The worst part is I would pick Bojan in place of Ince Afobe McLean Even woods in their positions any day of the week ! And anyone on here who tells me ince is a better player or shows more passion than Bojan is quite frankly an idiot or a liar !!! So go figure I know which ones would be out of the door first.

Looks like he training away from the club from his Instagram post Nath's got his League One Mongrels and Freebies in. Pedigree's need not apply. Nail on head. What are we becoming

I watched 'Control' last night. If I'm in the same pub as Jonesy over the next few weeks I will place a note on his table that says 'Bojan, you cunt'....

Lifetime goals? I read somewhere that Barcelona records show that Bojan took Messi’s youth teams scoring record off him, scoring well over 700 goals over 10 seasons from ages eight to eighteen. For what it’s worth, Afobe would have done well to have beaten that record! Ok. Probably not relevant to today, but I think there’s a bit of magic in realising that little old Stoke has a 29 year old player on the books who has achievements like that and won Champions League medals alongside Messi in the world’s best team. Players like Bojan for me make that walk to the ground more exciting, whether they always play well or not, and I’ve not had that feeling for the last two or three seasons because of the sterile dross served up. I wish the new manager had chosen to give him a proper chance in the rebuild of the team, but it appears he hasn’t. Oh well, maybe he’ll get an extra five percent effort from McLean and Clucas, and just maybe there’ll be another player of Bojan’s talent lurking amongst his League 1 cheapo’s and free transfers? He has made a big call here and really needs his new signings to hit the ground running. Everything Bojan did in the past is irrelevant because he’s a shadow of his former self since he ruptured his ACL. That said, he is probably still the best natural finisher we have on the books. How Many Fucking Times

Whilst he was an amazing talent for us before the Rochdale match and it is a shame what has happened I simply cannot wait for him to be sold.
Simply because some of our fanbase are totally hung up on him, it's almost part of the poison in the club. Whilst he is here I think anyone who performs slightly well may be overshadowed by the fact this guy isn't playing.
Rip the plaster off Stoke and get rid!

I think he's brilliant, but it's like Chinese water torture for any manager. Every press conference before every game he gets asked the same question: 'will Bojan be playing?' When Bojan doesn't play, then regardless of the result, he gets asked the same question: 'why didn't you play Bojan? Will Bojan be getting a look in?' If Bojan does player, then regardless of the result, he gets asked the same question: 'what did you think of Bojan today?' It's not Bojan's fault, but the fact that supporters and journalists are so utterly obsessed with him completely undermines whatever the manager wants to do. If he wants to try something different, it's about 30 seconds before people start asking about Bojan. If he thinks he has a better option for a particular game, people will immediately want to know why he didn't pick Bojan. You simply can't have one player bigger than the club like that, especially when said player was the figurehead for the brutal revolt against the previous manager. As such, it's deeply regrettable that the best thing for everyone is for him to move elsewhere.

Read that in a way that he wants Badou back with the squad once Afcon is over for him. Jones wants to keep hold of a player who distinctly does not want to be here. He wants to get rid of players that still want to be here. That's not exactly a sign of good management.

I'd agree but it's not going to happen that way. Nathan Jones loves players like McClean. He'd rather sign another one like him than play a true talent. And then he would sign yet another, and another, as he's just proved in this window.

I remember when he signed Bojan the Barca prodigy record breaking magician, the goal scoring genious, a world star and he did perform for us. Compare this with the underwhelming (for some on here) names appointed this week.
He is still the best chance of a goal in our squad but he's not suited for us and the league now allegedly. I would be gutted if he left but I think he has no option if he not getting a game here. If it were me he would get a game and a long run too only way to see if he can or can't, one game here and there is not enough for him to prove himself.

It's not going to play out like that since Jones has decided to block Bojan from the first team. It could be held against him if things don't work out better than they did last season.

It’s going to come down 10x worse on NJ than it did on GR if this doesn’t work out. It’s a huge decision by him.

I’m a massive fan of Bojan but even I’m coming to the point where I believe it’s best for the club that he moves on. He divides the fanbase. Chants of Bojan relentlessly while he sits on the bench don’t help the team. He’s seemingly had problems with every manager...some even forget he was turfed out on loan for a period. People inside the club hinted at players who bang on about training with Instagram posts etc yet don’t do the work on the actual training ground. If the manager can get Badou to stay, we’d get more out of him than we would out of Bojan. I simply don’t think he’s cut out for this league.

Absolutely, he's forced himself into having to have his team (and it will be definitely seen as his team) hit the ground running, no improvement in the first 3/4 home games and the inevitable will happen. Jones obviously has massive faith in his own ability (then again so did Rowett) let's hope it's not misplaced or things could get awkward.

It's not going to make a difference if he goes or not. Whether he goes or stays people will go to that song as soon as performances don't improve. It's not about just not playing Bojan its about the fact that we're shit and we've fucked it all up - that we had players like him but now look how far we've fallen. The Muniesa song wasn't sung last season because people are calling for Muniesa to play but because its from a better time. I don't know why anyone thinks its going to make a difference whether he goes or stays. It's going to come down like a ton of bricks on NJ if he's not got this decision right.

He's a pansy. You need a competitive edge of some degree, even Silva has a competitive edge What a clown you are, have you been asleep for forty years?? This generation of footballers don't have to kick then shit out of one another, things have become a little more technical since your trance. You need to wake up from that deep sleep, we have colour TV nowadays as well.... 😁 the same culprits liking your post. He's certainly got a few smitten, that's for sure. If he's not doing it he's not doing it, anywhere not just at stoke funnily enough.

It's Stoke City FC not Bojan FC for crying out loud. Maybe so but my point was that people are saying getting rid of Bojan will make the singing stop and it won't. I also genuinely don't think people necessarily sing that song because they are demanding for Bojan to play as I said above like the Muniesa song, Odenwingie song etc being sung many a time last season its because the football is shit and they are from a better time. I think too much is made of it to be honest. GR brought what came to him on himself by slagging off a current squad player. NJ will have brought it on himself by making those remarks about Bojan being a crucial part of his plans when he first joined then barely giving him a chance, in favour of Ince who did nothing. It's their own fault and I think anyone saying Bojan is problem is completely missing the point.

"Because his natural talents and gifts haven't shown since 2016/17 including two loan spells, and it's a shame that a player who had so much promise has faded" Every single manager, Lambert, Rowett, Jones, Schmidtt (Mainz) Di Biasi and Fernandex (Alaves) - All have come to the same conclusion. It's a crying shame, it really is, he was insane before Rochdale, he has lost it now. Stop fawning, back Stoke City and not Bojan. I pray we get rid this Summer, the backlash will be big for a week or so, then we can finally move on!
