A 50/50 between him and the goalie is more like a 100/0

And anyone. Not just goalies.

He could have got that one easy today. Chose to avoid it. Again.

How to play football the Scott Sinclair way:

In possession - slow right down to control the ball, position body into that weird hunched shoulders tippy toe thing you do (do all of this slowly enough to give the other team time to double up on you), try to cut inside and shoot but run into the defender.

Out of possession - avoid getting hurt at all costs

That passage of play was mental. They ended up through on our keeper after their goalies challenge :lol:

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
KT on the left and Scott on the bench works well. He doesn't try and go past players anymore. Last year he was doing it for fun.
He does. Major problem though is he is almost always doubled up on and he doesn't know how to deal with that and keep going forward. Instead chooses safe passes.
If he is always being doubled up on how come we don't seem to exploit the space this should create? That's the bit I don't get. Why keep feeding him the ball in tight spaces. Let him draw the players then take advantage.

Doesn’t help having Miller behind him. Normally, he would free up for KT. Miller offered nothing other than a 5 min cameo not long before he was hooked.

He had 3 or 4 chances in the first half to do something magical and each time he turned backwards. He isn't the only one guilty of this in fairness. If he tried to pass players and lost the ball I couldn't give an eff as at least he would be trying. I checked our possession stats and once again we have more than 2/3rds of the game. Seems as if we try and keep the ball ahead of taking a chance, particularly in the final third. Scotty needs to believe in himself again.

He was favourite for that ball. No doubt about it.

He gets away with murder.

Rodgers has spoken a lot of times about "putting more risk into the game" when we're trailing or drawing at half time. I wish sometimes we'd start like that. Just effing go for it, entertain the folk sitting in the freezing cold watching Ajer and Hendry knock the ball about between them.

How does he 'get away with murder'?

There's been more criticism of him from the Celtic support than anyone else this season :ponder:

When DDV had a goal kick today Ajer and Hendry would immediately go either side of our penalty box in line with 6 yard box wanting a pass out. Horrible to watch. Get the players up the park and launch it.

We can stop the ‘there’s always 2 men on him’ pish now. That’s only because he slows down, makes no attempt to beat the full back and allows defensive cover to arrive.

Utterly abject today.

He was the most senior player in the team today and he took no responsibility at all for making anything happen.

That isn't exactly true. As soon as he gets the ball he is doubled up on.

Had a few decent runs today.

Think he will have a part to play on Thursday.
