Robert Snodgrass - loaned for 17-18 season

[TheTimVilla]

He’s already been really praiseworthy of Pellegrini.  I doubt he will be leaving them this summer.

Haven’t they signed two right wingers this summer? Anderson and someone.

Getting Snoddy back makes us stronger. As would getting Woodburn. One of our biggest failings last season was over reliance on the front 3 of the attacking midfield in the final stretch, they were knackered. Getting Green fit, Adomah, Grealish, Woodburn and Snoddy all in and around it to keep people fresh is the perfect solution. Just need a decent target man to lead the line. Abel Hernandez with that lot in behind would score a hatful.

I'm hoping Davis can continue his development as the target man role.

[Matt Collins]

Me too. But I've a nagging feeling Davis might see a fall as steep as his rise

Why? Bruce has made it pretty clear he’s been struggling with a bad groin injury for some time which explains why he’s not been around the squad

[olaftab]

He was ok but it took him half a season to get going and we don’t want that.

[darren woolley]

I really hope we can get Snoddy back would love to bring him back.

I think that was because he'd hardly played for West Ham and didn't have much of a pre-season with them either.

[Risso]

He was excellent in the middle half of the season, after taking a while to get up to speed, then running out of energy for the last few games.

Isn't that why you have a squad? so you can rotate players? Or am I missing something.

[Dazvillain]

Hammers mate said he’s played the most mins for them above anyone else in pre season.... does that mean he’s put in shop window for transfer or having seen last years performances have they got their own plans for him I wonder ?

Not if you are Steve Bruce...

Or MON. That was the biggest thing for him too, never rotated and the team died in March.

Used correctly and sparingly I cannot see a single downside to Robert Snodgrass being an Aston Villa player this season.

The problem is that on his wages, you would need him to play most of the games.  Otherwise he would be an expensive luxury.
