His ball control was far from impeccable at times, in fact he made a habit of overhitting his first touch, playing poorly-judged passes and running the ball out of play in his early days with us. His shooting was also pretty wayward to be honest. Great player and more than capable at the top level but nowhere near our “most talented”. He had some big inconsistencies in his game. He did, his finishing was pretty piss poor tbh. He’d miss so many chances and then score the harder one. Lovely player though but just not quite got it for the best. If he could finish he’d be at Real Madrid because even with his touch, his strength and directness gets him into positions, it was just the finish that let him down. Yes I made a lighthearted joke about him giving his boots away and almost got lynched The game against us he missed chance after chance its only because our defence / team was so bad he got the chances to score when he had already bottled it from the abuse.

So if they were trying to sell him anyway why bother with a transfer request

Arnie's brothers at it again I think people may have more respect if they just came out and said we want to move for more money instead of full on bollocks.

I don't care how good a player he was (and he was) and I don't care how right he was about our ambition (and he was) the fact is, he was, is and remains an absolute colossal weapon. A tool downing, injury feigning, greedy, lying weapon. As big a shit cunt as the shit cunts who followed after he left.
I recall him with all the fondness I recall the shingles rash I had on my cock and balls in 2006.

He was an arsehole in the making from the very beginning, all the talent but.....

I have no doubt we'd have stayed up with him in the side, but when you look at his behaviour over the last few years was it possible/worth it to keep him? This must be his 4th transfer request in 3 years which have lead to 2 new contracts, 1 move and whatever happens here. If we'd have stayed up of course it would have been worth it.

www.claretandhugh.info/west-ham-receive-improved-bid-for-arnautovic/Reports that West Ham have received a new €40 million offer for Marko Arnautovic are €15 million short of the reality
In fact Shanghai have upped their bid by just over €5 million to €25 million for the striker.
A highly placed West Ham insider speaking to Claret and Hugh via Email confirmed they had received a new take it or leave it offer of 25m Euros (£22.5m).
The senior source said “I wish the offer was 40m euros ! They have gone to 25m euros and said take it or leave it.
The players/the manager want him out, so we will probably let him go despite the bad deal that it is”
A deal for £22.5m would mean Stoke City gets around £500,000 due to the sell on clause of 20% on the profit from the original purchase of just over £20m. A further £1m would be paid to FIFA as a 5% solidarity payment leaving a net income of the transfer of £21m.

I'm a bit surprised that he's willing to drive a coach and horses through his reputation at every club he's ever been at, to the point where he'll be pretty much reviled now, just so he can move from wildly, unthinkably rich to obscenely rich?
He and his brother seem very....interesting characters.

Wow .. what a windfall a full 500K ... sure it's all honest and above board in avoiding the pay-on clause!

Since then it's been a case of looking for the biggest pay packet.

Am so pleased that after paying him a massive signing-on fee and then such a little profit that the Might Hammers with be out of pocket. My heart bleeds - they deserve each other.

I'm probably biased cos I bloody loved his time here. After Steino I can't think of anyone I enjoyed watching more. I know that's neither here nor there, but I just can't hate him like many do.

In fairness, I'm not even saying he's a better player than Fuller or quite a few others. With Arnie it was the whole deal, the sulks and the idiocy included. I just found him fascinating and massively entertaining.

Can we now put to bed that he was undersold. I see what you’re saying but then you see a 1 in 4 or 5 striker like Ayoze Perez allegedly going for 30M today and you still struggle to remember the last time we got top banana for a player. I just don’t think we’re very good at it. A new behind the scenes broom is now laughably long overdue.

Nonzi running his contact down and went before the market exploded Begovic the same Arnoutivic and Shaqiri who wouldn't have signed without that relegation release clause.
