Nicolas Pepe: The Nutmeg Express!

[hydrofluoric acid]

If Arteta never plays him because of a red card that would be insanely petty, you should be above that as a manager.

I think Emery and Arteta svoid playing him because they dont rate him. I dont believe Arteta will build his opinion on the red card but its just another thing for Arteta to not rate him.

He needed an excuse to not play him anyways and Pepe stupidly handed it to him on a silver platter.

It doesn’t matter now, Pepe is done, Arteta reads twitter/AM clearly so Lacazette is done, Özil not in the picture.

Arteta is slowly losing people to blame tbh. You wonder at what point questions would be asked of him.

It was his first PL game where he wasn't scared to play. His set piece delivery is poor, but he was looking good on the ball. Numbers will eventually come and they are not that important at this stage

That's positive. I'm still very confident that if Reiss gets a sustained run he'll lock down a spot in the team, but he needs to continue improving and being brave.

 

[<<reed>>]

Hope Ceballos batters him in training!

 

[samshere]

He was the only attacking player trying to do something in the first half. Willian was utter dross as usual and Auba performed his familiar disappearing act. And the red card was soft as feck.

 

[juice man]

He's done here. We've seen enough now to know its not going to get much better. Need to work on an exit strategy before it’s too late.

 

[truth_hurts]

I don't doubt his ability, I doubt his mentality. A dumb, confidence player isn't one that we can be placing hope in. He's royally ****ed himself today. Made Arteta's mind up for him.

 

[Jae]

Disappointed. Might as well have just authorised his own transfer there. I like him as a player but I can't see a way back for him now.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Watching the accident again even tho was soft red but there was nothing to be mad about Alioski was bit aggressive but that's about it can't believe how easy players lose thier head that easily

 

[GDeep™]

His red just makes it hard to fight his corner now.

I do.

Makes the decision to sign him even more baffling. It’s like Raul thought himself to be a football expert and was splashing big on a gem. How do you spend £72m on a player who your manager doesn’t like?

 

[say yes]

****ing idiot. No excuse for that. And the last thing he needed this season.

Hope Arteta gives him another chance; he’s our only multi-threat attacker.

Also just had one good season in his life at age of 25. And that season stats are mostly masked over with a bunch of penalties.

Signing Pepe for 72 M is probably one of the main reasons Raul got sacked.

 

[GDeep™]

Don’t see how he turns this around now. Too much against him.

Does anyone know what Alioski actually did to him?? I mean, apart from ending his Arsenal career.

Why you got drill bars in your signature?

Rumours that he yanked his hair

What kind of multi-threat? He can't dribble past defenders, his ball control and first touch is about the worst in the team, he can't pass accurately, his football IQ is low, his work rate is poor, and he doesn't know how to defend. The only thing i give him is his shot.

If he never plays again because he has been useless then that's more than fair.

Get Martinelli and Saka in there.
