Seems he's now learnt that lesson the hard way.
In which case Malky was really having a laugh with Cornelius then. Medel and Caulker justified big fees, but Corny was a huge surprise (and risk) and turned out as we expected.

I hope that he (Corny not Malky!) makes it with Atalanta btw - that would be nice.
