    Love him already,what a player,early days but can see him here for the next few years,dont think he will jump ship at the earliest chance of a move,he could have went to a premiership side before signing for us,he has been a Chelsea and Man City and never got a chance.Think he will be here long term tbh

    Haven't been that impressed tbh, still annoyed he didn't finish off that chance against HBS to kill the tie completely.

    He's nowhere near the same league as Roberts ability wise either.

    Still a vast, vast improvement on Armstrong out wide obviously but he doesn't beat his man often enough for me.

    Got a feeling he'll shine domestically but be erratic in Europe, which is the level we bought him for to perform at.

    No he isn't.

    Otherwise he wouldn't have been battling relegation for an EPL club.

    People are going ott regarding his ability.

    Lol, I knew he'd score goals at this level but his overall play hasn't impressed me from out wide, in fact could argue Forrest has been more impressive with the ball at his feet.

    Still early days right enough just think some folk are going ott regarding him atm (Especially Sutton who talks like he raised him as a child).

    Ignore the rocket ffs he knows what he's doing and so do most * on here.

    Arguing for the sheer sake of it. Wouldn't be surprised if he's got posters of Griffiths and Sinclair on his bedroom walls.


    Weve sussed your * out finny, gee it up.

    I was expecting someone of Roberts ability for the money we paid and the level he's came from (EPL). I realise their styles are completely different but I was still expecting Sinclair to go past players just as often and easily as Roberts does.

    Hasn't happened so far can go by players but nowhere near as often as Roberts and passes backwards a lot also.

    If that's trolling then so be it but that's what I'm seeing on the pitch.

    You don't get Patrick Roberts as he is now for around £3 million.

    So you were expecting a £3million player to be as good as a £12million player.

    Your maths is * * and so is your logic.

    Well that's what Man City paid for him about that, the rest is made up of add ons which haven't been triggered yet in a Man City shirt and possibly never will be.

    Looks like your facts are *.

    It's about £3-4M they paid up front for Roberts with the rest made up in add ons regarding what he does in a City shirt.

    So he's not a £12M player at all, not yet anyway.

    Roberts, who plays as a forward or winger, has moved for an undisclosed fee but the figure is understood to be £11m, with £5m up front for the 18-year-old with a further £6m in add-ons.

    So £5M then, our overall deal for Sinclair is supposed to be £4.5M with add ons.

    So not that far apart.

    Be serious, regardless of opinion!
    His previous clubs speak for his ability.

    He has it 100% no doubt! but whether he shows it in life and does that at Celtic is to be seen, but so far he has and the likelihood is he will prove a great Celtic player.

    He is the first player in hoops since Henrik who has that gazelle like speed over the first yards, makes other players look like they are stuck in mud.

    Celtic made Henrik a super star, before Celtic, Henrik was a good prospect, Celtic provided an attacking style of play, he was given the chance to shine.
    Henrik actually had a bad first game and people were dismissing him, thankfully he was given a chance.

    Sinclair if he wants can definitely be a star as he has that extra ability.

    And how do you know we haven't paid 50p for Sincliar and the rest is made up of add ons depending what he does in a Celtic shirt? You don't. Ya clown.
