Trip Hes not the only player in our squad with that skillset,unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I can't remember the last time he's had a shot, but you're probably right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Zatman Posted February 5, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 5, 2016 I was amazed he actually won a corner the other night and then typical West Ham scored from it. He can do nothing right 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ermie123 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I wonder what the hell Man City saw in him? On loan to the Baggies for a whole season and never played? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what Man City see in 80% of the garbage they sign. The season they signed Scott they also bought such wonders as Rodwell, Javi Garcia, Maicon and Nastasic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Rather him than Gabby tomorrow tbh. But no, I don't rate him one bit. It's almost painful watching them "perform". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Five – no, six – PL players disliked by their own fans Scott Sinclair – Aston VillaWhen Aston Villa supporters vociferously accused the club’s players of not trying following the FA Cup draw with Wycombe, Sinclair was the person who immediately sprang to mind. The winger had touched the ball 22 times in 71 minutes, and was substituted to an angry response from the away end. The accusation is that Sinclair is a coaster, happy to try on the field but hardly weighed down by relegation fears. He will simply up sticks and move on to another middling-to-low Premier League club, you see. At some point clubs will refuse to pay the £40,000 weekly wages. http://www.football365.com/news/five-pl-players-disliked-by-their-own-fans Something like that, yeah. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I'm so glad Remi realizes how awful he is, another feather in his cap. Honestly, any other manager would have continued to play him based on his reputation and the miguided hope that he'd eventually produce something. Remi gave him the Wycombe away game as his last chance to prove himself, which he didn't take and capped off with one of the most boneheaded plays ever witnessed. Sub appearances from now on if he's lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael118 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) Needs at least a place on the bench. He has goals in him and we are struggling to score. If our strikers can start scoring I'd like to see him tried with Traore on the wings. Being less of a focal point he can play his natural game and can see him scoring again.

Logistically, how would a goal involving Sinclair in 2016 (that isn't a penalty) look like? I'm struggling to imagine.

I'm struggling to imagine. The same way they looked last season and in pre season. If our strikers can hit form Sinclair can go under the radar. With space in front of him to run into he is usually effective This is more or less what I have in mind: Edited February 12, 2016 by Michael118 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted February 12, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted February 12, 2016 He was good at Swansea though... I guess he's either got rubbish, or stopped trying all together. I think it's the latter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I think it's a bit of both. I don't think he's the careless waster some make him out as, but at the same time he looks a shadow of the player who was at Swansea. Either way, he's not getting back into form any time soon or more relevantly soon enough to help us stay up, so I hope he doesn't get any more chances this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Since his form at Swansea he's become a multi-millionaire from his three years at City (and I doubt we're paying him below 40K) got together with Helen Flanagan and had a kid....what more does he need to do with his career. He could easily retire tomorrow, might aswell as no one would miss him. That's the thing, when he was at Swansea he had it all to prove, Chelsea were loaning him out a million times and I doubt the wages he was getting then were enough for a major lifestyle so he had it all to prove. Get rid of him in the summer, no chance of coming straight back up if he's going to be one of our key players down there which I very much doubt.
