Yeah you've said it yourself "here and there", not once more than two matches in a row, five minutes in the last five matches now. We've had the discussion about Pepe's treatment here a dozen times already, if you want to convince yourself he's been given a fair shake I'm not going to debate you.
Not listening to Arteta by the way. Same bloke who said about so many players they're important parts of his plans then sells or release them in a second.
Pépé has been treated like shit from Tet, and I really feel hes stifled his progress and indirectly the manager has hindered the teams prospects last season(and before?) by doing it. I just don’t think bringing Martinelli on should bear too much(or any) connection to this issue.
I’m worried about another wasted acquisition as well, and wary of Artetas hollow words. It’s not a reliable and sincere proxy for what’s going on but in this case recently just taking it at face value
