‘He’s Arrived’ ‘Too Much Sauce’ ‘Worth Every Penny!!!’ Fans On Social Media Hail Arsenal Ace After Starring In Comeback Win

Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe scored with two sublime free-kicks as the Gunners came from 2-1 down to beat Vitoria Guimaraes in the Europa League yesterday evening.

The Ivorian international hasn’t performed to expectations since his £72m arrival from Lille in the summer, but last night’s brace demonstrated what the 24-year-old is truly capable of.


Supporters on Twitter have been praising Pepe’s performance and are hopeful that his starring role against Vitoria will be the catalyst he needs to kickstart his season:

There has been a noticeable change in Pepe’s form since the international break. Despite missing a gilt-edged chance against Sheffield United on Monday night, he was still one of the best players on the pitch.

The Ivorian followed that up with his decisive contribution in the victory at the Emirates yesterday, and fans will be hoping he puts in another good display when Arsenal face Crystal Palace on Sunday evening.
