He was finished by the end of the previous season. Ashley Barnes was injured that season and so Wood was looking a lot like he did for us when he was tasked to do more in the build up phase holding up the ball. He is so incredibly bad at it it's untrue. Once Barnes got injured Burnley were done. He was the real instrumental piece upfront to their whole approach.

Hope he does, otherwise forget the £15m, he'll end up back here once Forest realise he's shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 He is the definition of a panic buy, we lost a game to a league one side because we had no striker and right away went for the first striker we can get asap. the best thing i can say about him is that he was better than playing with no striker upfront, but honestly 4 goals in 35 games and a host of misses, i really think most strikers from this league all the way to league one could've done a similar or better job, hope we can recover some of the money we paid for him and he actually finds some form for Nottingham and put some of our rivals down.

STM Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Tell you what has struck me most, the fact that north east journos are nowhere near this story. Everything has come from the Forest end. Bodes well for any potential incomings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 1 hour ago, ponsaelius said: It's not so much getting a striker in. Having 3 out and out centre forwards is always a bit much in the era of 1 striker systems. Wood was redundant once we got Isak. only the timing of that signing and his injury has kept him around this long. A wide player or attacking midfielder can gives us more impetus/flexibility than having Wood on the bench. And ideally could be an emergency option upfront. I really hope this is the thinking. Indeed I agree, he won’t be replaced with an out and out striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 That's a great deal for us. Rid ourselves of a dreadful player and at most maybe only £10m down from it. Opens a spot up for a signing too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
