Scott Sinclair - now gone

[passitsideways]

Has anyone ever seen him play on the right? Because he seems to me like an exclusively left-sided player, which means that he's probably up against Grealish, unless Grealish plays more centrally going forward.

Alternatively, he might be up front whenever we go two strikers.

He's looked good at times, just hope these injury issues aren't going to be a regular issue.

I would love to see him in the side alongside Benteke with Grealish in behind at home. His pace would add a fresh dimension. Or indeed have Grealish left and Sinclair right coming in.

There's a quote out there from Sherwood how with Sinclair it's a horses for courses type of situation. Which is fair enough that if we do decide to go two wingers in games Sinclair would likely come in for those games or at least be a strong contender to start. I think he has the versatility to be more than a winger so maybe there's more to come in that regard. Also, Grealish won't play every game so we need solid back up and competition for every spot. Sinclair has a lot to offer and glad we will be forming this one up. Next Cleverley and then the big one, extending Benteke.

Good news and a bargain to boot. He has a lot to prove after his Baggies/City wilderness years but in his few games for us he has shown that he's got the quality we need and a midfielder who knows how to score is always welcome. As others have mentioned here I'd like to see him lining up on the left with Jack central behind The Beast.

Dunno if I am reading too much into Tims quotes. It sounds like he has to buy him, rather than wants to.

It is interesting to see Scott and Helen already moved to the Midlands when the deal is not 100% permanent. But again  I can't see any reason we will not buy him.

eastie!! Welcome back!

I refer you to my post on the previous page or above/below  as may be the case!

There's no official confirmation as far as I can see.

The Telegraph article certainly does seem to put a pretty negative slant on it.

It's a bit of an odd deal to do. But for me he's gonna cost the same as tonev did and he's already contributed a lot more

To be fair, you and I have contributed a lot more over the last couple of seasons than Tonev has.

I think it makes sense, but I'd like Sherwood to view him as more than just a wide player. I think he would be pretty good playing up front with Benteke on occasion.

This.

Where's Tim's non-committal comments ?
