Maxwel Cornet

[Alberts__Lob]

Lots of reports in the last few hours that we're going to trigger his release clause of £17.5 million.

I rate him and think he'd be a good signing at that price. I think he's a good alternative to the other wingers we've been linked with this summer. Still only 25 and he'll have better players around him than at Burnley

What do you think?

[Sclox]

Decent price, 25 years old and we need a winger. Think he can also slot in as full back so a good addition.

I keep reminding myself where we were this time last year. Still early days in our development.

[Alberts__Lob]

Just for comparison, last season in the Prem:

Maxwell Cornet: 9 goals and 1 assist

Dwight McNeil: 0 goals and 1 assist

and Everton just paid £20 million for him

I keep reminding myself where we were this time last year. Still early days in our development.

That's my thinking too, we don't need to build a team of world beaters this window. Plus we can afford to make the odd mistake in the transfer market but i don't think Cornet would be a mistake, he's a decent player

[toptoon]

I wouldn’t be disappointed if he signed so long as we get the much needed striker as well.

[Zippity]

I think he'd be an upgrade on Frasier and definitely on Murphy so, aye, I'd be happy enough.

[tinostongue]

Definitely, from what I seen last season.he’s got an end product, which Murphy and Fraser are lacking, although I like Fraser.

[Zippity]

I mean, I like them both-hard workers, etc, and Murphy is one of us.....but Frasier is on the downwards slope of his career and Murphy never really had much of a slope to start with, sadly.

[Alberts__Lob]

Bruno played with Cornet at Lyon so maybe he's put in a good word for his former team mate too

[Zippity]

if we do get him, he can join our new fanzone with the others. He can sell a range of stuff from milk and eggs and tins of beans to shoelaces and magazines. You know, like any other cornet shop.


It's ok, I'll see myself out...
