Fans all saying the same thing as Arnautovic extends lead as Serie A’s top scorer after Man Utd ended transfer pursuit
MARKO ARNAUTOVIC continued to show Manchester United what they missed out on as the Austrian scored his sixth Serie A goal of the season.
The Bologna ace, 33, was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford this summer to play under Erik ten Hag.
Arnautovic worked with Ten Hag at FC Twente and was a short-term option to solve a problem in the forward department.
However, fan backlash scuppered the deal and Arnautovic pledged his focus to Bologna.
And so far, Arnautovic is coming good on that pledge, scoring six in six Serie A games played.
His latest goal to keep him as the league's top scorer came in the 2-1 win over Fiorentina.

The ex-Stoke City and West Ham ace has scored in all league games bar one this season.
He fired a blank in the 2-0 loss to defending champions AC Milan.
His nearest rival in the scoring charts is Napoli hotshot Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who joined this summer, on four.
But Arnautovic's goalscoring form has left fans saying the same thing - maybe United messed up.

A fan said on Twitter: "Maybe, just maybe Manchester United made a mistake not to sign Marko Arnautovic.
Another said: "Not going to lie, Man Utd should have bought Marko Arnautovic. He’s too good for Bologna."
Arnautovic's form is also being seen as a reaction to United turning down the opportunity to sign him.
