relámpago blanco Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I really don't see the issue with Wood, has scored double figures in the premier league 4 seasons in a row in a BURNLEY team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 £20m, dear lord. Oh well, if it saves us from relegation, fuck it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAK Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Relatively happy with this, we need a striker immediately and everyone knows it and thinks they’ve got us over a barrel. He’s got an OK scoring record, weakens a direct relegation rival, is available immediately for selection, let’s others play in there proper position, knows the league, buys us breathing space to negotiate with others during the rest of the window.

Numbers Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Scores goals in the prem, who cares if its £20m we've got plenty of cash. Lets give the lad a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 This is a decent signing two-fold, as if we go down like I expect, he’ll be very handy in the Championship! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 It’s the timing that’s critical here. It’s a release clause, Burnley can’t say no, or delay it. We’re desperate for the next few games. It’s not an exciting bet but it’s one they need to make for now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 It’s underwhelming and it’s some fee for someone of his calibre but I’m not dead set against it. It’s better than relying on Dwight fucking Gayle and I’d like to hope it doesn’t mean we’re finished. If we can now carry on and add a younger, more pacy striker it could be a shrewd move in the short term Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Wood always seems up for a battle on the pitch (defending and attack), he always seemed to score against us, weakens them (even if he's not in form) and hopefully he bangs in 5+ goals before Wilson comes back and earns us 3 points against teams we should beat. Underwhelmed but clearly we're in a stage of desperation and we need bodies in before Watford and need someone with presence who can actually keep this team within a shape as a focal point. Good signing, fee is wild, but could not give a single fuck what we pay for any player anymore. Big picture thinking must prevail ... do whatever it takes this season to stay up.

TRon Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Quite impressed he wants to come tbh, he'll probably have a 6 month career here, but it could be a glorious David Kelly sort of one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Just now, Optimistic Nut said: Guess £20m for someone who gets double-figures a season (up to this season) is what you’d expect? You sound like you need some positive re-enforcement and comforting words. No sir. None of that for you. If ever I need to prolong bedroom efforts, nothing helps more than picturing Chris Woods scoring for Burnley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 IMO he is about 6m over his true value. 14m would be about right. We have paid 6m too much but that's nothing in the grand scheme of things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ9 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I have a feeling this signing is going to be a pleasant surprise. Brings a bit of physicality, shithousery to us and can score goals. Also helps that he has premier league experience, and is a threat from set pieces. I desperately want us to go for highly talented players from the European leagues, but that can wait. As sad as it is, Chris Wood improves this squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Surely £20m is the absolute going rate for any kind of capable premier league player? It’s not much money at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
