This vs 80m Maguire I don't know which is worse
He also put you on ignore.You gotta give it to Emery and his evaluating skills, the guy was spot on about almost every Arsenal player: binned Wilshere and Welbeck, benched Özil, promoted Saka, didn't rate Pepe from the get-go, etc.
They have enough bums on their bench alreadyCould see PSG come in for him in january if he doesnt get enough gametime. Cheeky 40m bid
If you put Pepe into that squad I would imagine he'd look better than he does in the present one which is worse pretty much to a man and certainly worse at the managerial level.On Overmars, @Tir Na Nog look at this...what a player, probably only Pires is a better wide man for us in the Wenger era...this is what I meant by pace, Pepe doesn't look this threatening...and I can't tell if that is down to style or just not having it...shame as Nico does have tremendous dribbling ability, doesn't seem to be able to use it correctly, whether his fault or the teams...
...also that pass by Petit around 1:10 is amazing.
we are killing this young lad with typical arsenal style. He isnt to be blamed for raul and edu getting a huge bung. He is a good lad who has been playing like an unwelcome refugee kid invited to dinner. He has to be made to feel he belongs. Some small games he should be leading our line. We should build a team around him and give him the chance to express himself and not be stuck on the wing while our entire strategy goes through the other wing.
At least he has talent and youth and fearlessness.. height and pace .. lets give him a chance.. we dont have anything else

It's a confidence thing ultimately, isn't it?
I think everyone agrees he has amazing creativity and elite level dribbling. Coupled with his pretty good ball striking ability - he is our best and potentially only hope of unlocking this current dearth of incision and goals.
It's just not coming off at the moment. I don't know if it's the pressure, the language or whatever. But we desperately need him to come alive.
****ing Gary Neville I swear he’s owed a two footer in the shins . How he got away with that crap for so long
He played in an era where "letting your opponent know your there" was part of the game, luckily for him...plus United were the FA's team back then which also helped him and Beckham's great workrate on the side, Gary was a lucky bastard when you think about it!
He was the weakest player in Ferguson's great United team and the weakest player in England's "Golden Generation" imo, if I was managing against a team he played in I would always target him...goatee gimp, that he is.
