Can't imagine there are any fullbacks in the league afraid of playing against Snodgrass. 80-90% of the time he does the same thing while doing it in such a slow way that he neuters the strikers. In addition Hughton is not playing to Wes's strengths by playing with Hooper as a lone striker. Wes looks good fiddling with the ball but there is usually little final result. He's got no one to run onto a defence splitting pass.
It's my greatest frustration with Hughton. He doesn't fit the talent to a system that maximizes the talent.
