Agreed Dave. He's had a pretty hard job being on his own up front for most of his time at Leeds. He gets a lot of unfair criticism in my opinion.

Without his goals (another yesterday) we would be bottom, simple. We have no-one else in the team / squad that is likely to even get near double figures - he is there already (12 so far and even the pens have to be put away) ON top of this he holds the ball up well and works his socks off. Yes he can be infuriating and frustrating and does not always 'punch his weight' but without him in the team we would be nowhere near the top 6.Rich W's comparison to Chapman is valid - has lots of flaws in his game and never really looks like a footballer (though to be fair Wood has scored some crackers, something Lee never did - eg overhead kick and his screamer at Derby last season) but does what he is paid to do - score goals !

I, up front Wood is so limited that unless you play to his 'strengths' then we're often a man down, so irrelevant is he! Anyway, we won, 3 points and all that, but having watched it you can see a real tupping coming. That probably means we'll beat Liverpool - hmmmm?
