    Yeold,

    Lets sub Boro for Hull instead. Now we're only 4 points down so not so bad.
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Comparisons between last year and this year/equivalent fixtures are not the issue for me. The only thing that matters is 3 games, 3 losses, 10 goals shipped. That represents a pretty dismal situation, one which needs rectifying urgently.

    How many points were you expecting barracks?

    Not very complimentary of Slav
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    And not very honest either.

    We all saw him play a lot on the right, and pretty much all thought he was rubbish there.

    A wide right player who'd sooner pass off to a young full back than take on his player or make the cross?

    No loss whatsoever.
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    It definitely isn't complimentary and certainly not totally honest but it doesn't come as a surprise to most of us as it just reinforces the view that Slav doesn't really know what he's doing.
    There's been a mountain of posts regarding players being played out of position and his tactical naivety.

    "Every time I played I was on the left. I don't know why he did it"

    At West Ham he played on the left 5 times, on the right 7 times, in the hole twice and once as striker.

    "I have played on the right or behind the striker at Hull City all season'." "But I'd only filled in on the left on a couple of occasions"

    Partly true, at Hull last season he played either on the right and or in the hole but the previous season he played 8 times on the left.

    It seems Mr Snodgrass is suffering a bout of selective amnesia. Nurse!!!!!

    Snodgrass' debut v Citeh:

    Game 1

    Was it Slav's fault he kept giving the ball to Byram over and over rather than cross the ball or do something himself, too?

    Wouldn't pay the slightest big of attention to him

    As mentioned earlier played equally on the left as the right and behind/as a striker and he was awful in every single game regardless

    He dont have the pace or the quality to make an impact.....let's be honest his hull form was his best in a 10 year career and previously he's never really been anything more than a championship standard player
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    Even more glad he's gone now.
  • Pearces_Left_FootPearces_Left_Foot
    Makes you wonder why we signed him in the first place, glad he has gone not glad we wasted 10 mill and 60k a week in wages on him ;angry

    WHU-Champo

    "He dont have the pace or the quality to make an impact.....let's be honest his hull form was his best in a 10 year career and previously he's never really been anything more than a championship standard player"

    Who, then, recommended we buy him and for £10m at that? ;hmm
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    NE

    Jan window is always a sellers market. We needed an experienced body, and if he could have reproduced his Hull form would have done for the 2nd half of the season.
  • NEoldironNEoldiron
    Grey, yeah I realise that, but do we know whose choice he was?
  • PrestonHammerPrestonHammer
    I can say for definite, it wasn't me.
  • tomkinsworldclasstomkinsworldclass
    Really disappointing by Snodgrass to go public, especially as he is still technically a WHU Player.
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    Agreed. Given that he has been very professional up until now.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Except in a footballing sense where has been very amateur.
  • tomkinsworldclasstomkinsworldclass
    Wonder whether Bilic will fire back or play it diplomatically? Kinda hope he savages Snodgrass after his comments. ;lol
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    I'd rather he said nothing at all and just focussed on the (considerable) job in hand
  • Slaven_Cups_His_BeardSlaven_Cups_His_Beard
    So, is this turning into the same sort of situation as BFS had?

    Owners won't sack, but won't invest either? Little bit worried about spending funds when the guy won't be with us long term?

    Or is everything just fine and I'm being a bit paranoid ;wahoo
  • HuttonhammerHuttonhammer
    How can Bilic fire back at anybody . Snodgrass may have got some facts wrong but basically he is saying that Bilic doesn't know what he's doing and looking at how the current team is playing the facts back Snodgrass up.
    Snodgrass suffered the same issue that nearly all players we sign have . After a while (some take longer than others) Players lose their form , are out injured all the time or just want to go elsewhere. The club is a joke at the moment on and off the pitch.
    As mentioned before there seems to be a nasty undercurrent within the club that has been there for a while and nobody seems to know how to sort it out.
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    Personally I think the club is fine.

    The nasty undercurrent is among some of the fans, imo.
