Would take him out for Wednesday.

Think I would be looking at that as well.  If Kodjia is injured though, that might scupper that plan, as I would have moved him out to the left and shifted Adomah to the right.

I'm not convinced that Elmo+Snodgrass = One useful player

Playing Snodgrass and Adomah leaves us a midfielder short

Jedinak will obviously start after his good cameo today.

I can see Onomah being taken out given he struggled today but PNE are a team who press and have great workrate so we need some legs in the middle.

Davis will start aswell. Jedinak and Davis in for Snodgrass and Kodjia.

IMO Snoddy needs to do lot more. He is capable of owning this league but so far he has been rather underwhelming.

Another good game. Love his determination and just how much he wants to play and win.

Is he a loan with an option to buy I wonder?

Set up the first, just a shame he didn't take his chance and get on the scoresheet himself when he was through. I agree another good game and his attitude is excellent.

Almost certain an option to buy at the end of the season

Excellent. If I was West Ham I would be regretting shipping him out on loan right about now.

We have midfielders that aren’t outstanding but work really hard all game. They defend and they try and create and score. It’s made a massive difference for us this season where our very best forward has been injured pretty much throughout.

What I’ve enjoyed about Snodgrass is that he’s a grafter and he encourages others. A bit like Terry having that experience even when we don’t play well is absolutely invaluable.

Perhaps things will be different with their change of manager.

Agreed. Without wanting to get too wanky he also has that "fire" you know? He gets in the faces of opposition players, tries to fire up the villa fans, loves to wind up opposition fans (QPR he thrived on the abuse), is clearly and obviously pissed off beyond all recognition when he is subbed (even if injured). Most of all he just bloody well LOVES playing football and it shows.

I think he's been better in the last 3-4 games.  I was very disappointed with him for the first month.

He’d not played much for a good while though, had he?
