    Just the way he plays mate, likes to square people up and beat them, play one two's and drift about the pitch from the left hand side.

    But yes, everything else not at all :smiley-laughing002:

    Reminds me of henke, same with Moussa, Hooper had his own style of clinical finishing, but these guys, whenever they score it just takes me back to the Mon days.

    I'd take that, not gonna lie I thought letting Stokes go was a mistake but Sinclair and Dembele have just blown me away.

    I think keep those two and bring in a real ball playing CM and GK and we'll be near untouchable in the league.

    He's done exactly as I expect, I knew he'd run amok up here as he's an EPL class player but he's probably someone who would prefer to play for us or in the Championship as he's a natural footballer who likes to attack and score goals etc which he finds easier at those levels. In the EPL his team don't see enough of the ball to keep him occupied.

    Next summer we should bring in Snodgrass for the right and we'll have two players who will score and create for fun as they are playing at levels well beneath them.

    Definitely wouldn't be against Snodgrass, assuming the price/wages are OK.

    I must admit, though, I do like how much pace Rodgers has added to the team and Snodgrass doesn't really give you that.

    I've been hugely impressed by his pace and style . His confidence is sky high with his run of scoring in the league . It really would be special , and add another aspect of interest to our league campaign , if he could continue the run of goals . I pray he can stay injury free .

    Snodgrass would be a fantastic replacement for Roberts. I'd love it if we signed him.

    Only thing that suprised me about him are his movement and positioning are top drawer, constantly drifting around in the centre back to the wing, into the striker position non stop. People can't get close to him anywhere, probably the best movement since Robbie Keane played for us.

    Clever player, a lot of selfless running off the ball and good movement.

    Has genuine class on the ball as well.

    Aye, he occupied and dragged about 3 players for most of the game yesterday. Gives the others so much space to work in and we actually * use that space now, love it.

    I like Snodgrass but he is too slow for the wing in our style now, IMO.

    I think he'd be class in the role Rogic is playing right now though.

    Sinclair is steadily becoming one of my favourite players. I didn't know much about him beforehand other than City paid 8 million for him and he never got much of a look in.

    He's been sensational though. He's skilful, his movement is top drawer, he works very hard and his decision making and finishing are great. Perfect winger for me, can't believe he never had more success in the Premier League, would have surely flourished at a club like Everton or Southampton at the very least.

    Speaking as someone who is also an Everton fan we already have plenty of players in that system, although there was a neccesity maybe for a false 9/No10 like player and the more I watch him for Hoops the more I think he flourishes in that role.

    A level above most of our players, different class. What a signing.

    He will go on to be a fantastic signing for us imo. He'll rip the * out of everyone domestically, and hopefully if we are still in Europe after Christmas he will show it on the bigger stage too.

    Genuine class, even in the Camp Nou against Barca.

    What a signing.
