Thread: Cornelius

  1. #1

    Cornelius

    Started for Denmark last night in their win over The Swiss, and dragged a defender out of position for their winner.

    8 goals in 25 appearances for Denmark. How many of our present crop of strikers would do similar at international level?

    He was injured after his first month here and didn't play for the next five months due to that injury. He was then sold without playing again. FACT.

    8 games for us, 0 goals.

    Averaging about 1 goal in 6 for the last 2 seasons too.

    In serie A he scores about 1 goal per 3x 90 minutes.

    Exactly my sentiments. He was never fit - and couldn't be properly judged.

    I heard Warnock wanted to bring him back - until Vincent's face turned purple......

    Re: Cornelius

    Andreas Cornelius didn't start a league game for City before being sold back to Copenhagen for an undisclosed fee.

    Meanwhile, Gary Madine's league stats for Cardiff are as follows:

    6 (+13) appearances, 0 goals.

    This season he's made a grand total of one appearance in the Championship (in the first game) and hasn't been seen since. He can't even get on the bench.

    Madine reportedly cost £6 million. Somehow, I can't see anyone buying him any time soon. Cornelius is regularly described as the worst transfer in City's history, but surely Madine will represent worse value for money unless he somehow works his way into the team and starts scoring goals.

    There can't be many strikers in our history to have made as many appearances as Madine and not scored a goal.

    We received a reported seven figure loan fee for Madine from Sheffield United last season plus a seven figure bonus for him when Sheffield Utd got promotion. Our net outlay on him is therefore considerably reduced and not bad value considering we got promotion with him in the squad and he contributed a number of assists, including to the equaliser at Sheffield United, without which we would not have gone up automatically.

    I'm praying for the day we sell Madine. Although I've not been a fan of his since he signed for us, that's not the reason why I'm so desperate for him to go - it's to read what you start saying about him when he's no longer our player.

    Where were these figures reported? I find it hard to believe that Sheffield United agreed to pay at least a million pounds for a short-term loan deal... Never mind the inclusion of another million pounds on top of that for promotion.

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Any links to these reports you've read?

    A promotion payment due on a loan player is a new one for me

    Two seven figure payments, at least £2 million Utter shite are the only two words I can use to describe these ‘reported’ figures!!

    Feeney comes to mind.
    Even Eddie scored a couple and even an own goal.

    Good shout. I'd forgotten about him. He managed 7 starts and 15 substitute appearances for us in all competitions without a goal. Madine is 1 sub appearance from that record. Feeney didn't cost up to £6m though!

    That Doncaster game is one of my favourite city memories though, when he scored his first the bob bank went apeshit

    Rubbish! Your facts are incorrect. He did not play 8 games for us! Eight games would make 720 mins. He actually played 107 mins for us in 8 substitute appearances. That's the equivalent of playing 1 game and 17 mins.

    If you are interested he played:

    Aug 25th 2013 … Man C (h) … 1 min
    *Nov 24th 2013 … Man U (h) … 6 mins
    Nov 30th 2013 … Arsenal (h) … 3 mins
    Dec 7th 2013 … C Pal (a) … 22 mins
    Dec 21st 2013 ...Liverpool (a) … 10 mins
    Dec 26th 2013 … Southampton (h) … 45 mins
    Dec 28th 2013 … Sunderland (h) … 8 mins
    Jan 11th 2014 … WHU (h) … 12 mins

    * He suffered a very bad ankle injury in a cup game which meant he was out injured for 3 months before this game.
