Latest Rumour [Robert Snodgrass]

[Pinkie Brown]

Ince is so overrated IMHO.
He's a good Championship player, but would struggle in the Premier League.

Yep. Highly overrated player who read too many stories about himself & ended up needing a size 18 in hats. Thought he was the worlds gift to football when everyone was scrambling for his signature a few years back. No doubt egged on by an agent, naturally. He was sussed by the more astute coaches, early doors. Bang average championship player. Nothing more.

The players we bring in are hardly ever rumoured so calling bullshit again.

 

[St Leonards Seagull]

I have family who are Hull supporters and they rated Snodgrass very highly.
They saw him as their only chance of avoiding relegation this season and saw relegation inevitable once he was sold.
I saw a couple of games he played for Hull this season and I thought he was very good.
Knowing albion though, I doubt very much the press know who their target are.

CH said the German would be used as #10, where would we play Snodgrass?

Do you not think we may need more than one player in each position to cover injuries, suspensions, illnesses?

 

[HastingsSeagull]

I wouldn't take Ince.

Snoddy would be a good option and if people want to argue over 5 million or 8 million it will be undisclosed anyway and could be 5 million plus add ons anyway. Who knows. I think he'd be the ideal player to back up all 3 attacking midfielders in a 4-2-3-1 assuming we used March, Gross, Knocky. Probably an upgrade over Baldock/Murphy/Skalak in those spots. Not huge granted but I think useful player. We can't make all 5-7 signings young, cheap, European prospects (though I hope at least half are).

The most Dickensian name in football.

 

[Blues Rock DJ]

No thanks, I would rather we play a German or French team.

nice little trip to Tolouse would be great !

7 goals in 20 games for Hull this season. As many as Raheem Sterling, more than De Bruyne, Sane, Rashford and numerous others.

6 in 2012/13, and 6 in 2013/14 for Norwich in the Premiership.

I'd be absolutely chuffed if we had a winger to chip in 6/7 goals from Midfield next season personally. I think a lot of people on here are being very unrealistic if they think we could sign someone for less than £8m who would likely get 6/7 goals from midfield.

 

[Marshy]

Anyone turning up there nose at Snodgrass is an idiot providing he fits in wages wise... which I doubt he does.
Ince is a billy big bollox thanks to his old man blowing smoke up his arse for too long, not what you need when it's likely we will be scrapping away at the bottom end of the division.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Ideal signing to improve the Squads quality - proven PL player and can change a game at this level.

Doubt his wages will be massive either.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Nowhere near good enough for us!

I personally think he could be a pretty good signing. Plenty of grit, and with that much needed Premier League experience. Chris Hughton has managed him before when at Norwich City, and was obviously impressed with him.

£8m may seem a high price, but if Tony Bloom is willing to pay it, who am l to argue?

 

[crookie]

Would be a good solid signing

Egged on by an agent, AND his father.

Snodgrss would have no resale value, his recent form after his injury in a reasonable side has been poor. I think we're better off mining Europe for talent, like Gross and Hunemeier before him. There's plenty of players who fancy a shot in the Prem and plenty of clubs that would not want to hold those players back. Retaining Sidwell gives the squad the Prem nous we need, it's now time to bring in some legs.

Erm?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

8 million for a player who turns 30 soon. Is this another one your of classics ?

We don't have to build a team for the next ten years. We need to survive one season and then build something better to see us secure for years.

Absolutely this. A brief precis of what I was trying, (and failing), to say.

What you get with Robert Snodgrass is someone who never stops running for 90 mins and takes a good free kick

We have those type players what we need is a game changer for when Knockhaert isnt prroducing it.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Erm?

West Ham finished 11th, they beat Spurs, they've got some good players - Reid, Font, Cresswell, Lanzini, Byram, Carroll and now Zabaleta. You do know he left Hull?.
