Dave J Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 It's not just his ability - it's his experience, his professionalism , his will to win, the guy is a superb professional imo 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimcohen Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Cracking player and season, but I am surprised people thought he contributed that well defensively on sat, i thought he gave up on chasing Adoma a few times. Didn't look like he fancied the chase. If it wasn't for Hutton he would have been very exposed in that. Still, that's not his main asset and overall he has been great.

tinker Posted May 14, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted May 14, 2018 Could be a Milner MK2, play him in the middle ? if only he was younger . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he sensibly realised, after being totally bamboozled the first 4 times he tried, that he was wasting his time with Traore. He does look though, to me, that he is another running on fresh air. Him and Albert (more so) look like the huge effort they put in - Snodgrass work rate and mental approach across this time was phenomenal in my view - between October/November and early April, to get us back in real contention, has used up all the fuel in the tank. Hopefully - especially in Snodders case - theres just enough in reserve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made more tackles than anyone else (10) in the entire game. I'm surprised anyone thinks he didn't do well defensively! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pulled out of a couple of challenges, with Hutton covering behind, after he'd been booked. I think of all the players in the squad the notion of 'not fancying the chase' couldn't be further from the truth when it comes to Snodgrass, he runs himself into the ground every game. Imagine if he'd picked up a second yellow for tripping up Traore unnecessarily! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One For The Road Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Having met him at the awards night and had a bit of banter with him, it's clear he is the joker of the pack. Someone like that, whilst still remaining professional, is crucial for the mood around the camp. Really like Snoddy and hope he stays another season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 You can tell he loves it here. Got to be one of the most hard-working players in the squad. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted May 15, 2018 Moderator Share Posted May 15, 2018 A growly, chasey, determined Scotsman with a decent cross on him and a willingness to tackle anything. What's not to like? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted May 15, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted May 15, 2018 My MOTM today, did all the tackling harrying and chasing today and was better going forward than he has recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) Well deserved rest now, he looked dead on his feet after 20 mins today but kept chasing and kept putting in the tackles. Edited May 15, 2018 by a m ole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMelvillan Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 he looks punctured after the warm up. I always think he is on his last legs and couldnt have another sprint in him but he just gets up and does it again. Its a quality that Gazza had also and I think it lulls opposition into a a false set of security when they see Snoddy bent over and blowing out his **** like a 60 year old athsmatic (sp?). flippin love the guy and I think when the other players see creative attacking guys like him chasing back and crunching into tackles it really sets the tone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I love his passion! Absolutely loves it here. We have to get him permanently in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, you can see the difference with him and Terry providing great togetherness between the squad, and the squad connection with the fans. For too long there has been massive divides in both. I remember him coming on against Brentford for his debut, and geeing up the crowd as the atmosphere was a bit tense. You could see he wasn’t fully fit, but I said to my Dad at the time he would be an important player this season. Hats off to Steve Bruce for bringing in quality characters to the squad to fix that bad divide, it really feels like the atmosphere around the place has done a 180 turn from where we were 18 months ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
