Scott – It’s An Honour To Play For Your Country

Sinclair scored his 12th Swansea City goal of the season at the weekend – form which has persuaded Stuart Pearce to call him up for Under-21 duty and he could find himself in the thick of the action this evening.

Sinclair met up with the rest of the squad after Sunday’s game and flew out to Germany yesterday afternoon hopeful that his debut was just around the corner.

โ€œPlaying every week I am getting more confident as the games go on and hopefully I can take that into the international stage,โ€ Sinclair told the Western mail

โ€œIโ€™m really delighted with the call-up. Itโ€™s an honour to play for your country.

โ€œTo get into any international age group โ€“ under-18s, 19s or 21s โ€“ is a massive honour for any player and Iโ€™m really excited about it.

โ€œItโ€™s also an honour for Swansea and everyone can see the way we play football is really paying off.

โ€œThe manager brought me in and has given me loads of confidence

โ€œHe has a lot of faith in me. You can see from the way I am playing on the pitch the manager is really getting the best out of me.

โ€œSince I was 16 at Chelsea and playing as a striker heโ€™s helped me.

โ€œHe has got me as a winger now and you can see the confidence in my game โ€“ thatโ€™s down to the manager.

โ€œWeโ€™ve got to keep chasing, keep winning games and moving up the table,โ€ added Sinclair.

โ€œThere was definitely more pressure after the defeat to Bristol City.

โ€œWhen you lose your last game you have to make sure you follow it up with a win โ€“ weโ€™ve done that and hopefully we can kick on and keep winning games.

โ€œWinning the Cardiff game took a lot out of everyone and then going into the next game so quickly the boys were not on it mentally.

โ€œIt was a great result against Boro, thankfully we got the goal before the end and we are happy with the three points.

โ€œWe are always trying to push at home to get the win.

โ€œYou can see in the way we pass the ball around we are always trying to nick a goal.

โ€œIโ€™m always happy to score and I was pleased to get my 12th of the season, but more importantly we got the three points.โ€
