After Chris Wood refused to play against Sunderland as his head wasn’t in the right place given all the interest from Burnley, the love for him amongst Leeds fans very quickly turned into hate. He seemed to go from the Championship’s best to absolutely dire as far as the Leeds fans were concerned. They wanted nothing more to do with him.
Of course, all meant Leeds United twitter went into absolute meltdown as Burnley announced the signing earlier this afternoon. Here’s how the wonderful world of Twitter reacted to the announcement.

Thanks for the £15 millions plus for Wood. The snake won’t get anywhere near the 30 goals he scored last season. Leicester sold him to us!!!
