I have a bit more sympathy for Bilic now.
Agree.

The only sympathy I have for Billc is having to work under Sullivan and Gold.

He's obviously a first class player, but he sometimes looks uninterested to me,.

He played really well tonight and kept his cool under provocation. Well done and long may it continue

The whip he has on his crosses is vicious. And good to see he and the rest of the team are now figuring out how best to get the ball into Hogan. A work in progress for sure, but that's why you pay big money for a striker. He's a tremendous asset when used correctly.

Not that long ago a lot of fans were calling for him to be dropped

He’s too good for this level. Excellent today

I have been a strong critic of his, but he now looks the player we hoped he would be, so I am glad to eat my words.
‘Nouse’ is very important at this stage and he, Terry, Chester and even Whelan  have loads of it which should keep us in good stead at this critical time of the season.

He also came over very, very well when interviewed on Sky after the Forest game.

Should be the first player we sign if we go up.

"Hit a cross like you'd hit a shot". So said a mate I played with years back. I've only seen the brief highlights of today, but it would appear Snodgrass appreciates this nugget of advice. His deliveries of late certainly have a punch about them.

I disagree on both, they've done well but I'm far from convinced that Johnstone is ready for that level and We need pace out wide in the premier league so the 6-7m we'd have to pay for Snodgrass wouldn't be the best use, despite him doing a great job for us in this league.  I think Adomah would need replacing as well.

I was one of them because he was predictable, lethargic and seemed disinterested. V Boro, Bristol City and today he was anything but. I like anything but - he should keep it up.
