      To be fair, Woodgate was a sensible bet at the time for a team that needed defenders. Flopped horrendously, though

        Didn’t he score an own goal and get sent off on his debut? Or did I misremember that?

          Yeah then I’m sure he came back for a couple games and got a horrible injury, absolutely horrendous start.

      IIRC when Leeds signed Rio Ferdinand there was a lot of fans, pundits, press that thought Woodgate was the better defender for much of their partnership. When Woodgate was in top form he was a very classy CB. Unfortunately the injuries ruined him.
