A few months back he looked like he was slowly starting to build some form. But ever since that rib thing he's been absolute garbage. Wondering if he ever really got over it. Clutching at straws I'm sure. I am guessing he is still injured, didn't help matters than he had a couple of injections in his rib to play against Wednesday( IIRC) and Bruce thanked him by dragging him off after half hour and humiliating him. Anyways, he is another one where the FA cup week couldn't come soon enough. Has been well off the pace recently which is unlike him. Say what you want about his performances, he has always put a shift in up until the last few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 He was poor for large spells today, but very good for the goal. He's keeping up with his 1 in 5 ratio of delivering something for us. Bottom line is that he needs to do more, lets hope this kicks off a good run for him.

Farlz Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 No idea why but I just really like Snodgrass, hasn't been great over the last month but hopefully can regain some form going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I am still not a fan. Good on him for scoring a few goals and assists.. hes doing better than most.. but i dont think he should be an automatic starter. Doesnt look fit enough to me. Would like to see him more centrally too. Maybe when Green returns? Think hes a tidy player.. but out wide he just doesnt have the pace or the consistency in crossing the ball. Should never be our first choice set piece taker. Especially on free kicks. Hourihane has deserved to have first go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 This whole lacking in experience thing that has haunted us for a few years - well he's kind of the antidote for me. Hardly the best thing I could say about him but he buys fouls when we're under the cosh and that sort of thing. Runs the clock down a bit, takes the sting out of situations. We have genuinely lacked someone like that. It endears him to me I have to say. Canny player (ok, ok maybe after yesterday it's canny cross!).

Junxs Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Hard to believe just a year ago he was one of the top scorers in the premier league, which earned him a big money move to WHU. I spent the whole summer banging on about how we should try to get him so was absolutely delighted when we did, he's done ok.. but i was expecting a lot more.. maybe its down to tactics. Pretty much every player in the team has played better at other clubs before joining us but I'm not going to go off topic as tempting as what the next line would lead to.

villa82 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 One of our best players so far this season. The only player we have that use the inside of his head, make a clecver pass and score a goal. Not fit enogh for the PL. But he could end up in the all stars team, if we get promotion.

I think he's been terrible for most of the season and the goal does not paper over those cracks for me. I cannot see whatever positives others seem to see in him. And he should never ever be allowed to take another free kick ever again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some others have played ok too, but missed games (Terry, Grealish). Snodgrass have not been great, and I do not want him in the PL, if we get there. Not many players I trust in the PL.

markavfc40 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 He has been very hit and miss since he got here, more hit than miss the last month. I'd have personally dropped him yesterday which shows what I know as he played quite well and obviously got the goal. He needs to be more consistent in his performances but there is no doubt when on top of his game he is a very good player at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it is of no surprise that it's about the time Villa has struggled as a whole. Adomah's been just as bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because that doesn't make up for 60 others being squandered which might have resulted in 10 ending up on someone's head to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Expect more from him but would have rather have in the team than not. Also thinks he links up well with Elmo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted January 1, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 1, 2018 Adomah, Grealish, Snodgrass is something to build our attack from. Keep them playing at the same time is our best chance. I also agree with your point regarding Elmo, Vive_La_Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I like Snodgrass. He's another player though that is wasted due to Bruce's hit and hope style of football. If we had a manager that wanted to get the team to play passing football he would be excellent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
