Arsenal Legend Kanu Nwankwo believes summer signing Nicolas Pepe has also put fear into the club's rivals, MySportDab reports.

The Ivory Coast international arrived at the Emirates during the summer, signing from Ligue 1 side Lille in a club-record £72 million ($89m) deal.

And the 24-year-old winger has already proved to be a real handful in his early appearances for the Gunners, averaging 3.8 dribbles per game, more than any other attacker in the English top flight.

He also became the first player in 50 Premier League matches to dribble past Virgil van Dijk when he skipped past the Liverpool centre-back during his full debut at Anfield.

So it’s been a good start to life in north London for Pepe, who started alongside Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for the first time during Arsenal’s 2-2 draw with Tottenham immediately before the international break.

And Kanu - who won two Premier League titles during his five-year stay with the Gunners between 1999 and 2004 - has already seen enough to know that Pepe will be a huge hit at his former club.

"He’s a good player," the Nigeria Legend told Goal.

"He’s got fast feet and I think he can unlock teams. He can score and he can assist.

"The league here is totally different from every other league so it takes time for somebody coming in to perform the way they have for their other clubs.

"But I think he will do well for us because now he is gettingmore game time and I believe he will complement the other two strikers."

I was so scared of him against Liverpool

Kanu is your boss

Really

Maybe iwobi did, cos he has put fear on Everton rivals

Cos the combo of digne, Richardson and iwobi...... Is just a cohesive force

Moise Kean to balance up the equation

yes

The guy still needs to work on a few things. Football doesn't just revolve around dribbling. His shooting accuracy hasn't been remarkable so far

True talk. That pepe is just too good. He's sharp and has amazing techniques. Great to watch him and ceballos.

Very good dribbler with the ball he has to improve his scoring techniques. Arsenal has got a good signing.

Abi my idol self dey "gbenusi"

When he has not played against the top 4?

I no be arsenal fan but dia squad currently is one strong squad if they can utilize it!

If Jose handle this arsenal squad, e go use them perform wonders

Dribbles with no shot on Target.

Let him score at least 20 goals and 15 assists each season and we can now judge.

Rivals are only scared of Liverpool attacks and the cityzens.

Dude is a baller for real

Liverpool and Tottenham are top 1000.

YES
Aston Villa and Southampton

Nwankwo Kanu, stop smoking.

Time will tell.
YNWA.

I am totally disagree with Kano Nwankwo, I think this guy is not worth the the amount he was signed. He is good maybe, but watching him play against Liverpool made conclude he is still a kid. He still needs to improve his game; and in my opinion you don't buy a player 80 million pounds for him to start improving. 80 million should be able to sign an already made player. Therefore, it is a loss for Arsenal

He is a good dribbler no doubt but sometimes he's lost in front of the 18yrd box which makes him to shoot unnecessarily at the post.. He should work on his decision making

u be ode....pepe too good ko too good ni...person wey no get movement u dey open ur big mouth say he good..

De guy is below average, I prefer Leroy Sane to him any day.
And considering his purchase fee, the guy needs alot of validation to do. From my observation, I am making a prognostication that he will fail at validating himself.


Someone should quote this post for future reference

sure, same for that chukwueze of Nigeria
