Can we have a poll with some price points and then send the results to Woody?

Not particularly fussed about Shaw who has shown problems under different management too. The Martial thing sucks but what can we do.
Jose is simply too short sighted to be a long term manager. It has never happened anywhere else and I really can't see it here either.
Seconded.
Woodward cant allow it surely. Next thing we will be selling Pogba and signing Noble
I'm already onto the phase where I pretend to myself he's not just some bang average mid table player who'll sack it all in weeks after joining us.
That's entering into dangerous territory though.
Dictating to a manager what he can or cannot do. Especially if you are then going to judge them on results.
So Jose has personally gone to Austria to watch a player who has played in the EPL for 5 years and has played against Jose’s teams 10+ times. Are we supposed to believe that he’s going to make a £50m(
) decision based on how he plays against Russia?

Maybe there's a Mozart gig on
True, but bearing in mind some of his signings havent been successful, it would have to be done for the sake and the future of the club. This is a manager who usually self destructs by the 3rd season anyway, who sets Manchester United up not to concede and lose games. Ridiculous, if we sign this guy then we are accepting we are cr*p
Not a fan of this signing but once a month is better than what Lingard and Mata are producing just now.
No, he has been wearing same clothes since FA Cup final.
Just remembered this quote from Jose at the start of the season.
Arnautovic is a far better player than some fans on here think he is.
Was impressed with him at Werder Bremen and was highly surprised to see him at Stoke thereafter.
The main reason, in my opinion, that Stoke got relegated is because they lost Arnautovic.
I don't get the love for Martial in this thread also. What's he done all season?

Is Golovin not still a bit of a wonder kid? Maybe the young midfielder we’re interested in.
That’s if he’s even there scouting which he’s probably not.

This is a joke, isn't it? Please tell me it's a wind up!
Must be.
He's doing the exact same pose. He must be permanently stuck like that
You allow a manager to make his own decisions though or fire him if you don't believe he can make the right decisions.
That seems only fair to me.
I doubt it is.
Too much smoke now.
The Perisic rumour started similarly last season.
This is depressing news if true. Sky are reporting it too. How can we be contenders for anything with dross like Arnatovic!!
I agree 100% with you. If I was the CEO I would have fired him. Honestly, not because he didnt deliver any trophies, but because the standard and the style of performances is not acceptable.In addition I would have turned to Enrique, whom with the likes of Lukaku, Martial, Sanchez, Pogba, Mata and Rashford at his disposal would have taken us to a higher level
You know, we have a manager who signed Steve Sidwell, Khalid Boulharouz, Falcao even though he was crap for us, among other wonderful signings, Why should we be surprised?
In the meantime Liverpool will be lining up with:
Fabinho- Keita- Fekir
Mane-Firminho-Salah
This cracked me more than it should.On the bright side, it seems we are about to sign one of best Portugal prospects.
He seems to have flourished since he was played as a striker, 9 goals and 5 assists in 16 starts as a CF is not too shabby.
50m doesn't seem too insane, given his value to West Ham. We do need more goals and a solid back-up for Lukaku, not many players will prefer a part-time role, but Arnautovic is pretty versatile in attack, so he would still play a lot of games - while also being handed a nice wage bump + actually playing for trophies rather than relegation.
Of course we already have Martial who could be that option in attack, but Mourinho maybe prefers some different attributes than his as a CF.

Di Marzio deserves a leathering for fueling the flames of this potential shit fest, Arnautovic has played for Stoke and West Ham for a reason, he’s Shite.
Calm down everybody, according to press Jose came to Croatia in March 2017, to watch Perišić, against Ujraine, funny, Perišić didn't play that day, two yellow cards in previous game. Someone should have told Jose that. God knows who he is watching.
Mourinho said then: "I'm here to enjoy weather and to see my friends. You don't have to travel to see players."

He'd actually start in our team
Indeed. He is completely useless in the air and regularly gets dominated by players half his size (probably because he mostly looks like he doesn't care). Not sure he is the physical presence up front that Mourinho apparently wants as cover for Lukaku.
I would take Arnautovic for 20 million, think he's a pretty good player. Anything more and I don't think it would be worth it, especially considering his age.
Agree with you on all but the very last line. I'm partial to Martial and think he has more potential than Arnautovic ever showed at the same age. In any case, they both bring in very different skill sets .
If we do sign him, I think a lot will be impressed. Classic case of underrating a player because of which club he used to play for.
The overreaction in here, deary me.
He had a white Adidas t shirt on when I saw him on the weekend. The kind you wear when you hit up JD Sports and see a clearance sale.
Always on his fecking phone though!
Did Alaba play today?
Golovin looks a player.
Mourinho is working for Russian TV during the World Cup yeah? He’ll just be checking up on the Russia team probably.
“Mourinho's (well hidden) eyes were also turned towards two players of the Russian national team: Aleksandr Golovin of CSKA Moscow and Fëdor Smolov, Krasnodar striker.’’
If they were well hidden, how does anyone know where they turned?
