Arnautovic was the best CF we've had in years.
Only better one in last 25 years was Kanoute.

Arnie is only interested in ££££ and BTW, why have Spuds sold Trippier on a cheap of £21.7M? thought he worth £40M? Bad business lol
"I am always correct", but "if I am wrong", please refer to the first phrase.

Ashton was very, very over rated. Too slow to be a top CF.

Defoe did not fo much for us. His best work was after he left.

Arnautovic was unplayable at times.

He is not a Centre forward. He was a left sided forward.

One up front formation he WAS the CF.

He played as a lone striker but that was not his position. Anyway, he was a decent player no doubt but we have signed better in Haller and I would put Fornals as a serious upgrade to Noble.

So based on those two alone and for your original question, yes I am more optimistic.

I think most of us are very optimistic about the new season, you on the other hand are a cunt so you'll be your usual predictable self.
