    Gets it more harshly than anyone else in the team, bar Lustig.

    He shat it early on I think, was it Edouard, Christie and Tierney who all got clattered by quite hard late tackles in the first 10 minutes - after that you could tell Sinclair didnt want to see the ball and be on the end of it.

    Missed this game because am working but Sinclair does get it tight on here at times. It's frustrating he isn't at his best in recent times but he is still a good player that has goals in him. He is a confidence man, show him some love, he will start firing again. He didn't just suddenly lose ability to play football

    With a few exceptions he's getting it for his performances for the guts of a year......not just today!!! Lustig is an entirely different matter.

    Actually ran off the park by the dug out at 1 point because he thought he was gonna get hit :56:

    Hit him once and he's gone. I'd lay money this goes through his head everytime he get's clattered early on "Where's KT, Where's KT"..

    Is it harsh to single him out though ? Forrest Christie Edouard Mcgregor Boyata and Tierney have all been playing out their skin recently Sinclair is consistently pish.

    2 choices when he gets the ball either lose it or pass it straight back to Tierney. Very rarely direct anymore it's a shame how it's gone after the first season

    He isn’t consistently pish at all. He made the right pass several times today (not to Tierney).

    Honestly no Idea what you've been watching. He hides all the time. You can count the amount of times he takes a man on or actually passes the ball forward on the one hand. He'll be on of our top earners and shouldn't even be starting. Lewis Morgan did more in 25 mins than Sinclair did in 90

    5 league goals since mid December 2017. That's grim.

    Spot on. Not sure what people are seeing in him.

    Making an accurate 10 yard pass every so often isn't enough. He needs to be taking players on, scoring more goals, creating more chances.

    The last sentence is absolute guff. Bar one shot, Morgan did nothing.

    He was poor today but you claimed he was consistently pish. He isn’t. He played very well in our last game and has done several times this season.

    It got to a point today where Christie or Rogic were linking up more with KT overlapping, all this whilst Sinclair is just wandering about.

    2 or 3 penalties as well I'm sure..

    The stats don't lie..

    Just in last few week's from open play he's missed an open goal v hibs from 4 yard's out. Missed an open goal v the diets twice in the cup, good defending but pish finishing. Missed a 1 on 1 at 1 nil v Leipzig. Missed an absolute sitter today to get us the win..

    That has been a constant theme with him for a ridiculously long time now and that's just off my head of late but you could go right through for well over a year and he's fluffed sitter after sitter through on goal..

    Think we'll need to agree to disagree he was anonymous on Thursday as well although he did well for the goal. Morgan was poor as well but would actually run at players and look to take them on which is what I want in a winger. I was hopeful he would kick on after the Aberdeen goal but he hasn't

    So he wasn’t anonymous then.
