Simone Pepe (6 Viewers)

I honestly think the Pepe-Motta combination down the right against Notts was the absolute worst pairing we've ever ever fielded.

No doubt at all.

That's a Serie B combination.

Good to see there are still certainties in life (Pepe and Motta faling that is)

other people collects spiderman comics, pepe is collecting haters haha. he is really not that bad guys as a winger you have to be fast like a marathon runner. every position has its own requirements, a cm should be able to pass, a forward should make goals and a winger should be fast and pepe is fast...

You're right, Pepe does have some speed, and that gets him into good positions to cross or beat his marker and set up an easy goal. Sometimes it even gets him into positions where he can apply a finish to a slightly overhit cross.

The problem is that he possesses absolutely none of the skills required to do anything once he gets into those positions. His passing isn't great, his crossing is worse, he can't beat defenders 1v1, and he definitely can't finish.

Terrible player. He must not play. Even that no name Paraguayan guy can't be worse than him.

 

[Albo]

Pepedinhoooo

He did very well in defense , and scored good goal .

 

[Trequartista]

He had a poor game apart from his goal.

Must not start unless all our other wingers are injured.

 

[The Curr]

I was pleased with him today. Worked hard, closed down, tracked back, good finish.

 

[IrishZebra]

Generally mediocre and a flash of unexpected quality, that's Pepe all over.

 

[Joey Jokes]

appreciated his back tracking and work, noce finish.....crossing is still fucking disgusting

 

[pitbull]

Provided a good cross or two, scored a crucial second goal and covered for Licht several times. The right flank was the base for our success today.

 

[radekas]

Good game from Peepee and a good goal. I always considered him a really good bench player.

But his crossing is the worst since Molinaro. I hope Conte will tell him to stop crossing at all and focus on shooting .

 

[Cheesio]

Work very hard. Nice goal.
That's it.

[baggio]

Worked his socks off. And that was almost as clean a goal as Pepedinho.

 

[Mark]

I was, WTF? He's playing?

but this a good job.

I disagree. Worked extremely hard in defence and won many balls back, helped a lot Lichsteiner with his aggressive tackling and great cover. Was wasteful in attack but managed to score a goal.

I'm glad he has uped his game, he has to give Krasic something to think about. The serbian must improve and what better than to work hard in order to earn his place.
