Saved the day against Vitória and subsequently saw his match-winning performance rewarded with a spot on the bench.
Just Unai things, I guess - beyond the understanding of us, mere mortals.

Or we could buy a decent winger.
There is still time to get rid of Pepe and put his failure down to a new league - we could still get £50m for him.
It's the beginning of December. We don't have the option to buy. We have 7 games to play before the 1st January.

I wouldn't worry too much about December or this season really. Target is to stay out of a relegation fight, which I think we can do for this year.
Next year, with no changes, is a relegation battle.

I believe the Board are worried about this month and season and want CL football. I also highly doubt we'll spend in January for interim manager. If Freddie can't find a suitable system for a £70m player, I highly doubt they'll trust the interim manager to spend more on a replacement. If Freddie doesn't get the job at the end of the season and we higher someone else, we may have another expensive player on our hands who doesn't fit in with that managers plans either.

We paid £70m for Pepe, but he's not a £70m player in terms of talent.
He's not in the team because he's been rubbish. Saka has had more of an impact - though not much. Martinelli has had a MUCH bigger impact and should be starting ahead of Pepe.

He's played plenty of times since then and has been wank.

You haven't addressed anything in my post. You have to start being realistic.
