Re: ARTICLE: Clarets linked with Nigerian winger and Bristolian full back
Reading the one team in Bristol message board, it seems unanimous in the fans’ eyes that Bryan is a better left midfielder than left back. There’s also a strong feeling that he has a poor second half of the season and generally they don’t seem too sad to see him go.
