BOS (again) on 12:23 - Jan 16 with 3275 views | stevec | Whether he’s been phoning it in he’s been handicapped by the appalling full backs he’s had behind him this season. Add that to the mix with no Eze to relieve the pressure and quite honestly, I’m not surprised he goes into a strop. If we play three at the back, he could play wing back either side and we’d see a different player I’m sure. He needs to get the joy back in his game. | | |  |
BOS (again) on 12:26 - Jan 16 with 3267 views | ted_hendrix | *I think his agent has messed to club around really badly and we shouldn't, if possible, deal with that agent again. But blaming the player for everything isn't right.* His Agent might be the very same Agent who brought him to QPR in the first place? also like it or not we can't pick and choose players Agents either. Players Agents are what they are, they continually get a bad press but again like it or not they are part and parcel of modern football and we have to get on with it and deal with it. Could the club or the player or the bloody Agent have dealt with it better, who knows? We are talking about a players livelihood and his future so I'd expect almost demand that the Agent would get the best deal possible for BOS not anybody else. I'm not broken hearted he's gone/going or whatever although I would have liked him to have signed and stayed with us, he hasn't so consequently it's a San fairy ann from me. | |

BOS (again) on 12:35 - Jan 16 with 3228 views | rsonist | Ideally we sign a replacement straight away. If that's not possible I would broadly speaking not go for creating a punitive atmosphere just for the sake of it. But that depends on his inclination to honour his contract, how his team mates are reacting, if and how deceitful his camp may have been in negotiations, a bunch of stuff only the people involved can know. | | |  |
BOS (again) on 12:38 - Jan 16 with 3210 views | CheshireR | He is definately having his strings pulled by his agent here. As Rsonist rightly point out, the compensation we will receive if he goes overseas will be negligible, leaving greater rewards to be shared between BOS and his representative. His intentions were clear with the previously aborted Bruges move. As a club we are told we carry out due diligence on a players character - it's not so easy to do this with their agents. The historic big three teams in Turkey were all struggling financially, even before this pandemic. Their estimated debts being in the region of Besiktas €280M, Galatasaray €190M and Fenerbahce €300M. All this further compounded by 10 months (and counting) of Covid and the first season in living memory that not one of them has qualified for the lucrative European competitions. Good luck Bright - you may need it. | | |  |

BOS (again) on 12:41 - Jan 16 with 3191 views | YokelR | No point getting upset about it. Player declines to sign new contract and wants to let contract run out what can you do? Offer him gobs of cash which upsets the budget and everyone else? He and his agent will have made dough from the move, as for his career think that's probably going nowhere? It's modern football, we'll probably benefit from a player elsewhere letting a contract run down? Only question mark now is how committed he is to seeing the season out? | | |  |

BOS (again) on 12:51 - Jan 16 with 3142 views | CliveWilsonSaid | I was upset at the thought of losing last seasons BOS. This seasons BOS less so. I’m not going to be too critical of him because we don’t really know whats gone on. Also we’d happily sign a player from another team in similar circumstances. Modern football 👎 | |

BOS (again) on 13:00 - Jan 16 with 3082 views | Jigsore | it'd be entertaining seeing Bright and Ozil on the same team for novelty more than anything else | |

BOS (again) on 13:33 - Jan 16 with 2955 views | Whip_It | Find it hard to imagine that any of Bright's critics would seriously contemplate doing anything different if they were in his boots. He's been a thrilling player to watch, with perhaps a slight dip in performance this season with the loss of players he used to link with so well, but I have no complaints about his contribution to the Rs. Would have liked him to make us a tidy £10m profit, but we really have no right to expect that, and it's boring and sad to keep reading people huffing and puffing about this. We benefit from this system just as much, if not more so. Good luck Bright, and I hope you score a few more worldies before you go. | | |  |

BOS (again) on 14:13 - Jan 16 with 2776 views | Esox_Lucius | Having seen him play something similar in the U23's, Paul Smyth in the LWB role might be an option. Caveat, I can't remember what his defending was like, but breaking from deep and either cutting inside or whipping decent crosses was already in his locker. | |
