Not just tonight. Every match he has played in so far.

My Hull mate said he was poor last season and looked disinterested. Ditto for us. Snodgrass to play on the right?

Utter waste of space and time. I'd rather see Adomah playing any day of the week.

No doubt he will be undroppable as he is obviously a Bruce favourite.

His crossing tonight was a proper atrocity to mankind.

He stunk the house out tonight that's for sure.

We'll go nowhere whilst we continue to sign these players looking for one last pay cheque before retirement (Elomohamady, Whelan, Terry etc).

Just such an underwhelming option for me as the most attacking outlet on the right, he just strikes me as a right back playing out of position.

Bit like when we used to play De La Cruz or even Milner there, yes they'll run up and down the line but we actually need some quality and goal threat.

Snodgrass will fit that bill nicely.

Poor tonight I thought. Very ordinary crosses and often fails to cover his defender. I want so much more from him. He's more than capable of delivering.

As many have said, what does he bring except the flick on goal keeper punt, no pace to get past the defender and crap crossing.
He runs around a lot but that's it
Steve Bruce type of player all right.

Had a poor one tonight and should have made way for Adomah in the second half.

I'd say that right wing-back is his ideal position. He's not a right-back, nor a midfielder, nor a winger.

But nor should the team in a million years be arranged to accommodate a fairly incidental player at right wing-back and better players suffer because of it.
