Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini warned Snodgrass to lose the pounds if he wanted a future at the London Stadium.Since that warning, the Scot has become an integral part of Pellegrini’s side, scoring twice and assisting three goals this season.“I said to the manager, ‘You try travelling from London to Birmingham and eating at services and having a balanced diet!’ I was travelling nearly 280 miles daily,” said Snodgrass.“I was up and down all over the country. Because I was on loan last year, it was difficult to get any balance or routine. It was probably the hardest year of my life but it’s the sacrifice you make to play football.Robert Snodgrass missed out on promotion with Aston Villa last season2

“I was trying to be a family man and a footballer, so it’s difficult. I said, ‘I’ll give you my all, just give me a fair chance and I’ll take it with both hands – if I don’t then I’ve only got myself to blame’.“This is why I wanted to be at West Ham. I never wanted to come and just take part. I wanted to be a team player, chipping in and earning my wage. There’s no other way for me. “It doesn’t matter if a footballer is earning 100,000 a week or 1,000 a week – the first thing you need to do is work hard for your team.“That’s the difference sometimes with the top managers. They motivate the players to work hard. The football was really good at Villa, it was all worthwhile. I had a terrific time at Villa.”Snodgrass is set to start his tenth Premier League game of the season when West Ham host Crystal Palace on Saturday.

The chase for Robert Snodgrass continued with West Ham matching Burnley's offer and M'Baye Niang had a medical at Watford 4.53pm GMT With that I think the time has come to finish an underwhelming day of transfer news.

For me though West Ham's new home kit is something very special, because the original shirt which has inspired Umbro, was used back in the time when I first came across West Ham United. In these times, when I was attending grammar school in my home town in Lower Austria, my classmates and I were very much interested in English football.

The dominant image that raises its head when I think about a runaway train is one almighty Train Crash!
