Don’t even know what to make of him. Another overly inconsistent player.

I’d like to see him get another go at right back in a 4-3-1-2 formation. He looked useful when played in that position before Christmas.
 

The position of specialist timewaster is a new one on me, but this could be his niche in life.

Remember Johnny Morrissey standing on the ball by the corner flag and looking at an imaginary wristwatch lol
It was the last minute of a 3-2 win against Leeds.
There is a fantastic photo of this, with 2 Leeds players stood helplessly behind him. (I think Bremner was one)
I've looked for the pic but can't find it.
Do you know the one I mean @Joey66 ?

It's a very important role for a player in a squad, the guy you throw on just to keep the ball up the pitch as the clock ticks down. There's probably nothing tired defenders hate more than a player doing this when they just want to get it and hoof it up for their mates. Pienaar was world class at it and so too was Fellaini. Davies has been useful in recent times just doing this as well. It's something Lookman should have worked been happy to do when he was here under Silva, instead he just sulked and put in little effort.

Iwobi's got a great attitude, that's one thing even his most ardent critics can't throw at him.
