COMMENTARY
He might have come under heavy criticism earlier in the season but Scott Sinclair is on fire at Celtic right now – and the fans at Parkhead are absolutely loving it. It was a case of another game, another goal in the first 45 minutes against Motherwell on Sunday afternoon, the English winger turning the ball into the back of the net with a well taken finish after a cross from out wide. He will be delighted to see himself back on the scoresheet in the league having gone four games without striking, and it makes it 17 goals for the season across all competitions – a brilliant record for someone who is usually tasked with setting up his teammates rather than scoring himself. It is fair to say that many of the doubters will have been silenced by his form of late and Sunday’s first half performance will make sure that they have nothing to complain about for another week. He is once again looking like the Sinclair who fired the Bhoys to two successive treble winning campaigns and he will be hoping that his efforts can bring more silverware to Parkhead this season.

For Sinclair to have just scored his 60th goal for Celtic already is some record in itself

Outstanding finish from the reborn poacher Scott Sinclair.
The cross from Christie wasn't half bad either.
17 goals now for Sinclair this season. ????
