Aston Villa fans have been reminiscing on Twitter over former Villan Robert Snodgrass ahead of their weekend game against Sheffield United.
This comes after Villa fan Twitter account @avfchistory shared a post on their page of footage of Snodgrass’ goal against Sheffield United when he was a Villa player.
This post then gathered some replies from Villa fans who were quick to share their appreciation for their former player.
Would you take Robert Snodgrass back at Villa?

Here’s a sample of Villa fans missing Snodgrass:

This goal from the current West Ham winger came back in January 2018 in a 1-0 win for Villa when both clubs were still in the Championship. His 89th-minute screamer secured all three points for Villa at Bramall Lane.
Now with both teams set to face each other in the Premier League on Saturday, some Villa fans have been reminiscing over this past victory.

What do we think?
It’s good to see some Villa fans have love for Snodgrass and appreciate what he did for the club during his time there.
The now 32-year-old, who is valued at £5.4 million (as per Transfermarkt), joined Villa on a season-long loan deal from West Ham for the 2017/18 season. In his year at the Midlands club, Snodgrass made 43 appearances, scoring eight goals and picking up 13 assists along the way (per TransferMarkt).
Despite him no longer being at the club, some Villa fans still have fond memories of his year at Villa Park.
