I have to admit, I read MC’s comments about Sinclair differently to almost everyone else. He said ‘i felt sorry for him’ at least twice, as if to ameliorate things, and also when you re-watch the goal, he IS fast asleep. There’s not much defence can be made there. But i felt like he was saying ‘he played well, so i was sorry he made a mistake that cost us a goal.’ He also talked about how important it was to have SA in the team and how it might have been different had he been fit against Cardiff, a huge compliment that no one else seems to have noticed. I actually didn’t think the comments about what he needs were even necessarily about a striker, although i can’t believe he doesn’t want one, because it came after discussing defending set pieces. |
