It's reported as if he's lining up some potential wonder kid but it looks like they're taking it too literal. P. S. What's with the Birmingham Mail? I live in North Wales and have done for a long time and used them as a decent read for info via their site for a few years. Then went cold turkey for a while and ever since I've read things since it's just like a crappy Facebook footy page posting rumour after rumour, nicking from other crap sources. Then the mail gets quoted by the rubbish blogs etc. What an absolute joke it is. These people are paid reporters too, just spouting shite from the Internet. I'm jealous. It used to be a proper local newspaper but is now part of the mirror group who seem to have bought a lot of local papers and basically run them down to a minimum budget, stick them all on a homogeneous website package and fill them with the same rubbish occasionally tailored to local taste, and allow their probably one or two "journalists" to write a couple of stories. Basically its a proper decent local paper which has been destroyed because no one actually buys papers anymore but the "brand" has value to The Mirror Group.

Demitri_C Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 To be honest doesn't take much to be better than that fat oaf McCormack. I would say he has been our biggest flop in history. Congratulations toss McCormack on that title and good riddance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormack is on course to become one of, if not our worse ever signing from a financial standpoint IMO. I just hope we can flog him asap and recoup some of the money.

GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Nzogbia cost a lot more than £3m both in transfer fee and all the wages he just sat and collected! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure N'Zogbia cost more than McCormack will have done, in terms of transfer fees + wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine McCormack is on a pretty sweet deal, not the maybe £55k that NZogbia was, but still probably close to £40k Edited January 23, 2017 by sne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I'm still hoping whatever the issue is he can get it sorted, gets himself into training today and performs really well with Bruce deciding to give him another go after he has apologised. It's in our and his interest that he plays football. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope he comes good, we all know he has the ability to find the net at this level, hopefully he sorts whatever issues he has out and can fire us up the table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an example in his last season with Wigan nzogbia got 9 goals and 4 assists. Bolasie in his last season at palace got 5 goals and 3 assists and went for around the 25mil mark.
