But of course he's got something about him. I never quite get this; every time we have someone who's not doing well there's this suggestion that they're like a conference player or something, but obviously they aren't. Iwobi is a competent PL footballer, that's the base. If we made him available for £10m and he was asking for £40k a week then half the league would be having a look at him. We didn't though, and the deal we got him on is very relevant to whether or not it was a sound piece of business.It's potential. Clubs generally buy younger players based on how good they can get. I don't see how Iwobi breaks into the arsenal side under Wenger, makes an impression, is inconsistent but bags more assists and goals than most of our midfielders at 22, is premiership ready, and it NOT be calculated punt.
People are suggesting he was awful for Arsenal and it's no surprise he's awful for us and wonder why we bought him. I'm making a point that there was a basis to buy him.
So you need a base. Which means getting you for a free must mean you had something about you in the first place to even be considered.
