Cornet is away for the next month for the African Nations cup which will not help Burnley. Interestingly, considering Wood is the striker, Wood seems more likely to assist Cornet than the other way around. As he wins headers from the long ball and Cornet runs onto them; it's actually how they won the freekick that lead to Cornet's goal.
Burnley has an old squad and clearly lack pace, so Cornet makes a difference there... Cornet is the only one who seems to have lots of energy and capable of something special amongst the Burnley team.
Burnley's midfield and crossing has been rubbish this season which isn't helping Wood who is looking increasingly out of confidence.
As mentioned above, the 2 matches against Watford are already shaping as crucial to staying up. I don't think they have announced the date yet for the rescheduled (due to Covid) match, let's hope it doesn't clash with the All Whites WC qualifiers or the club vs country thing will be more of an issue...

Think is no chance now Wood will be released by Dyche for any AWs games outside Jan and March FIFA windows.
