    Sorry to say it but I’m not sure we will ever see sinclairs first season form. Looks like his confidence has vanished completely. Every time he has the ball he looks timid and nervous, and does the usual, loads of wee touches, then checks inside and does nothing. Sad times

    Shimmy shimmy shimmy. Cut inside. Lose the ball or hit it off some *..

    Rinse and repeat. By * does he rinse it..

    He did nothing wrong when he came on, he isn’t * and it wasn’t just him that struggled against their defence.

    He's a one trick pony. As previously said, run toward the by line and drift inside toward an opposition player. Rinse and repeat for duration

    He hasn't hit the heights of season one granted but give back us peace. He isn't * and for all those that want him punted, who you going to replace him with? We haven't even replaced Armstrong and Roberts and you want to sell a player who heavily contributes to goal - both scoring and assisting....

    I’m not saying he needs to get punted but he’s definitely running out of time to recapture the form that made him so great in his first season.

    Thought he did next to nothing when he was on, same predictable move over and over for 20 minutes. Where’s the Sinclair that would take on players and have a shot at goal?

    I’m not his biggest fan and he annoys the life out of me, but I thought he was okay when he came on. Yes he was predictable but he tried to make things happen, got a shot or two off and won a couple of corners.

    He did more in his cameo than Edouard or Griffiths did.

    Played very well against Rosenborg at home. I'm aware he had a poor spell of form from Christmas, but he doesn't suddenly become a bad player.

    He didn’t tho. He took the ball towards their fullback, yes. But continuously cut in, passed to Ntcham, over and over. Can’t remember him having an effort at goal, or try to cut towards goal and go around his man. Everyone in the stadium knew what he was doing when he got the ball.

    He did shoot. Go watch the second half.

    i agree hes been struggling , but i thought he was quite menacing when he came on. the middle was clogged up so you had to take the ball wide and pull some defenders with you.

    They were a very basic, slow and poor side for me..

    He's been utterly garbage for far too long..

    A wee bit of skill in tight situations wouldn't go a miss. If a guy is 5 feet from him, he's 100% passing the buck to KT..

    The left back is doing mental skills high up to beat a man. 2 men. Ntcham as well. Sinclair hasn't got that..

    I found it unbelievable how congested the box was and how much space was on the left behind the right back...yet he cut inside everytime, but the last where he got his first bit of joy..

    Hayes is honestly a better option at the moment. He looks * scared. Like he's been castrated. * worried he'll never be back.
