Give Nelson A Chance
Football is a funny old game, sometimes it goes your way, other times it doesn't. A lot of the headlines at Arsenal have been about Saka and Smith Rowe who have taken their chances, while Nketia has done okay, and might even u-turn to stay at the club.
Arsenal have two promising young attackers in Florian Balogan and Reiss Nelson who spent the last season on loan while we struggled for goals and ideas up front.
I think Pepe's time at the club is over and he needs to move on, and with Lacazette gone there's more than enough space for players to stake a claim for forward spots. One of them being Nelson, who could compete for both the left or right flank having proven again he is a decent winger with a high press.
His season with Feyenoord ended in disappointment losing to Roma in the final of the UEFA conference. Nelson played 32 times this season only managing 4 goals which is not a great return, especially in a league like the dutch league where chances are plenty, but he did provide 8 assists, contributing to 12 goals overall.

Considering the fact that 4 goals is the same as he managed at Arsenal in 4 years, I guess it's not a bad return. 4 goals is more than Pepe got all season and 8 assists is equal to what Lacazette got as the top assist provider for Arsenal.
At 22 I think he should be given a chance, move Pepe on and let Nelson take the wing position and it's his to lose from here.
