His play seems to have suffered since he started knocking about with Little Mix

I reckon Wood will manage at least two goals in our last nine games.
Well he got one today, so possible for him to hit double figures

In reality he really wasn’t that great though. The can’t trap a bags of cement, as mentioned above is correct. Play the ball just in front and he scores. Average Championship player.

I am firmly in the camp of 'now't wrong with his finishing' whilst he was here.
Me too, in fact I would say that whilst with us his

His finishing was excellent, so was his dynamic running with The ball and scaring the oppositions defence half to death. There’s no arguing ya out his iffy control, there again I don’t think he was at the end of quality balls from the way we played with them him. As others have already said, he had dynamic power and pace and was more than capable of finishing well. I expected and hoped he would go onto have a successful career after leaving us

Presumably in the year that he was Championship Player of the Year, everyone else was below average. ;)

Raw unpolished player who had more good moments for us than bad. His power and pace were genuine and certainly scored his share for us. He did/does have limitations as a footballer though, which are fine when the goal threat exists. Must be pretty painful viewing for Watford now it doesn’t exist so much.
