Kieran Tierney's "horrible" experience of coming up against Nicolas Pepe in training backs up Mikel Arteta's claim that he has seen a different player since returning from AFCON.
The Ivorian has been on the fringes of the Spaniard's team for the majority of the season with the likes of Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Gabriel Martinelli above him in the pecking order.
Pepe was frustrated with his lack of game time and even approached Arteta to ask why he wasn't getting any minutes as the Gunners boss suggested he wasn't seeing enough from the winger in training.
