Robert Snodgrass is hopeful of making a quick return from injury, to boost West Ham squad.
West Ham United received a major boost ahead of their Premier League encounter against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, October 20th, as their newly appreciated winger Robert Snodgrass seems hopeful of making it to the final squad, despite having had to pull out from the Scotland squad because of an injury.

The International break is usually accompanied by a reeking of fetid rumours about players and their clubs, there 'leaks' are invariably driven by agents keen to see some action for their clients, because of course action results in the agent getting their hands on even more commision. Not all agents are devisive and some perform very well for their clients, but it is difficult to give much creedance to many of the comments attributed to players as that have actually been 'sourced' via quotes from agents rather than from the players themselves.

Declan Rice is not the only West Ham United player who is subject to an International 'tug of war', Rice is entitled to play for either The Republic of Ireland or England, his fellow young defender, Issa Diop, is entitled to play for France, Senegal or Morocco! Diop was born in France to a Moroccan mother and Senegalese father and has played for France at youth and U-21 level, he also scored France's final goal as they beat Italy 4-0 to win the 2016 European Under-19 Championship.
