Nicolas Pepe moved from Lille to Arsenal for a fee of £72million and reveals that he can “do more” for the club.
‘I’ve done OK, but I can certainly do more,” said the 24-year old.
‘In fact, I must do more, and that is certainly something I will be looking to improve on during the second half of the season.
‘The hardest period so far for me was when the team went through a difficult spell when we weren’t managing to win a game.
‘We worked hard as a team throughout this time and we finally managed to get that victory at West Ham last month, which was an important moment for us and the fans.’
Pepe continues his training under Mikel Arteta – having been signed during Unai Emery’s time.
‘The manager has stressed the importance of defending well as a team, and making interceptions when our opponents are trying to attack,’ Pepe said on Arteta.
‘He’s shown that he has real confidence in me, and he knows exactly what I’m capable of.
‘In terms of working on my own game, he wants me to get into one-on-one situations, get crosses in, score goals and get assists, of course.’
