    Robert Snodgrass wanted by Aston Villa, QPR, Hull and West Ham... but Norwich's £6m valuation could prove restrictive.

    The Premier League foursome are battling it out for the Norwich man.

    But the Carrow Road club's £6m valuation could put off his suitors.

    Aston Villa, QPR, Hull and West Ham are keen on Robert Snodgrass but Norwich want £6million.
    The 26-year-old has a year left on contract but Norwich do not want to lose the Scotland international - hence the valuation.

    He'd be good but not at that price. Especially as he only has 12 months on his contract.

    That's what I thought. I didn't realise he was only 26. It seems like he's been around for ages. I wonder what Norwich paid for him?

    How many goals did he get last season?

    I would imagine he will join his old boss at Villa

    7 in 33 appearances.

    I've since discovered that he moved for an undisclosed fee.

    I think it was for about £2.5 million. He has been quite an important player for us, and certainly one of our best last season. I would say perhaps £5 million is a little more realistic.

    I've always rated him and felt he was the type of player we should have gone for when we were last promoted. He'd be a useful and reliable player who will score his fair share and he knows how to take a free kick. However if Norwich want to piss him off by pricing him out of the market then so be it. I think we should have learned by now that players who come at a price, do the rounds from one relegated club to another. They are simply not worth the gamble. As journeymen go, he's one of the best but I don't think many will want a team made up of players with those credentials.

    Would we want him when we have Matty Phillips? Not to mention Petrasso.
    I would want to spend the money elsewhere.

    Think I disagree with the consensus. I'd stump up - he'd be my top transfer target.

    Not with 12 months left on his contract, he can sign for celtic or any other foreign club for free in january.

    Its not just a question of that, are norwich willing to write off £3m just to have him for the next 12 months?

    Thats the sort of thing wed do. Norwich should get what they can for him and replace him with someone with a longer contract if he doesnt want to stay.

    Snodgrass is a decent player but not one youd waste lots of money on just to get him now. Id be quite happy to wait.
