    19 games 10 goals 7 assists

    He can continue being * if that’s his return!

    I think with Dembele back you will see him hold the ball up and feed Sinclair. Recently Sinclair has been receiving the ball with his back to goal thus making it harder to make his speedy runs. I think with Dembele back in form we will turn the sheep over on Wednesday

    He's too isolated far too often, both him and Roberts. I've noticed it lately in games.

    We give him the ball then the other players make their way into the box or stand multiple yards away from him, while 2 opposition players mark him.

    He has the ability to deal with that of course but it is causing moves to break down, same with Pat.

    Also feel his allround game contribution needs to improve. Stats wise this season you cannot complain but incredibly, even with the above stats that Paul posted, he could still do so much more IMO.

    Much like Griffiths, his stats don't tell the full story.

    His actual performances over 90 minutes have been way below the level he can play at. He goes missing far too often. Can only really remember him beating his full back once today, and that was with 5 minutes to go.

    Really could be doing with a few games on the bench...but we don't really have a great choice of replacements.

    Thought he'd have played better having been dropped on Wednesday and today but he wasn't at it again and he's not scoring as much which is a problem.

    It's just not happening at the moment for Sinclair. He was pretty ineffectual today after coming on.

    He's been poor recently, it has to be said. Looks a level below his best

    Having all that pace in his locker & no running at full-backs is brutal.

    It’s like having the biggest tallywhacker in the world & pulling a lassie just to give her a cuddle.

    Would be starting Hayes ahead of him for a couple of weeks.

    Until he gets his head out of his * - nowhere near even a decent enough level for Celtic in his current form.

    Really off the boil at the moment. Needs a good performance to get him going again.

    * pish for weeks now. Needs to get the finger out and actually try.

    So half arsed tonight.

    Drop him for a few games and give Johnston and Hayes some time.

    Sounded like some fans were turning on him a bit towards the end of the first half.


    Shocking tonight.

    Needs to and CAN do so much more.

    He is very one dimensional at times and it gets exposed at that level.

    Thing is, domestically he hasn't been up to standard for a month or so now.

    Think it’s just a case of resting him.

    He’s still an end product machine despite dropping in performance level from last season.
