Mattoon Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I think this is a decent bit of business, Wood is a squad player and price is high because it was the quickest way to get someone in before Watford, with a release clause we're looking at hours rather than days to complete the transfer meaning he can slot straight in at the weekend, even if its just as a sub because he's carrying a knock. Watford is the epitome of a 6 pointer and he's probably our best chance at getting something out of it. It's a bit of an underwhelming signing but functional. Fingers crossed he makes it and he makes the difference he's being brought in for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 He's the type of striker we are missing even if he is not a big name, and offers a physical presence up front. There were times when Wilson is isolated by himself. Signing him gives us options and different game plans for opponents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have Barnes and Vydra out with injury and covid respectively + Cornet at AFCON. So the one fit striker they had we've gone and knicked and they play Leicester + Watford within 3 days next week.

jackyboy Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 A good signing on all fronts, apart from maybe the price. A real handful up front and I can see him scoring a few goals. He could also play alongside Wilson with Fraser on the right and ASM on the left Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully doesn’t work against us and Watford hammer them. 0-0 in that game with a few injuries and red cards would have me delighted. Of course, if we win on Saturday.

Yeah, watching his 50 goals for Burnley there are some really good finishes in there, and surprisingly few tap-in / headed goals (not sure whether that's a good or bad thing ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

deejeck Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Forget the fee - January window is always batshit and I'm just thankful that we've been able to get a much needed striker through the door without any fucking about, and even at this massively over-inflated price it could still be money very well spent. Presumably Howe thinks he can do something with him which is good enough for me. It's also a massive fuck you to all those PL teams who collectively said that they wouldn't trade with us this window in order to try and push us through the trap door. How's that looking now, ya devious spiteful cunts?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Yeh, nominally at least you'd say that this new version of the club has more long-term ambition than Burnley do. Under Ashley it would have been a sideways step. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
