I mentioned on the Newcastle post match thread - I actually watched him from the KO (I have an on going discussion with someone next to me who rates him but feels he is played in the wrong positions) and he took 13 minutes before he actually touched the ball!

He is a charlatan in the way he hides in a game and then has a 5 min burst to remind people he is still on the pitch then fades back into invisibility
Awful "nothing" player

Agreed. Utterly invisible. Definitely isn't one who wants to grab the ball, force the issue. Weimann contributed more to the team than SS

Dreadful waste of talent, inept attitude, a multi millionaire nonentity as a footballer, whose level is probably League 1.

He's played the equivalent minutes of 28 league games in the last 4 years, he's semi retired and on a cushy number, he couldn't give a shit. We are easy money, come in do a few hours training, go home, turn up at the weekend, get beat, no worries no pressure no expectations, go home, count money, rinse and repeat.

He makes a lot of runs off the ball and is rarely found because we don't have the ability to pass to him. After a while you stop making the runs.
I accept he is a bit lightweight but no manager has worked out where or how to play him.

I think all his previous managers have worked out where to play him - In someone else's team !

Didn't Dave from Bath's mate (who knows Sinclair) say that he has little interest in playing?

When he was a 19 year old kid he said he was quite happy being paid ten grand per week to drive round London in his Range Rover.

Whether the 27 year old version still feels the same as he did back then is anybody's guess.

Stephen Ireland mark 2, I play because they pay me, but if i dont play I still get paid, win win.

Ireland broke his leg last week. That was definitely a win-win for me.

Dear God just how many useless overpaid tosspots have passed through our doors inrecent years , just the mention of Ireland's name  makes me think of Chome plated cars and not football.

it makes me think of double page spreads in numerous lifestyle magazines that focussed on his and his squeeze's appalling lack of taste in home décor and motor vehicles - the prerequisite being that they had to be pink. The sheer vulgarity of most contemporary footballers is breath-taking. A total tool.

If I knew how to do it I would put up a poll inviting guesses who would be the first of our wretches to produce the stock tabloid headline MY VILLA HELL.  My money would be on Flowerpot Man but it could easily be Sinclair.

I don't think Sinclair could be bothered doing an interview now, he'll just move along in a season or two and populate someone elses bench whilst they try to find a position that suits him.

Well, I for one am going to guess that if anything he's even worse now.

His best position is playing on the left, cutting in on his right foot.
