The main reason why Nicolas Pepe has managed seven assists this season, although he could have easily had more, is the calibre of attackers around him. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette are two of the best in the league and this is why Arsenal forked out the big bucks for them.

Also, the emerging talent of Gabriel Martinelli is bound to help Nicolas Pepe add to his tally towards the end of the season. A common theme with these three goal scorers is their ability to find and exploit space. This is perfect for a player like Pepe, who has an excellent range of passing from an array of positions.

Pepe has formed a good relationship with his attacking counterparts, both on and off the field. This is important towards his development as an Arsenal player because if the chemistry is there, then the goals and assists will soon follow. It may have taken him a while to truly fit in but Pepe will feel happy with the players around him.
