'Pepe is making it easy for Arteta to leave him out' - Arsenal's record signing goes missing far too often, says Parlour

Nicolas Pepe is making it easy for Mikel Arteta to leave him out of his team, according to Ray Parlour, who says Arsenal's record signing goes missing far too often.

Pepe became the most expensive player in Arsenal's history when he completed a £72 million ($95m) move to Emirates Stadium from Lille in August 2019.

The Ivory Coast international had built up a reputation as a deadly winger with an impressive record for goals and assists in Ligue 1, but has yet to show the same kind of form in English football.
