Struggled to make an impact tonight but France look very strong defensively. They won’t be conceding many goals. Looks that way Austria pushed them hard but couldn't get much in the way of chances

Did he actually run when he came on? He just seemed to stand around throwing his arms in the air. He didn’t exactly bust a gut for his team.

He's never one you'd accuse of working his socks off for the team.

As already stated by others, if nothing else becomes available give Arnie pay per play with huge bonuses for goals & assists - he has an affinity with SCFC & SJW - he’ll get a shed load more goals than Maee, Ennis & Vidigal

In the 89th min Austria, losing 0-1, broke down the left hand side in a promising attacking move with a chance to get the ball in the box with most Austrian players bombing towards the pen area. When it panned out on the replay, Arnie was still in his own half literally walking into the opposition half as the attack came to nothing. The guy is a complete asshole as well as fantastic talent of a footballer. What a waste.

Anyone wanting Arnie back is insane even if was even remotely believable!!!
We need young up and coming players with a point to prove, see the opposite last night, him strolling round the pitch moaning his bag off.
Thanks for the fleeting memories Arnie, but its over mate.....

If you check the replay Annie was failed as he left the box and could not get back in time for the attack

He was actually fouled earlier in the play and could not keep up with the play / fell well behind it. The guy has had an exceptional career - he’s not the hardest worker off the ball, granted - but do me a favour. He was probably the 2nd best player we had during our spell in the Prem, behind only Nzonzi.

Why would he leave that for pay per play? It's not going to happen.

I genuinely don't get the hatred for a player that is most definitely one of the best players at the club in the last 50 years.
Baffling.
We can't afford him anyway, thank god, because people don't deserve him. Looking forward to Ennis up top with the ball ending up 10 metres away from him after he attempts to control it, but he runs a lot...

He was a brilliant player and I loved having him at Stoke, that doesn't change for me, but the truth is he is a complete arsehole. He wasn't even fouled but he thought it was more important to be on a strop than help his teammates try and get an equaliser. He was bone idle when he came on in that game. He plays only when he wants to play. Mourinho probably got it right describing him as 'a great talent but having the mind of a child' The fantasy of bringing him back is just that.

Met a West Ham supporting colleague yesterday. Got onto football and he said that Arnie was the best WHU striker in the last 20 years.
