During his coverage of the Nottingham Forest vs Everton game for Sky Sports, Jamie Carragher commended Chris Wood for his outstanding performances this season. Wood, who initially joined Nottingham Forest on loan from Newcastle in January 2023, has made a significant impact at his new club, leading to a permanent move for £15 million. In his 38 games with Forest, Wood has scored 14 goals and provided 1 assist, a stark contrast from his 5 goals in 39 games at Newcastle. Particularly impressive is his tally of 12 league goals, which includes a hat-trick against his former club Newcastle. Carragher acknowledged Wood’s prowess, stating, “Chris Wood, he has been a revelation since he came here from Newcastle,” adding, “He found it tough at Newcastle, but he has been fantastic for Forest since he came in.” The former Liverpool defender turned pundit’s praise underscores Wood’s impact at Nottingham Forest, solidifying his reputation as a key player for the club. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest’s recent match against Everton sparked controversy as the team was denied three clear penalties, leading to an uproar on and off the pitch. Forest’s public statement following the game questioned the integrity of the officiating officials, resulting in investigations by both the FA and the Premier League.
