. Cornelius did nothing!

We shouldn't have sold corn-dog. He would be a beast in this league by now.

Anyone who says cornelius was total shit 'full stop' clearly has an agenda against a certain person or they are looking for a scapegoat because he had about 100 minutes in his entire career for us, coming from a foreign country and after an injury.

I don't think any of us saw enough of Cornelius to make a proper assessment.
Yes, the tiny bit I saw, he looked poor but Macheda looks poor as well. His link up play & holding the ball up is bad, his touch is shocking at times & he looks like he's running through soft sand when he actually does run.

Macheda has got 5 goals and shown touches of genuine class. His movement is actually better than Jones, which doesn't make it great. Cornelius looked totally lost!

Yes Cornelius did look totally lost I can't argue with that but so did Macheda at some of his many clubs before Birmingham.
I'm not saying Cornelius is better by any stretch of the imagination but I'm saying he was just a kid who certainly at the time was nowhere near good enough for Premiership football but with time may have done a job in the Championship. Who knows nobody saw enough of him.
IMO Machada is a very poor player & I don't want to see him start for Cardiff.

Why did not one see enough of him..... Because we all knew including malky he was rubbish. Let's not be fooled, if he was gd enough he would have been rushed back from injury.
