What a fall from grace he’s had … didn’t play for us sjc started two whole PL games for a team as crap as Southampton.
That bad injury must have ruined him.

How much could we have got him for in the Summer?

Think we went to 50,then he signed a new contract,and he’s been starting more so we’ll struggle to get him for less than 65-70 I reckon ?

Less than zero chance of him signing. Usual "we tried" b

ks from sully. Move on & waste time on someone else.

Or just don't bother as we know the likely outcome.

Maxwell Cornet off on loan to Genoa.

The only notable thing about Cornet was his Lambo Huracan (camo wrapped), which puts him in a small club of Lambo driving WH players (SUV's ignored (unless LM002)).

I’m sure it won’t be long before they’re above us but even so…

I had high hopes for him but the few games he played he demonstrated a complete lack of understanding of the offside rule.

Decent article here other than the mention of Moysie being a defensive mastermind.

I think that everything in there is what we have known for years but it's nice to see it being acknowledged and put out to a wider audience.

I could be wrong, but didn't his agent throw an 8 figure number in for his fee right at the end of the process that scuppered it?

A good read but yes sums up the medias complete misunderstanding of the Moyes issues.

When he ran down his contract he had left a legacy of an ageing team, with no defensive cohesion at all. Far flung from the team that won the CL. Moyes took the good team he created and let it go, and we are left with managers trying to pick up the pieces.

Thank you Moyes for winning the trophy, but you have a lot to answer for in terms of allowing the team to rot after that.

Looks like we’re signing a Dutch midfielder who I’ve never heard of from a Belgium club I’ve never of for 10 mil plus add-ons.
