Stop lying for no reason, weirdo.That is exactly how Saka started and got a spot in the team. That is how ESR got into the team.

He’s quickly becoming one of the worst posters on the forum. Tried to give him the benefit of the doubt but there’s no stopping El Paragrapho once he’s on a roll.First, you say Arteta should drop Pepe because of his performance, but now, Auba shouldn't be dropped with even worse performances and you will just ignore your own argument for dropping Pepe, and you bring logic into that
If you wanna have a dumb discussion where you override your own arguments, please, drop logic if that's the case.
This forum just keeps giving, LOVE IT!

Pepe is not in a position to prove himself because he would need to play constantly over a period of time, which never happened since he joined the club.Whether Auba should be dropped depends on whether you think Lacazette or Martinelli or anyone else will do a better job........... I personally think Auba should be dropped but others will disagree. But I think it is hard to argue playing Pepe provides more for us than what Saka/ESR/Martinelli/Willian can give us. Right now Pepe has yet to prove himself to be more than a luxury signing.
And what was wrong with this performance? He wasn't bad neither was he excellent. It's not like the manager did him any favour by deploying a Midfield trio of Ceballos, Xhaka and Elneny. Inspite of Bellerin he still played ok and put himself in some good position and was unlucky to not score and Auba was even worse than Pepe but you aren't saying anything about that.Yeah, just when I thought he was starting to show some form and become a decent player for us, there's this. Looked like the shocking Pepe of old, really can't complain about Arteta not playing him continuously when he puts in performances like this..
You are something else, at this point I think you’re just doing it to spite @Macho either that or you’ve genuinely lost your mind.
El Paragrapho Almost as bad as paelladyce I got covid, mate, with so much time at home I inevitably end up seeing what you mad men are on about here!He’s quickly becoming one of the worst posters on the forum.

Of course he was bad. The team selection stuff is just excuses, it was against olympiakos FFS, and as pointed out, that's the same players Saka broke out with, or ESR. Really weak excuse making nothing less, that.And what was wrong with this performance? He wasn't bad neither was he excellent.

I bet you'd be over the moon when Willian has his customary nothing assist and use it as proof why he should be a starter over Pepe.

I used to think that, but I don't think it's the biggest factor with him. I wouldn't say he's a merely a 'moments' player, but his best bits are usually great moments that don't really require rhythm. He's done well far more often than not lately from the bench and that shows that he's not some weak minded basket case, so I think you'd have to put last night down to just whatever. There doesn't have to be a reason for a nothing display every time he has one.He’s clearly a rhythm player. What he’s shown is when he’s given a few starts in a row he begins to deliver. Too bad he’s then hooked for no reason.
Comparing the opportunities Auba and Pepe get from the manager is silly anyway.
Auba is a legitimately proven top 10 in the world goalscorer over the best part of the decade. Call it favouritism or whatever you want but he's got a hell of a lot of credit in the bank and rightfully so.
Pepe's situation is totally different. I want to see him get more game time but he doesn't have the track record nor has he earnt the status Auba has in our side.
He's been here pushing 2 years and yeah he's been somewhat unfortunate this year in terms of opportunities. Still, the reality is he's put up Gervinho level numbers.
Gervinho - 46 PL appearances 9 Goals 9 Assists.
Pepe 51 PL appearances 10 Goals 6 Assists
That's not a record that's going to get you walking into the side to be honest.

He's been here pushing 2 years and yeah he's been somewhat unfortunate this year in terms of opportunities, so let's factor that in.
Still, the cold hard truth of the matter is he's put up Gervinho level numbers at Arsenal.
Gervinho - 46 PL appearances 9 Goals 9 Assists.
Pepe 51 PL appearances 10 Goals 6 Assists
