A couple of seasons ago, when Wood was kicking arse for Burnley, it was not uncommon to see England fans criticiising Southgate for not calling up Chris Wood.
Not the best informed fans obviously. But quite a good giggle.
Nothing like Franz Beckenbauer, the actual coach of West Germany at the time, saying that Wynton rufer would be in his team if he was German

Living in the UK and watching Chris' career blossom I've not heard one Englishman say that and I work with football mad people from all over the UK, Ireland and the continent. Those who know their football know Chris isn't English (but a British national).
Aside from that, having run into Chris and his family in the UK, Austria, Russia, Qatar and Eastern Europe, they are all lovely people and I reckon Chris is the proudest AW we've ever had. Much more so then Hay and Nelsen.
