Former Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has been tipped to take over at Arsenal, as Unai Emery faces increasing pressure to deliver results.
Since his departure from Old Trafford in 2018, Mourinho has been working as a pundit on Sky Sports, providing analysis on high-profile games this season.
He has shared his thoughts on Manchester United under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Liverpool's chances of winning the Premier League under Jurgen Klopp.
Notably, Mourinho has discussed Arsenal's summer signing Nicholas Pepe and how he would utilize the player alongside Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Speaking on Sky Sports in September, Mourinho said: "They have two options. One is to play with three midfield players in a straight line, like they did in the last 10 or 20 minutes with two central midfielders and one No. 10 that can feed the three without bringing Alexandre Lacazette in between the lines.
"Another situation is to bring Pepe from the right to the inside in many occasions. Many teams nowadays defend with a back four, but build with three. By building with three, they can put a right-back completely wide and bring the winger to the inside.
"If Pepe plays more on the inside, he can feed more diagonals to Lacazette to do what Matteo Guendouzi did for the last goal. Pepe doing from the right, with his left foot, finding Aubameyang on that diagonal. They have lots of options, these three players are very good."
