At this level if you are creating chances for a fox in the box type - Wyke is as good as you are hoing to get.
But unfortunately we arent producing many chances now and putting balls in the box, so striker role has become pretty just battling centre halves outside the box and that's never been Wykes strength.
I don't think Maloney ever really fancied Wyke, so no suprise he's been allowed out if someone agreed to take on his large wages.
Like with Langs departure I feel a massive sense of frustration - not because we are letting a player in good form go, but because we had players capable of so much and we hardly got anything out of them this season compared to what we should.
At this level if you keep getting crosses in the box Wyke should worth 20 odd goals, and it looked like he'd easy do that as he raced to 5 goals in the first 4 games and was player of the month for L1. But then we stopped creating chances for him and we've pretty much got nothing out of him since.
It's been such a massive waste and missed opportunity for us. But he wasn't getting anything out of working under Maloney, Maloney wasn't getting anything out of him and the club wasn't getting any value for money. So it became in everyone's best interests he moves on.
I don't think we are doing well at getting the best out of the players we have and that is a concern I have in general going forward.
