Lewis DW 11 Posted January 9, 2017 If you were a PL club looking for a wide/attacking midfielder in the January Sales - why would you pay £10million+ for Robbie Brady over Robert Snodgrass...A fan or him or not, Snodgrass''s record this season is very impressive. Something like 7 goals and several assists in a poor, bare-bones Hull team. Snodgrass will probably go for £6-£8million in the end, which brings me to my initial question, why would you go for hot and cold Brady over RS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cantiaci Canary 556 Posted January 9, 2017 Brady is 5 years younger (ish) and can play LB too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted January 9, 2017 Because Snodgrass plays on the right and Brady on the left? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted January 9, 2017 Snodgrass was and is a more consistent performer. Brady needs offloading for the best price danger is what do we do with the cash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lewis DW 11 Posted January 9, 2017 Snodgrass can play on either side. If I am right, I believe he''s a left footer who opts for the right hand side. He used to cut in on his left all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Bates 9 Posted January 9, 2017 Brady is a lb lwb and lm. Snodgrass is just a rm. Plus Brady is a lot younger. Palace West ham etc.. see the added bonus of Brady playing anywhere on the left as a massive bonus.If you get the Brady playing for rep Ireland & 1st 6months when he joined us, then you have one hell of a talent. AN can''t get the best out of him for some reason, so we should sell to the highest bidder from the premier league and reinvest what we can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellowhammer 86 Posted January 9, 2017 Snodgrass is a class above Brady any day ,Brady has been poor this season along with several others . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don''t think he''s been at the top of his form this season, for whatever reason, but if both at their best, I would choose Brady. Brady has pace - Snoddy....err.....doesn''t.

hogesar 9,615 Posted January 9, 2017 Again LDC, that would have more credit if it wasn''t for the fact1) Brady''s tracking back this season has been terrible2) Snodgrass has more goals and assists in the prem this season than Brady has in the champs.3) You''re selecting out Snodgrass and blaming him individually for costing the team 2 points but you''ve constantly stressed how much of a team game football is and how the team is all in it together etc.You contradicting buffoon.

Yet again the misplaced ridicule but - 1 - Brady has more about him defensively than Snodgrass will ever have.2 - I''ll give you that, but then Brady isn''t an out and out attacker like Snodgrass makes himself - usually at the expense of others. 3 - Snodgrass let his team down at an important time in the match, end of. A team is eleven players, not ten plus Snodgrass, or for that matter ten plus Brady. In fact from what I''ve seen this season, I wouldn''t think we will miss Brady that much if he goes, but I''d still rather have him in the team than Snoddy.

True Grit 26 Posted January 10, 2017 Brady. Snodgrass is out for himself. Jez wouldn''t have him anyway - he''s all about he team and not interested in individuals trying to be big charlies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 2,218 Posted January 10, 2017 Snodgrass. Made me laugh when I saw that Brady was "on the radar" of Premier League clubs; when we''re defending you''d quite often need radar to locate him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 271 Posted January 10, 2017 Brady for me, almost exclusively down to age.No he hasnt been sparkling (like all bar the portuguese contingent) and his season has been underwhelming, but nor has he been anywhere near as awful as painted. Expectations not being met is perhaps the problem. Def one for us to sell this Jan though.As a bit of balance no city player has won more tackles than Brady and of those making more than 5 appearances only Mulumbu has won more per game. Pinto comes closest overall. All that tells us is that while he has appeared to lack commitment he has still appeared on the radar more than every other squad member.

Thirsty Lizard 3,155 Posted January 11, 2017 Although they''ve got different attributes I actually rate them roughly the same. (Except at taking free kicks of course). Really is about time you scored one for us Mr Brady! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
