• Cornet back if we survive?

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:04 pm**

I know its very unlikely but would you take Cornet back if we stay up.

I would if he can stay fit.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:10 pm**

Don’t think so. He started brilliantly for us but then fizzled out massively with some disastrous misses (West Ham, Norwich) being a telling factor in our relegation. I know he has had injuries, but not shown anything at West Ham to change my mind.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:10 pm**

Won't happen. Doesn't fit our profile anymore. Far too injury prone and will want buckets of cash.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:12 pm**

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:12 pm**

Nope
Both parties have moved on

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:22 pm**

No thanks we’ve got a penalty taker now!

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:26 pm**

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:34 pm**

No. Liked him when here though.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:34 pm**

Much as I liked Cornet its a NO from.me ...

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:38 pm**

No

And he wouldn’t come back, he rightly believes he’s levels above Burnley, he just can’t stay fit

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:38 pm**

Never go back they say don’t they.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:38 pm**

No, I think Kompany would get a tune out of him but he's to injury prone.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:39 pm**

He scored some absolute belters though in a poor team.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:40 pm**

No, no and no again

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:42 pm**

No way , why does this thread suggestion keep coming back.. not good enough - not fit enough. Move on

And again, and again, absolutely NO

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 6:48 pm**

No thanks. He’d be injured half the time, probably cost £10m and would severely underwhelm. Let the memories stay where they are.

Shame isn’t it

I think long balls from Muric with Cornet in on goal would see a fair amount of goals though. His strikes were absolute thunder bolts.

We need the next guy like how he started.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 7:11 pm**

we'd probably get more game time out of David Eyres, I'd rather have him back anyway

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 7:14 pm**

Big Yes from me - at his best probably the most skilful player I’ve seen in a Burnley shirt

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 7:14 pm**

How often has he started for WHU in almost 2 seasons, and more significantly how many games has he been fit to play. From WHU point of view he has proved to be a dreadful signing

Was more than good enough, he's a supremely talented player.

We've both moved on though - can see him perhaps playing in Saudi or back to France post West Ham.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 9:00 pm**

Absolutely not, we have better wingers now.

Think back to when he first came to the club though, Kolo and Odobert are nowhere near as good , yet.

If he could sort his injury problems out and recapture that goalscoring form i would have him back.

I bet Mr President would like him back too.

I’d sooner have you back Mr Francis.

He was a novelty signing for us, foreign, attacking and a bit tricky- someone that gave us all hope. We have a list of those players now in the club.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 9:17 pm**

Yes. Hes a goalscorer. The opposite of Koleosho in a way, who puts in miles of running without any end product.

Cornet has that goalscorers instinct. Hed add a lot to the squad. Id definitely prefer him to Amdouni or Odobert in the number 10 role too.

I think he will come back and be better than before i think he owes us one.

Hes been shite since he left us.

I havent seen a player hit the ball better for Burnley.

Mr President will make it so.

Koleosho no end product? Bit harsh, still very very young, break through Prem season and was getting better and better prior to Wolves away. Put loads of decent balls in to the box. That lad is gonna be mustard. Hopefully comes through the same as before his injury.

If he could get fit his shot would be lethal from just outside the box, either left wing or no.10 just for the random factor.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 10:05 pm**

No but I'd take Danny Ings on loan in a heartbeat

Not being rude, but if you genuinely think that, how far back are you going?

Look back.. Ok
What's he done since?
You don't like signing players with potential, why then sign an injury prone player... Baffling

If he had end product hed be a world beater. Unfortunately he doesnt and i do wonder if thats something that can really be taught to some extent. The big thing i noticed was that a lot of the time he wasnt even getting many goalscoring opportunties which suggested to me that he didnt have that instinct. That did improve just before the injury and he started to get more chances which was promising.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 10:31 pm**

Errr NO

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 10:39 pm**

Who else do you want back to keep the medical team busy? Steven Defour. Jonathan Walters.

Wouldn't want him back, he wouldn't come back. Move on.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 10:51 pm**

Unfortunately no, the physio is busy enough without adding him to the equation.

I really enjoyed his spell at the club, but we don't need to be gambling on more players like that.

If we keep Umbro as out kit manufacturer then who knows.

Posted: **Mon Mar 18, 2024 11:45 pm**

He came to us to get in the PL shop window.

We got ours, he got his. End of story (and that business equilibrium suits me just fine!)

I forgot Willie Morgan as well

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2024 7:49 am**

Cornet proves the business model can work. He was very good for us, without ever playing a full 90 minutes if I remember rightly, and we made a good profit on him after one season. He's barely played a minute since. Why would we even consider going back?

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2024 7:55 am**

Nope that boat has sailed

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2024 8:22 am**

What role are we being asked to consider him coming back ?

If it is anything to do with playing for us then it is an easy no

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2024 8:40 am**

Too many injuries to be worth paying top dollar for

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2024 8:43 am**

The only former player that would make any sense, league dependent, is:

PL - Ings
FLC - Barnes

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2024 1:22 pm**

I would only have Cornet back next season if we are regularly playing on a sundae
