A new permanent member of the first team squad, Scott's promotion was reward for progress the teenager made the previous campaign, and he was quickly in the action again as a substitute against Manchester United in the 2007 Community Shield.

Used as a regular by Avram Grant in the earlier stages of both the Carling and FA Cups last season, Scott scored his first Chelsea goal in September, slotting home coolly at Hull in a 4-0 win.

This was followed up with a loan spell at QPR, which coincided with the Loftus Road side's climb from the foot of the table.

The winger was able to return for Carling Cup duty against Liverpool, before coming on as a substitute against Newcastle for his sole league appearance of the season. It was a change that sparked waves of Chelsea attacks, bringing about a 2-1 victory.

Two more Championship loan spells followed, both in London, firstly with Charlton and then with Crystal Palace, where Scott scored vital goals, including one superb solo effort to take the Eagles into the play-offs.

A speedy, direct-running player, Sinclair was signed at 16 from Bristol Rovers in July 2005, having made his debut for his previous club aged just 15. A tribunal set an initial £200,000 fee with further payments depending on progress.

In his first Chelsea campaign he top scored in the youth team with 15 goals, adding a further four in the reserves. Steady progress continued in his second season as he was asked to play mostly wide left of a front three with licence to cut in and shoot with his favoured right-foot.

He was the reserves' leading marksman with seven goals from 11 appearances plus one goal from six in the youth side.

A first team debut came just after Christmas, in the final three minutes away at Wycombe in the Carling Cup semi-final first leg before a loan to Championship side Plymouth where Scott soon made headlines.

Proving he could take the dribbling skills seen at junior level onto the bigger stage, a solo spectacular from inside his own half against Barnet was voted the goal of the 2007 FA Cup fourth round and he followed it with one from the same mould against Crystal Palace and another in the Cup.

The successful spell in Devon provided 18 games of first team experience before a return to Chelsea in May and a sub appearance in the 80th minute at Arsenal. That was followed by a first start at home to Man United.

A promising home debut was ended by a Wes Brown foul and a broken metatarsal but Scott healed rapidly enough for another cameo against the same opposition in the Community Shield.

Now with another year's experience under his belt, he will be looking to establish himself in the Chelsea first team reckoning but is on loan at Championship promotion-challengers Birmingham until the end of the season.
