what bugs me is how did he ever get  to a £72.000.000 price tag ?  as he must be one of the top 3 uselessest players we have ever had !! and the biggest  wast of money

Nicholas Pepe was one if not the youngest most prolific striker in the French league before joining Arsenal. He was averaging not less than 25 goals in the French league.

Because Raul Sanllehi got bribed by Pepe’s agent to take that deal. That’s why he got fired when the Kroenkes found out

which goes to show how elite the French league is. balogun did well in France.  let's see him repeat that in Monaco. I have my doubts

it's the same league, but I doubt if he will as well

but how many did he score in that league last year

Based on articles from reputable publications like The Athletic I am pretty sure that’s what happened. During Raul’s tenure as director the club relied mostly on agents instead of scouting reports to recruit new players. In Pepe’s case Napoli had agreed a fee of around 40 million but we came in and paid way above market value for him. Emery wanted Zaha who would have cost us a little more than what we paid for Pepe. Later on Kroenke had their right hand man (London attorney whose name I forgot) do an investigation and they discovered that Raul was receiving kickbacks from the agents. So Raul was fired and we stopped working with those agents like Kia Joorabchian. Kia got pissed and persuaded his client Omar Hutchinson to join Chelsea

yeah he's bin there Dun that ,  can't be arsed doing it no more !!

Whether or not we got money from the transfer is not as important as the fact that we are no longer paying a big salary to a player who never plays.

well it was a scammed transfer dat is all i can say.. he wasn't good enof and according to an article i read he wasn't even supposed to be an arsenal player.. the agent and those in arsenal knew what they did

sly affia na ekwo-ekwo...

maybe you need to ask Sanlehi and co whom I suspect make money out of the deal which is why they quickly accept

So you all thought Pepe was shit ey? So, what were the scouts looking at when they went for him? Who were they scouting?
You see, Pepe is one guy I like so much. But I ddnt even know him much before he came to Arsenal. And no one will deny how good A well-confident Pepe can be. He did well below expectations, but what can u expect? Coming with such price tag, playing amongst some of our players who were rebels, system change. Some cannot just adapt and it is safe to say he wasn't ever gonna adapt to the type of system in Arsenal. I just wish him the best of luck.

I see pepe more as a lazy player who is not trying enough to work hard and step up his game. 

Look at players like Viera, Nketia and Smith Rowe, they are all pushing for 1st eleven but same cannot be said with Pepe. 

I think he got carried away with his price tag and big player mentality.
