He seems a bit rubbish now, but that must be cos he's on decline (or in a bad patch). Double figures in the PL for Burnley the last 4 seasons isn't rubbish (and the year before that was 27 in the Championship).

 

He was poorer than my fairly low expectations, but the team he was part of did a great job, so I think he deserves some credit for that. Think it's already time to move on though, if we're pushing on can't see he's shown enough to even be a back-up. Watching the goal he scored against us for Leeds in the Championship  can't even really imagine that now.

 

I agree with you, it was a tongue in cheek comment to be fair. I was at that game viewing it from that angle too. Heartbreaking wasn't it as we wanted a nice clean win to end the season.

Interesting to read this on the been website - re team reviews of the season - in Burnley's review - 

 

Player whose time is up: Wout Weghorst. Turns out he wasn't a superior Chris Wood after all.

 

Hmm, and we think Woods is a square peg in a round hole.

If they want Wood back…

Football must be like the 3rd of 4th choice sport in new Zealand.  Rugby union and cricket will be above football.

Could have a role to play next season. If we're winning comfortably, bringing him on to protect Wilson, or a new signing, would be a sensible move. Getting rid means we need two new forwards which might push the budget too far. Dunno. Until I see signings I'm sticking with evolution, not revolution.

Not really, in a recent survey of men in New Zealand only 86 out of 2.4 million actually played football.

Must be a shit survey as when I was living there from 2017-2020 the Saturday Over 35s competition I played in just for North Shore and West Auckland was 5 divisions of at least 10 teams in each. The under 35s and over 40s leagues also had similar set ups for both Saturday and Sunday.

If we signed a top striker, and a young prospect like Ekitike, he'd be like fourth choice. 

 

He's definitely watching football, I think it would be sensible for Burnley to take him back on loan or, have asked for a buy back.

Don't see the point in keeping him if he blatantly isn't good enough. Would rather give a kid a chance as third choice striker or stick Joelinton up front.

Hopefully we will sign a winger who can cover up front too.

I'd rather shit in my hands and clap than see us play a midfielder or winger up front. We need to replace Wood with a proper 9. As it stands, only Wilson is a 9 who is able to play at PL level. We need to buy two more 9s as our top priority.

Not a fan of Guardiola’s tactics then?
