Bilic: Hammers star Snodgrass has the lot

Robert Snodgrass is yet to score for West Ham United but boss Slaven Bilic has hailed the midfielder’s impact since arriving in east London in January.

The Scotland international signed for the Hammers from Hull City, who he is set to face this weekend, for £10.2m after a fine first half of the campaign – which saw him score 12 times.

Snodgrass boasts a wand of a left foot but he is yet to get off the mark in Hammers colours however, Bilic is not concerned and only has good things to say about the 28-year-old.

“He started really well for us and is a player that we wanted,” Bilic confirmed.

“He has got everything, a great left foot, not only for set-pieces but in general. He’s a creative player and the amount of running he does is very good.

“He runs a lot at high intensity, which is the most important one.

“Like any other player, he also needs time to adjust to the new players and the new environment. I am happy with Snoddy and he’s going to be a big asset for us.

“He is still looking for his first goal for us, but hopefully he’s going to do it on Saturday. It wouldn’t be the first time for a player who goes back and plays his first game against his old club.

“His game is not about scoring goals, though, he’s more about creating chances.”
