He's young, quick and knows how to beat a man.
Scored 27 goals from left wing in the championship at 21 which included a hat trick in the biggest game of his life.
Bagged another 8 from left wing last year in a Swansea team that for all there great football weren't exactly prolific.
I think it takes bottle to come to a big club where he knows he'll have to graft his arse off just to even get a chance , especially after getting sacked off by Chelsea.
He could have had a comfortable career in the middle reaches of the league instead
Playing for a newly promoted side he looked top draw, but there is a reason why he never made it at Chelsea he wasn't good enough. So how is he ever going to be good enough for us.
Sinclair was a Marwood smart arse signing, he thought he could get someone on the cheap and take the plaudits.
Every club releases players that they don't think are good enough. Barcelona get it wrong all the time.
I'm not saying he's the answer , just think we should give him a chance before writing him off
Giving him a chance (as in backing him when he plays) doesnt mean we cant hold the opinion he is (a) a poor signing in terms of pedigree (b) we shouldnt have signed him and (c) think he will feature VERY rarely.
Its okay though - you can join the balotelli club - you know the one which preaches on a daily basis about 'just wait and see' ... 'will improve' ... 'will win the ballon d'or one day'
