Re: Josh Murphy

Their season is also over already, no point keeping him hanging around really.

I wonder if that means we have to pick up the rest of his wage for the next few weeks

I doubt we'll be paying, makes zero benefit to us. Probably just don't want him around.

Re: Josh Murphy

Absolute waste of a talent.

The biggest flop in the last decade?

Re: Josh Murphy

Would he be training with the first team? I wonder where he'll end up. He's 27. He should be reaching his peak. You'd think seeing how well his brother is doing would give him a kick up the arse.

I think he'll go back nearer to home, maybe take a one year deal and hopefully kick on. I don't think he's going to find a top Champ club.

I think Cornelius (and his agent) would beg to differ. He has a career. He's not prolific, but he scores goals. He plays international football.

ok I'll take the bait....

Cornelius was a teenager, we spent less money on than Murphy and we recouped a good chunk of it. He then went on to have a decent career in some good European leagues.

Murphy is our third highest signing ever, and we won't recoup anything for that investment. I'll wager he won't be scoring goals in Serie A any time soon either.

I think we lost about 5m on Cornelius and 10m on Murphy, admittedly Murphy did more for us while he was here.

None of our biggest transfers are particularly good reading tbh

Didn’t we get the money back on Bobby Reid, caulker and medel? Plus the biggest scoop ever on zohore? The club never seems to mentions sales in the accounts do they?:hehe:

Yeah I think we got almost all the money back on Reid, Caulker and Medel, so there's at least that.

on the other hand, none of them made any kind of lasting contribution to the club
