Wilma, I agree Sinclair is a lovely guy, who really understands 'playing for Celtic' and who has scored some important goals for us in the past. But as I've stated previously, the stats are skewed due to early season games and matches against the bottom 6 teams. Since Boxing Day he his stats against top 6 SPL teams + Valencia (he was only picked for 1 game) are truly awful. He has started 10 games (subbed off in 6) and come on in 5 games. In a total playing time of ~820 minutes (getting towards nearly 14 hours), he has scored zero goals and contributed zero assists. For a senior player on one of the highest wages, that is absolutely terrible. These are the games we need our top experienced players to step up in, not go hiding in. I would be delighted if he proves me wrong and batters Hearts with a hat-trick, but at the moment I believe there are others players more deserving of a start than him based on current form and contribution to the team performance.
Thanx Bridie that explains it better than me, i don’t ever know stats and the like i only ever know what im watching.
I can understand his goals why wilma posted but i can’t base a footballers sum worth on goals especially when some would have been penalties and against easier opposition at a time when stronger pro’s are onside with you.
