Debut 4 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 They've just signed Marko Arnautovi? though, like-for-like replacement.Never felt Snodgrass had the pace a club like WHU require. Quite surprised they signed him in the first place. Arnautovic has that and the ability Snodgrass doesn't. He's a tidy player, but not top half EPL quality which WHU hope to achieve and more.

1874robbo Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 It depends on how he is. His last few appearances for Scotland were that of a near 30yr old winger who's body isn't letting him do what it used to. He looked slow and generally not up to his usual standard. West Ham it was much the same and now they're saying he is free to go. He probably will go into the championship but I don't think he's got much more time left at that level. In Scotland he could do some real damage though. Walker doesn't need the pace to do it and neither would he. Making a fud of yourself here bud.

Glad to see I invoked such a mature response. Aye cause ?500,000 would be well within our budget. Don't mock the clubs 'ambition' because we won't show interest in an EPL player on ?60K per week. A major coup for Hearts was signing Lafferty. That, for me, shows the ambition of the club considering where we are right now. Stupid comments get stupid responses.

Lucille's Thirsty Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I'm not so sure. With big fees come big salaries. We won't ever go down the ?10k per week route again imo. I think we'll stick to paying smaller fees and picking up bargains like the players you mention tbh. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You're last sentence there is something I would settle for if we can pick up players of the Goncalves and Souttar ilk, it's good business that money for those players. I agree 10k is far too much maybe capped at about 5k or 6k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucille's Thirsty Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 The talk of Snodgrass is utter nonsensical for a club like ours. We cannot and will not shop in that type of market as we couldn't attract a player from PL and wages. Snodgrass will come back to Scotland to retire that all.

Mikey1874 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I suspect he hasn't yet got fed up making loads of money. Do you honestly think he will come back to Scotland for 200k a year when he could make that in a month at Middlesboro for example? Aside from it not happening anyway, Snodgrass still wants to play for Scotland. English Championship at minimum is the place for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
