I think if we keep him he could score some important goals for us this season

I'd let him go, he's had plenty of chances and he just doesn't cut it. I had high hopes for him at one point but doesn't offer anything.

It all comes down to money and getting rid of the 'high' earners, ready for the championship!

He's really not going to make the difference for us this season, and probably won't be with us if we take the drop.

I'd say 'massive flop' is way over the top. We payed a couple of million tops for him and in his time at villa he's has a decent goalscoring record.

Yeah but I still think he's been rubbish like a lot of others mind

Agree. Massive flop is a bit ridiculous really.

isn't he still our top scorer? He hasn't lived up the potential he showed at Swansea that's for sure, but last season he made some telling contributions in games and score some important goals. He hasn't been a massive flop.

I'm disappointed because I think there is more to Sinclair. The change in manager when he signed was a disaster for him and playing in a struggling team that can't keep hold of the ball  - well even Benteke struggled with that.

He has looked lost at times, so maybe it is best for all concerned. I've seen no evidence that he has a bad attitude.

It was a big chance given to him when he joined, but he hasn't taken it.

He's in the starting line up tonight - not sure if that's any indication of him staying or going. No gabby though

It never seems like it matters much to him. He does send my tosspot radar off, just like Dave Bentley used to. I dunno, maybe he's not but he just seems like a bit of show pony to me. The bare minimum sort. He comes in and treats it like a day job rather than a passion.

He's been the best player for us tonight, albeit in a shocking display.
