West Ham 3-0 Bolton: Record signing Marko Arnautovic shows his class against Championship bottom men

Daily Mail | September 19, 2017

It was the Marko Arnautovic show at the London Stadium as West Ham’s club record signing toyed with Championship bottom boys Bolton in the Carabao Cup.

A month to the day since his sending off at Southampton, Arnautovic went some way to winning back the trust of manager Slaven Bilic, securing two assists on his home debut.

Bilic had told his £24million signing he had some making up to do after his elbow at St Mary’s in August. Evidently, he listened.
