Robert Snodgrass urges teammates to be "heroes"

Norwich City midfielder Robert Snodgrass has urged his teammates to become "heroes" in order to get the club the points required to survive in the Premier League this season.

Snodgrass said that in recent games they have not been able to achieve the results they want, but it will just take one or two players to step up and the rest will follow.

"We've not been able to capitalise on the opportunities we've had," Sky Sports News quotes Snodgrass as saying. "The last two months we've had opportunities to stay unbeaten, but we've just shot ourselves in the foot and caused our own problems.

"We were in front against Cardiff City. We conceded two goals within two minutes. I can go on. We've made those mistakes, but there's no better way to make a name for yourself by scoring the winner at St Mary's or keeping a clean sheet.

"I think that's what it takes. We need leaders, we need men, we need heroes. We do need people to stand up and those match-winners, myself included."

Norwich travel to St Mary's to take on Southampton on Saturday afternoon.
