Southampton fans have taken to Twitter to react after Arsenal forward Nicolas Pepe posted a strange video onto his Instagram account.

What’s the story?

Well, it was certainly an odd thing to post.

The £72 million man uploaded a video of himself wearing a Southampton shirt while driving, which has baffled the St Mary’s faithful.

We’re not sure if Pepe took it upon himself to buy a Southampton shirt, or if it’s just one he swapped with a Saints player after a game.

Nevertheless, it’s definitely a strange choice.

If fans weren’t already annoyed at him for wearing another Premier League club’s colours, they’ll be upset with him for driving so carelessly.

Especially after Ainsley Maitland-Niles recently suffered a terrible crash.

Always a risky thing to post

However, some Arsenal fans might feel a bit annoyed about this.

If it was a club from another country, then fair enough.

Nevertheless, let’s see what the Southampton fans on Twitter have been saying about the 15-second footage…
