2020/21 Alex Iwobi

[TheBigIguana]

I think this season is very much last chance saloon for Iwobi. Benitez has generally played with number 10's who are almost advanced central midfield players, who have power but also some defensively discipline. It could be Iwobi, but it could also be Doucoure. This feels his chance to show some consistency. His best, and some may say only good game for Everton was also one of the few he played in that 10 role against West Ham game. It's a long shot, but I'm not sure he can do much more than play in that 10 role.

Unfortunately with 3 years on his deal, and a multitude of other problems, he will not be the 1st problem to resolve this summer either.

Doucoure as a #10. That's how Watford went down!

Calm down Gilbo lad

We've played one friendly and you're ready to pop a vein over a fella that had an alright game.

1/10.
Try harder.
Hopefully when the frauds moved on. If any idiot will have him.

I find the tone and level of criticism distasteful.

l know he hasn’t done well while here, but the hate he receives goes way too far.

What about the hate Delph receives?

Not done well?

The bloke is an absolute joke.

The Everton fans are becoming completely toxic. More and more effort is going into hatred and anger. Youngsters are eviscerated, our best players deemed unworthy, our manager targeted. The players do what they do in spite of us. We are losing the art of support.

Its small mindedness and I dislike it.

We’re not toxic we just don’t want to keep putting up with poor performances throughout the club.

We all want to see the Blues winning. Players are human too. Ongoing brutal personal attacks will not creat an environment for success.

You understand they don’t log onto GOT, right?

Iwobi was miles better than Gordon on Sunday sorry to say. I want Gordon to get chances but we've once again stacked the deck in front of him.

Gordon isnt a 30m odd signing from a premier team, who has has good 3/4 years experience at the top level.

Iwobi is absolutely atrocious at football, his only good moments ever are when he's got the ball and runs at people which he is actually alrite at, problem is then when he beats his man his final ball is again atrocious.

He's up there with the the very worst of the singings we've made in recent history

This doesn't matter in the context of my post

Jeebus the cranks are in full meltdown this evening …. Nothing to see here folks , as you were

Of course it matters when your comparing the performance of two players.

My point is you'd EXPECT more from iwobi given the circumstances

Its not small minded to expect us to replace poor players with better ones.

Anyone still blaming the supporters obviously didn't watch any home games last season. There was no one in the ground and some of the performances were truly appalling.

Iwobi has had 2 seasons of poor to average performances. Hes a big money signing in attack and has contributed 2 league goals. Sometimes you have to move on from a player and bring in someone else because this is top level football, and we shouldn't have to accept repeated poor performances.
