Bosman changed everything, no doubt. We went from a game where the clubs took advantage of the players, to a game where the players take advantage of the clubs.
Football has always been a particularly mercenary game.
Absolutely. Did it consistently in different leagues for different clubs over his whole career.
That seems to under-rate his contribution immensely. When he played for us, he was widely considered the best player on the team, including Greaves.
They were if you look how much they generated for the clubs at the time, but they did earn more than your average bloke, many players were happy with this.

When we had both them and VDV in the same team,i genuinely believe we were only a player or 2 short of being the real deal.
A surprisingly eloquent response from a cunt who, as he lost his extra yard, turned into the bald Terry Hurlock
