What we need, I think, are natural poachers like Wood and Bashley. They get into the box anticipating something coming in. Wood got offside a lot because he was on the shoulder of the defenders, challenging them.

So many times against Swansea no one seemed to be anticipating the ball coming in. Players were on their heels and waiting. There was one good ball that Brownhill needed to throw himself at and make any connection. That was Chris Iwelumo’s comment. Danny Ings would have been sniffing around for that type of ball.

A natural like a Wood or Bashley would have thrown themselves at the ball to make any contact.

There must be that type of player available in the leagues. They don’t have to be a Mo Salah or a Messi.
