Robert Snodgrass has hit out at West Ham manager Slaven Bilic following his loan move to Aston Villa.
The Scotland international last week completed his switch to Aston Villa following a disappointing spell with the Hammers, where he failed to make an impact in the capital.
However, Snodgrass has blamed Bilic for not knowing where to play him, with the former Hull man laying into the Croatian manager.
"I was coming on against City and he (Bilic) said 'Where do you want to play, on the left or right?,” the 29-year-old told Sky Sports.
"I thought 'You have just signed me and I have played on the right or behind the striker at Hull City all season'.
"That was my debut and alarm bells were ringing right away. I found it very strange and I realised from the off that it wasn't going to happen.
"Every time I played, I was on the left. I don't know why he did it. I joined as Dimitri Payet left and maybe it was a case of 'you can play there'.
"But I'd only filled in on the left on a couple of occasions. I hate that position but when you are Scottish you are brought up to play anywhere.
"It's fine to play for one or two games but you need to play in your right position, especially on the back of scoring nine goals for Hull.
"At that stage, nobody had scored more goals for Hull or West Ham. The manager was under a lot of pressure and I later said that out of respect I didn't want to go in and see him during that period.
"But when I eventually did speak to him I said I thought he would have known I wasn't a left-midfielder and that he must have watched me after signing me for that type of money.
"His answer was basically that when people are confident they can play anywhere."
should probably quit his moaning with how much of a flop he was
@JoeSWFC - If Snodgrass tells it true, probably because Bilic was a fucking amateur the way he handled him? How the hell did he have no idea what his best position was, he's been in the Prem for quite some time now! Though the "he played me there because I'm Scottish" part was weak as hell.
