I take the mickey out of him a lot and me and Freddie always have a laugh and a joke but he’s a credit to himself. Since he has come in he has been unbelievable. Whether that’s Mo Salah wanting to stay out and take penalties an hour after training – Woody is the one that is out there – or whether it’s running after the game as well. I’ve dragged him out after PSG and he got through it with the lads and he is always there for everyone and always there to support. These people in a club like this are so important. Maybe they don’t always get the credit they deserve and get the limelight or things like that, but when he walked back in the changing room he got a nice reception.
He’s a well-loved player in our changing room, he has a great personality and he’s fitted in so well. It took him a couple of weeks to actually talk to any of us – I think he was a bit nervous! But once he settled down, he has been a credit to himself. I think he showed his quality as well. Forget about the personality but I think he showed his qualities, his composure on the ball and the little header and pass out to me. He’s got a massive amount of quality, but we are very lucky to have good goalkeepers. Ali [Alisson Becker] is the best in the world so hopefully he is back soon and hopefully Giorgi [Mamardashvili]‘s isn’t too bad, but if these two are out then we all fully believe Woody is the one to step up and I think he showed that today.
