Some Arsenal fans on Twitter have urged manager Mikel Arteta to include Nicolas Pepe in the starting lineup against Fulham today.
Arsenal will take on Fulham at the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League this afternoon.
The Gunners will head into the game on the back of a comfortable victory over Slavia Prague away from home in the Europa League.
Pepe, described by Arsenal boss Arteta as a player who has “got incredible ability” in The London Evening Standard this week, started the match and scored a goal and provided an assist.
The 25-year-old winger started against Sheffield United in the Premier League last weekend and had a positive game as well.
Pepe has started to show more consistency in his game, and playing regularly is only going to help him maintain the momentum.
Fulham are struggling for survival in the Premier League, and the Ivory Coast international would relish playing against them and banging in a goal or two.
According to WhoScored, Pepe has made 12 starts and 11 substitute appearances in the Premier League so far this season, scoring five goals and providing one assist in the process.
Some Arsenal fans want Arteta to include the winger in the starting lineup today, as shown below.
