    2 goals. The one in Belfast is officially an OG.

    It wasn't just the end of the season, it was the whole season. Missed 3 easy chances in both the beer sheva games sure he missed a sitter at ibrox in New year aswell. Weakest part of his game.

    I don't understand statements like this. Sinclair scored over 20 last year, Hayes has rarely ever reached double-digits in a season. Complain about Sinclair's finishing and then big up a significantly lesser finisher? Rotation won't make Sinclair score more, playing every week will.

    Really quiet tonight. The only thing that frustrates me about him. Brilliant player and I absolutely love the guy but he quite often goes missing in games. It is frustrating because I have such high expectations of him.

    He was doubled up on really well by them.

    Posted missing?? Imagine being a winger with no striker to play off? He had Tierney down the left and * all else!

    Maybe the worst game I've seen in a Celtic strip from him.

    Second half he refused attacking responsibility, passed back almost every single time.

    He seems inconsistent at times.

    As the famous wordsmith DJ Khalid would say, "Another one".

    Another anonymous performance.

    Linked up very poor with Tierney but credit to Rosenborg they defended Sinclair well.

    Anyone else think we rely too heavily on him ?


    I really hoped Brendan would've added 2 or 3 quality players by now, we just looked flat last night, nobody was able to produce something special.

    It was clear last night as any good manager will realise he is our danger man. We usually have Moussa for defenders/managers to worry about and this can leave players like Rogic and Armstrong space to take advantage of.

    No striker and them doubling up on Sinclair and Rogic suffocated our attacks before they even got going.

    We're far too reliant on him, he's our most dangerous player, so, they'll double up on him, which leaves space for the other players to take advantage of the gaps/space that leaves, but, we failed to make anything of it. I know it's being said so much, but imagine having Roberts? Rosenborg would be *, they couldn't double up on both of them, they'd be confused and exposed, wouldn't know who to defend, they'd be turned inside out and back to front, without him....We're nowhere near as threatening or dangerous.

    You get what you get from an Aston Villa relegated side (One of the worst EPL sides ever).

    He's very, very over rated and over hyped imo. Sure, he'll get goals domestically.

    But all too often he shites it from taking on his man and passes the ball back the way to Tierney more often than not passing the buck.

    Samaras offered us far more of a threat down the left hand side in Europe and caused the opposition far more trouble. No one will convince me is a better option LW than what Samaras was for us in his time here.

    For him being reportedly our highest paid player alongside Dembele on roughly £45K a week, I'd expect far more in Europe from him. Paddy basically * all over him as a winger.

    And what's more is that Sinclair knows he will always be a guaranteed starter here under Brendan, that's never a good thing for needing to be on it and bring your A game every week when you don't feel the pressure of losing your jersey to someone else waiting to step in. His decision making is awful a lot of the times too. Our fans let him away with murder quite frankly.
