Why Nicolás Pepe's game is not so showy with Arteta in this league start [A thread]

The season has just started and many fans are wondering why one of our star players is not playing the amount of minutes for someone who cost us £72 Millions.
To understand this we have to focus on Arteta's playstyle in these first games of the season where Arsenal's game has focused on the left wing more than the right, the reason this happens is because players who play on the left are more offensive than in the right.
This is something that Arteta knows more than anyone, for this reason players like Saka, Aubameyang, Tierney and even Kolasinac stand out more than Bellerin, Holding or Pépé himself. Just by looking at the heat map we can see the role both sides have on the pitch.
In conclusion, we should not criticize Nicolas Pépé, neither Mikel Arteta who seeks to get the best of his players, which so far has worked with 3 wins in 3 games.
