He only played 4 EPL games against the "big 6", and during those games Burnley only scored 2 goals. 

Wood scored one of them, in a 1-1 draw with Spurs. 

Burnley beat Chelsea 3-2, if Wood had been playing his chances of scoring in that match were probably high. I’m not sure what other big 6 games he missed but it must have been a fair few...you can’t score against them if you aren’t on the pitch. No one is saying he’s Salah, Kane, Aguero or Lukaku quality but he did out-perform many supposedly EPL quality strikers including Morata. 

I didnt mean it to sound like he had done poorly, 1 in 4 against them is ok, especially when your team only scored twice across the games
