Ikon Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 To me it doesn’t even look like Wood is trying anymore. It’s that bad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, his attacking threat per game must be extremely low. His xG might be so low the scale can't recognise it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Surely the only reason we've rejected anything for Wood is due to limited time left to get another striker in as well as if we fail to get another striker we'd be only left with Isak as the only striker at the club that can be relied on to actually get on the pitch more than 25 times a season. Wilson can't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson can't. I think someone above probably nailed it with the wages thing. He'll be on about £50-60k here, can't see a Championship club wanting to pay more than £15-20k of that.
