"I see him as good with a team that plays all in red and likes to put wingers on the side of their weaker feet."
Those are the quotes, which does fit Arsenal’s profile despite playing cluedo.

If that’s true, Seems he’s entertaining a move on.

Massive shame if we can't get Pepe, he was the one winger I really wanted. I'll have to hype up someone else now. With the way Emery likes to play though I think he'll probably want a left footed winger, someone that will cut inside and leave space for the full back. My somewhat realistic Wishlist would be:
Out
Cech, Ramsey, Welbeck and Jenkinson (contracts expiring)
Lich - Unless we don't sign a back up rb.
Elneny - £10m
Mustafi - £20m
Monreal - £7m
Ospina - £3m
Martinez - £2m, unless we don't sign a back up rb.
Suarez or Mkhi
In
Pope - £10m
Mandi - £20m
Tierney - £20m
Aarons - £15m
RW - maybe Under or Chukwueze, hopefully Pepe.

Pepe was always a pipe dream since I don't think the Club paying north of 60M for him. We missed the boat last year when he could have gone for half that fee.
Gelson Martins at Monaco (on loan from Atletico) is worth keeping an eye on. He looks really good so far.

Even Bayern fans, who he's strongly linked to, say Bayern missed the boat on him 'cause he'll be too expensive and thus join one of the financial top clubs.
I mean Bayern are already flexing their muscle publicly saying they will spend big, but knowing them they will rather go big on Kai Havertz as a German talent and then add Julian Brandt for his relatively low release clause if they think they need another attacker on top of Havertz, Coman, Gnabry and Davies.
They might do it the other way round if Bayer wants to keep Havertz for another season, go for Brandt first as a bargain but quality option and then go for Havertz in 20/21 after they have a better verdict on Coman's health as well as Gnabry and Davies' quality.

Don't think either Pepe or Gelson are that good tbh.

Atletico are almost definitely going to be selling him as well.

Pepe is really good and still has a lot of upside. Gelson is worth keeping an eye on.

Pepe is good but he is being rated way too high. Gelson has no end product or a decent standard of basic game beyond speedy dribbling in straight lines and doesn't even show potential for improvement in that department.

That 2nd realistic wish list would be something I'd love. Pretty much covers all the aspects the squad is missing. Apart from GK.

Robert Skov of FC Copenhagen
Has 21 goals in 23 appearances plus 6 assists, 22 year old plays as a right winger but is left footed.
Probably one of the best left foots in the modern game.

Dude, have you seen Gelson once with Monaco?
.The guy had 3 goals and one assist his first 4 games and is obviously talented. As I said earlier, he is worth keeping an eye on.

No, seriously. I have seen him play enough times and stats without context are not worth much. He has electric pace on the run and incredible acceleration. But you can tell he struggles to keep control of his dribbles and can't direct his runs with or without the ball unless there's straight free space ahead. That can work in a lower level team who get space down the sides from breaks in play.
You can see and evaluate players in small details with imagination.
You don't believe me but for example, Bakayoko was someone everyone clamouring for with his performance for Monaco and he, on paper, fit a profile that we could definitely do with at the time. His stats and reputation all over indicated he was going to be a good player. Then you go to youtube and watch him closely. He looked to me to be incredibly rigid and heavy in his body movement. He couldn't move his legs smoothly enough and in balance. On the ball, it looked even worse. You could immediately tell he'd struggle in the PL in a matter of seconds and wouldn't be able to replicate his performance in a better quality team in a much more faster and intense competition.
With Nicolas Pepe, you can see that he has a unique ball control ability and skill on it in short spaces but not great. He understands space and timing very well in the final third with a good technique in his shot. But his body language and physical application seems a bit off. I get the feeling he'd get caught out often on the ball and not make the utmost effort either offensively or defensively. He seems to me like lacking in physical and mental intensity.
I'm not saying he is **** and isn't a good player with some upside but people are going overboard because of his stats.
as long as RVP is alive, the best left foot will be between him and Messi..
We should take a punt on Skov

@carlito'sway To add to that a bit and talk about Chukwueze....out of the options I have seen so far, he seems to be the most naturally gifted technically but the interesting thing is despite his superb pacy dribbling and foot movement in any situation he is able to maintain his handle or direction on the ball in any gear without losing his head. It reminds me Robben. He is someone you could possibly develop into something else. And La Liga is a pretty high level.
