Scott Sinclair?

Sun Apr 21, 2013 2:25 pm

I know he's an ex Jack etc etc but he's a pacey, skilful winger. He came on as a sub today but he has played very little football for Man City. Worth a bid?

No he was a shadow of the player he was in the Championship

Fair enough. You could tell as soon as he went to City he weren't going to get hardly any game time.

he knew that before he went but i think his mrs had a big say in moving to manchester and probably doubling (and more) his wages helped but an awful career move

Yes. Definitely his "big money move" so to speak.

He wasn't all that in the championship! He scored a shit load of pens. He was thier equivalent to Rosco.

I'm still fuming that Stuart Pearce didn't have him on pen duty in the Olympics. We would have beaten South Korea if Sinclair had taken the pens rather than Rambo :x

I think 6 of those were pens.He hit a wall once in the PL with us.He soon realised that the full backs were as fast as him and faster so he couldn't outrun them like in the Championship.Like the others have said we couldn't believe our luck when Man City offered us 7m.

It had to be one of the maddest moves ever.

Why will he move, no club is going to offer his wages, are Citeh going to pay up most of his contract and sell him cheap to move on.

A Bellamy type loan move for the season. Is he better than Conway or Noone ?
