I could name 10 prem defenders than Pepe Vvd, Van de ven, Saliba, Gabriel, Romero, Dias, Konate, Walker, Guehi, Trippier & Branthwaite. even Amadou Onana if you consider him one.
Pepe is still on top form. This is a fact. Last seasons were amazing, but even this one when he struggled with some injuries he bringed top performances! Look at his champions league matches of this season for example
Pepe still mostly remembered for being Hardcore and death defying Tackles but what most forget that : He is Always has been a Great Defender and one of the best in the World
But the match against Slovenia in R16 he made such mistake that almost cost Portugal. Not every player is perfect I know but he as a last man defender looks like a gamble from Roberto Martinez.
It always saddens me when everyone just assumes that a player is going to quickly decline and retire once they get to their mid 30s or above. Pepe and Ronaldo are clear examples that in football age is just a number🔥
Pepe and Ronaldo together..... Of course it's his personal decision But the way Messi united with busquets, alba and Suarez..... even pepe and Ronaldo can unite
@@nishadshetty2604 why would he move from such a amazing league and great county to Saudi Arabia of all places and to such a terrible league for one person? And the culture shock that would hit him and HIS FAMILY. He has to think about them as well not just himself and the MLS is in the USA much better for them than Saudi Arabia
@@ceowwrj he's already made plenty why make himself his wife and kids miserable just for a quick buck which he already has alot of........Ur seriously defending such a bad league and country honestly gets Ur head out the gutter
His legacy is tainted for being a butcher. Lack of class and sportsmanship, sad to have such a talented player throw away his image like that. Pepe earned my dislike, and the dislike of countless others for his unnecessary and primitive rudeness
