Pepe is a raw player adjusting to the PL. the price tag makes fans judge him harsher. Maybe rightly so, maybe not, but far too early to start digging him out and writing him off.
Xhaka on the other hand is a completecunt. He’s the captain, but I’m pretty sure I saw him duck McT’s shot that went in, give a stupid foul away on the edge of your box at 1-1, get his customary pointless booking in the centre circle and generally play like a complete plum. Work out the worst player on a pro-rata basis in terms of seniority, experience etc and it’s easily him. Making him captain suggests Emery would rather just get the sack now than wait to not have his contract renewed in June.

Accurate comment although I don't agree with the last statement. Emery is competent enough to deliberately set himself sacked

*isn't competent enough
Very typically Arsenal the way the Pepe transfer has transpired.
It's what can happen when you gamble rather than pay that little bit extra. It could end up being a monumental waste of money. I'd be worried he looks nothing like the player he did at Lille.

He's up against far better defenders / teams in the PL than he was In France. Should have paid the £10m more and got Zaha who is proven in the PL

Zaha is suited to Crystal Palace, that is his level
Why on Earth would we sign him?
Pepe may not work out but why people are pining after Zaha I'll never know

crystal palace is a higher level than Lille ffs
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And perhaps Pepe will flop but it doesn't make going for Zaha any more worth it when we hope to be significantly better than Crystal Palace!
