Sinclair and Nastasic - the Mystery

Nastasic seems to be the victim of a mysterious injury of Bojinov and Michael Johnson proportions. It has been reported to be muscular or calf, but there seems to be little to no information on him. Also, if he goes, does he need replacing? There was an MEN Article on him recently below
I thought Sinclair looked like he could make a good impact this season, his form pre-season was good and he looked sharp, then the season starts and its up yours son?

MANCHESTER CITY'S forgotten man Scott Sinclair admits a lack of first-team football means he will have to look for a transfer in January.
The 25-year-old, formerly of Chelsea, has not made a Premier League start for over two years and has played just 22 minutes in two matches this season, one of which was the Community Shield.
Sinclair has made only 17 appearances since being signed by former manger Roberto Mancini for £6.2m in the summer of 2012 and spent an equally fruitless loan spell at West Brom last season.
The ex-England Under-21 international has since been linked with a move to top-flight rivals Southampton and Everton, and is seemingly trying to catch their attention.
"It has been very frustrating for the last couple of years," Sinclair said.
"I have tried to do as well as I can in training and hope to get a chance but at this moment in time it is hard for me to get a game.
All I can do is re-evaluate in January and go from there
There are some world class players here so I can't do much more than keep working hard in training.
"I don't feel I've had the best of chances; I just want to get out there and show why City bought me but I've not had that opportunity.
"I made the decision (to move to City) and I have to deal with it, I can't look back and say it was a mistake but the only thing I do miss is playing football.
"I made the decision to come to City and fight it out with all the big players and it hasn't really worked out this far.
"All I can do is re-evaluate in January and go from there."

Matija Nastasic could finally leave the Etihad Stadium.
Nastasic has not played since the Community Shield. Still only 21, Nastasic joined City from Fiorentina in 2012 and appeared to attract interest from a number of Serie A clubs in the summer.
Nastasic, nominated for the PFA Young Player of the Year in his debut year at Eastlands, has made only one appearance all season - in the Community Shield - and played just 20 times under Manuel Pellegrini last term. A baffling knee injury derailed his progress at City, yet the additions of Martin Demichelis and Eliaquim Mangala have effectively forced him into the departure lounge at the Etihad Stadium.
Even Dedryck Boyata has been on the bench ahead of Nastasic for the last four games.
