Pepe didn't seem to know when to shield the ball and when to NOT rely on flicks and tricks to get past the more physical Premiere League players. Just couldn't adapt and I doubt he ever will
@charles PEPE DESERVES ANOTHER CHANCE. He was not a bad player, it was the price tag that hurt him most, his performances on the pitch were not terrible. It's actually in Arsenal's best interest to give him another chance. If he does well but Arsenal still want to move him on they're likely to get a better fee than what they could get now with all the bad press he gets for being a flop. Also the bad influences on Aubameyang and Lacazette are no longer in the club and Pepe could get his head down and focus on grabbing his chance to get back in the team with both hands.
Chose this over aftv parody 🤣
Pepe has been training hard recently, seems he wants to give it another go? I really see him as a false 9
Fringe players aka RN and EN both need a proper run in the side. Trying to deliver during intermittent cameo roles is virtually impossible. Think back to last season when GJ was injured and in came EN. He delivered in no uncertain terms. Benefitting from a proper run in the starting 11
Morning Charles!
Love the new channel but I miss the old theme tune
Reiss is clearly a talented player, but like Eddie, does he get enough minutes to develop? I see that both players love the club, but if I was in their position I would want to go somewhere with more guarantees on game time.
Nuno Tavarez one for the future or one for the transfer list? I think he has a lot of attacking potential. Defensively not the best but can that change as he is so young.
So arteta destroyed Pepe’s carrier ok because there are so many times the those called his favorite players have messed up n never played well in a game n yet kept on giving them chances ok why didn’t he gave Pepe the same treatment?
I thought Mari joined at the same time as Cedric in Jan 2020, which was before Covid break. Though we are still stuck with the ex Southampton defender on 100k pw. Amazing business model. in years to come business schools will use Arsenal as a case study on how not to run a business. I feel sorry Pepe, he had many fans at our club and under another boss, he may have been given a chance.
I think you got baited there Charles https://youtu.be/R4CDxkneQt4?t=869.
it’s unfortunate when you keep saying ‘as far as I understand’ you don’t have any sources, everything you get is from twitter. Stop being disingenuous to your following on YouTube. You’ve never ever had a scoop. Apart from patino cos it’s quite clear you know his agent
Partey needs to be sold to Saudi whilst we can
Thanks for using time stamps!!
I don't know if that guy has already commented but HIGH WATTAGE 🔥🔥🔥
Hello Charles,i thought the main reason for Folarin Balogun going on loan was to get him ready and mature for the Premiership! He has acquitted himself creditably in the French Elite League. Why are we considering selling him? We dont have an out and out striker,and he fits the bill. Tall, strong, good on the ball and great finishing, yet we keep hearing about him being sold! Why?
Pepe was part of a poor Arsenal team, and he was unable to raise his game. Very few players, except the likes of Saka, were playing well 2 – 3 years ago. Arsenal is a lot better now, and they are playing well. I believe Pepe should be given another chance. No one seems interested in buying him, and his wages are high, so we might as well make use of him.
Charles, Nelson is 23, going on 24 in December. I wouldn't call him a very young player at all. Compared to a lot of our squad he is older than many of the starters. So I'm really not sure of where you're coming from with this.
What do people think we could get in this summer?? £100m total?
If Reiss is staying, Pepe will be moved on.
I dont get the pepe situation at all.he seems to blame everyone except himself. I think he's a very lazy player. Who's not willing to change. He loses the ball doesn't track back .to get in a team you asked what do I have to do to get back in the team .but he doesn't do that .very lazy it's a shame really there's a player in there .but he doesn't try .he's a kidder player. Brilliant 👍 👏 again c.
Alright mr watts..what do you make of the green and blue re make kit..i love it..should be our away kit..❤
I wonder if Rice will worry about his price tag when he plays for Arsenal and it might affect his game like Pepe
Hi Charles I know it’s not transfer related 😨 but any updates on Gabriel Martinelli injury?
Hi Charles, quick question on Flo Balogun. Any idea why he is not with the USMNT for thr Gold Cup? Matt Turner has been playing but not Flo. Thanks.
Pepe was a good finisher with plenty of pace I always wondered why Mikel never used upfront, to see if he could have a more meaningful contribution there.
Holding,Elneny, Nketia, Runarsson, Taveres, Pepe, Lakonga. All of them should leave.
Stop with the hype around Nelson. Apart from the beautiful cameos he had, he's average at best and should be moved on alongside Nketiah and injury-riddled ESR. I do not understand how easy it was to move on Joe Willock not these bunch who've had their chance already and not perform to elite levels like Bukayo and Martineĺli. There's also need to make space the likes of Nwaneri and Lewis-Kelly.
Is Saliba fit now
Reisss. Most handsome player in the squad as well
Good day Charles,
Hope you doing well.
Wanted to ask, are we still signing players after we seal up Rice and Timber? Also, if Super MikArteta still continues with the 433 formation, I have a feeling we'll be seeing more of Rice playing that kinda Rodri role, with Havertz and Odegaard in front, even if Partey is in the squad.
What do you think?
If Kai Havertz a current flop is being signed, why not try Pepe, a current flop in a different position?
Pls is tchauomeni linked with arsenal?
Loving the direction of the channel Charles, keep up the good work 👍🏽👌🏽
Hi Charles, hope you are well. Question for your show. With Timber potentially coming in, how do you see the future of Ben White? Do you see him getting significantly less playing time this coming season?
I hope you read this question on your next video.
A friend of mine works for a sports clothing company, and he has the contacts of many characters some sponsored by them, some not. And yet he is still able to talk to them. Is it the same with the clubs? I imagine Jack Wilshere having Rice's number and helping with the communication with the player. This is just an example, but really, they often talk to each other directly right? Like City would've spoken to Kovasic before anything from the move happened.
@charles Thanks for the good job you are doing. I have a question. Do you think Arsenal have a reliable replacement for Saka in our current squad. I think that's the position I am most worried about as I believe Trossard and Nelson play better from the left. Thanks for your response
What have you felt has been different from the time you were working for Goal, and now? Are you able to speak more freely? Tell us about your adaptation to this new challenge.
If we don't sell, we risk having the same issue as Chelsea, with a group of players that is too big. How many players should we have entering next season?
If pepe can come in and improve I will be for it he's a player I really like skilled and was a good finisher
Hi charles …..love your videos….my qustion to you charles…every season we are linked to serj milonkovic savic but due to the price tag we hv alws backed out…now things hv changd hes available mere 35 million euros ….so are we going for him this season ….???????
Hi Charles if we loose xhaka and Partey and with the arrival or havertz do you think arteta could play a different formation with 2 attacking midfielders and 1 holding
Pepe was a shocking one trick pony ! Always cutting back on his left foot, even if he was through on goal. Shocking buy lost Raul Saneiri his job
Thank you very much mr Charlles❤️
Hi Charles! why is Declan Rice deal not yet done because I think Arsenal need to get the deal done before next week!
Reiss is good…glad he’s stsying
I need all the love I can get from the arsenal family!
Would be glad if I could talk to some of you, going through a dark phase, my strength is fading
Just hope Declan Rice proves he’s worth the massive price
