Against Manchester United it was recorded that Nicholas Pepe lost the ball for the Gunners for a record 17 times the poorest by any player in this current EPL campaign and that's quite a bummer, there has been recent tweets from the Chelsea faithfuls on Twitter rambling on how lucky it wasn't Chelsea who signed him and it makes me wonder. One thing that will always remain clear is that as far as the transfer market continues to be crazy, the price tags that are placed on players will continue to affect them especially when it comes to the fact that a player transferred from another league into a much more difficult league If you ask me, 72 million is insane and when you come for such an amount of money you are expected to hit the ground running whether you are new to the league or not fans would instantly want to see you dazzle.

However football doesn't work this way for a player to obviously shine there are so many things that would the put in place and the first would be the manager's tactics on the field of play and when a player continues to be alien with a coaches formation or tactics it would become difficult for him to shine on the field of play despite the transfer fee that such player came for, how about the factor of the weather? The climate change or even the pitch? as well as formation and the chemistry between players? All these basically requires enormous change for a player to blend with and the only reason why it is different from some other exceptional players is if they're so lucky enough to be familiar with the system or position which their new coach would be playing them with.

However I do believe it's written in the Stars for Nicholas Pepe and why is this? exceptional dribblers in the EPL have always been known to make a mark take a look at Wilfried Zaha, Cristiano Ronaldo, Eden Hazard. These guys dazzled and are still dazzling in the EPL because of the fast-paced type of League in which the EPL is. Dribbling skills and pace comes in handy and no matter the formation or tactic you played in your former team you are bound to do well when you possess speed and skill on the ball and that is what is mainly the strength of Nicolas pepe. He has managed to definitely Showcase a little bit of what he can do on the ball but I definitely feel the only thing he lacks in him is a little bit of direction and purpose and that is why it seems he might do so poorly for a long period of time but this isn't true.

The truth is that the Emirates Stadium is becoming too hot for Nicholas Pepe to handle and why is this? he definitely needs to score goals to have confidence and when you look at this scenario and the mood whenever he is on the ball you always get a feeling that the fans in the Emirates Stadium thinks he's going to fail and this is really not cool. For the first time when I watched him I saw a mini Ronaldo that seems young, raw and not processed to unlock his potential another thing is that I feel Unai Emery might be the wrong manager to play under for Pepe and more of a manager like Pep Guardiola and all these factors should always be in consideration when a player is making a move to another team. So in my opinion the fans at the Emirates Stadium wouldn't help Nicolas Pepe because as much as he continues to be under the pressure to perform he might keep making mistakes instead of enjoying his game.

In conclusion Pepe is young and Strong when you take a look at Christian pulisic there are so many disadvantages as to why he might not perform first of all is the agility and the strength and despite his skills he might flop at Stamford Bridge, howbeit Pepe is different. He possesses all the ingredients to do well in the Premier League but currently we have to consider the tactics and the formation as well as the pruning and help he might or might not be getting from the manager at the Emirates Stadium and this decides it. He's a kind of player that would need space to perform as well as showcasing his skills and also space to make something of the end products which would result in goals and currently he is not getting that at the Emirates Stadium. Mind you he is not a forward or a box-to-box midfielder or your complete number 9 and so he shouldn't be expected to score as much goals but make impact and that is what the coach at the Emirates Stadium should be currently working on.
