No offence but when could Wood get higher than one inch off the pitch. I don't think he ever jumped when he was with us... Berardi could beat Wood in the air

A bit unfair. He jumped at least half a foot when he bagged a brace against Brighton at ER 9 years ago :)

If they're banking on a near 35-year-old Chris Wood, who had one good season at this level, to bang in the goals, they're in more trouble than I thought.

Don't think they are, bit unfair, he's probably been better than DCL in the prem with season tallies of 10, 10,14, 12, 14 and 20. DCL has hit double figures only 3 times.. never hit 20

His workrate & all-round game is nowhere near Calvert-Lewin's though.

Nice to watch a game without one's blood pressure rising.
