Coach worried ahead of Brighton clash without Chris Wood
Chris Wood is set to miss the upcoming match against Brighton & Hove Albion, and his absence has clearly unsettled the coaching staff.
The coach admitted he is concerned about the team’s chances, saying Wood’s physical presence, aerial threat, and ability to hold up play are difficult to replace. According to him, the striker’s leadership on the pitch and knack for crucial goals make a major difference in tight games.
Without Wood leading the line, the team is expected to adjust tactically, possibly relying more on pace and midfield support rather than direct attacking play. Still, the coach confessed he is not confident about securing a win, describing Brighton as a well-organized noside that punishes defensive mistakes.

Fans will now be watching closely to see how the squad adapts and whether another forward can step up in Wood’s absence.
