Finished a 2-0 win to Newcastle, and they are through to the League Cup semis.
Wilson came off at 78 mins, to be replaced by Isak. So seems the Woodsman is now ranked 3rd, re the no 9s.
But he ain't going anyway before season end. Wilson is injury prone, and Isak has only just returned to fitness after a long time out.
That shanked shoot on goal verus SW in the FA Cup, wasn't a great look. But Howe knows what Wood offers, and there will be occasions still this season when bringing him on, late on will happen. Then he is only an injury away from even starting in a game or two.
But I'm sure at season end it will all be reviewed, and if Newcastle make the UCL with it's nice extra windfall, they may release Christopher Wood. Hope not. Would love to see in UCL next season - even if just limited mins.
