Alexandre Lacazette has backed Nicolas Pepe to shine at Arsenal now that he's had time to adapt to the rigours of Premier League football.
Pepe arrived from Lille last summer in a £72 million move, making him the Gunners' record signing.
Per Goal's Charles Watts, Lacazette said after Arsenal's 4-0 win over Newcastle United on Sunday:
"I used to say we need to be patient with him. He is still young, he came from another league and it is always different.
"The Premier League is the hardest league in the world I think, so you have to be nice with new players like him.
