Ten Hag didn't walk into Manchester United demanding that we sign Marco Arnautovic.

This is a signing you make when you fail to secure your main targets in the position, plural. Just as our previous managers complained about having to settle for their fourth and fifth choice signings.

I have no idea why anyone would blame ETH for the continuation of a pattern that has long preceded him just because he's chooisng the particular flavour of shit he's being served.
Very true

Yeah after 9 years of poor performances and mismanagement it's definitely knee jerk
It is. If you don't agree, read again what you posted. It'd knee jerk.

So for now, relax and stay out of Cafe for sometime. It will help !

This is the worst piece of transfer news ive ever heard involving this club. A 33 year old past-it middle-team striker with a history of enthusiastic racism is being touted to wear one of the most prestigeous club emblems in football at one of the most iconic arenas.

This is shocking and frankly upsetting.
As shocking and upsetting as being freshly crowned champions ending the following summer window with massive over price for Fellaini with 5 minutes of window remaining?

Everything about the club since Sir Alex left has been upsetting.

The fact that Arnautovic is anywhere close to being a 4-5th choice option is the problem.

Arnautovic :lol: Sure let's take another clearly not good enough player looking for his last big contract who will solve absolutely none of our problems. Sounds like a great idea.

Fellaini turned out to be one of the best signing's we made in the last 9 years.

Can't spell Mkhitaryan
Marco Arnautovic...this must be how Everton fans feel when they get linked to a new player.

EtH's time will be short if he doesn't get a few decent players in. He will learn quickly that some of these lads are done for us. Rashy, Shaw and Scotty T are just a few that look like they don't believe that they are professional football players, zero confidence.

This club deserves everything it is going to get. How it manages to get more shambolic by the year is no mean feat.

Hand on heart, cannot see EtH still being here in 18 months.

I think people need to chill out a bit. Take a walk outside and think about something else.

I already had very little expectation from this season and now if we sign this guy we might as well stop bothering. He shouldn't be anywhere near close to this supposed "list", let alone being 4 or 5th choice on that.

Would this be a more embarrassing singing than when Liverpool signed Rickie Lambert?

Our transfer department really is just horrible. So we get priced out of Antony and Sesko so somehow we get to Arnautovic? It's embarrassing. I'd rather give the kids gametime. I'd rather just let Rashford play every second of every game.

Says someone every season but here we still are. People are allowed to vent their frustrations without being patronised.

If you have a the likes of Arnautovic on your list you aren't MUFC quality as a manager or a scout. There is no excuse for having him on any list let alone 5th choice.

He should fit in well. We are quite rubbish.

Ighalo, Cavani, Ronaldo and now Arnautovic. How many short term solutions will it take before we'll find our main striker?

€15m and a 3 year contract for a 33 year old midtable (racist) Serie A player. This is she cannae take the strain captain worthy if it happens

I hate to be singing from the same hymn sheet as a lot of the prats on here who have been going on about 'embarrassing' and 'joke of a club' and all the rest since the transfer window opened, but this one just has me truly shaking my head.

This just can't be the answer to any of the questions we have.

It's more than embarrassing.

It's just not right at all - a piss-take on several levels.
Yup, it’s a shocking move and sadly seems to be true and probably will happen

Wonder why the club don’t try to pursue Mitrovic. He would be obtainable I imagine and would offer far more than Arnatovic
