Looks like it's might going to be an interesting season in more than one way!

He's a little bit of a cock isn't he. Hopefully he has something in his boots, certainly sounds like he has.

He's been branded the white Balotelli, I've always been a fan of Balotellis antics, so I'm sure I'll find this guy a pisser.1

Not sure Hughes can do the same for Arnautovic. We'll find out though. Could run into a situation where he think she's bigger than the club. Actually, I'd put at higher than 50/50.

He's clearly a cock of the highest order but I'd rather watch him than Dean Whitehead.
I trust Hughes to manage him, Pulis wouldn't have any idea how to deal with him in Dinosaurworld.com

He's probably been out all night on the lash and nailing mega fit birds, give the guy a break!!!

If he approaches playing for us in the right way and can harness some of that mentality in the right way on the pitch... Hughes has given himself a challenge in trying to manage this guy. I wasnt a pulis fan but if Hughes can manage him as well as Pulis managed Fuller for the majority of his time with us, we could be onto something good here
Potential is fun

As said if this guy play's like people seem to think he can, he could be the next Ric and a real legend. As with all these characters it could back fire massively but it's a damn sight more entertaining to watch than a Whitehead.
Some will love him and some hate him. For now i've seen nothing of his that isn't just daft or a bit over the top... How boring would life be without these characters ?
So long as he does it with the ball, i'm more than happy to "turn a blind eye" (watch intently and piss myself..) with this chap.

A combination of Balotelli & Robin Friday....Saturday's at The Brit might just be that little bit more interesting!

Does anyone know how good he is on the pitch? It is clear he is Balotelli off the pitch, but has he got the raw footballing skills to back it up?

The best part is, I'm sure he doesn't drink and I read somewhere that he trains harder than most players so he is naturally a bit of a loon. If he can produce the goods on the pitch and doesn't come out with any " I earn more in a day " crap then I couldn't care less if he paints Whelan's dog bright pink whilst doing the ' lambada ' around the car park.

It looked more like he was bored to tears and was looking to see who hadn't turned their phone off at a press conference. This has a reason. In the nationalteam they have rules. For example: No phones during a press conference or have to be on time to training and so on. Otherwise they have to cash 100 Euro in the pot. In this case the presitent of the ÖFB has forgot to switch the phone off and David Alaba said:" This costs Mr. President!" Alaba is the man to collect the money.

If Arnie and JP got together on a night out it would be mayhem.

Is it just me or does he seem a bit, errrrrrr, challenged?
In a Forest Gump kind of way. Nothing too serious.....just a slight lack.
Watching that clip, the vacant gaze at the end does make me wonder.....

Liam Lawrence was widely considered slightly less than a genius and he didn't serve us too badly. He even injured himself playing with his dog!
The only real concern was the racing in his car, but several footballers have fallen foul of driving laws. Guess it's the almost unlimited money to but supercars with.

Plus, I work in a respectable position and am considered good at my job by my bosses and peers... But have found myself struggling to keep my eyes open at many a meeting! Maybe he trained his bollocks off and after flying around Europe this last week it just got a bit too much for him???
