2019/20 Alex Iwobi

[DanB90]

"And there are world class players here".

he is wrong like, but thats what he said.

Missed that bit when I first watched it.
Sounds like he shoe-horned it in.

Pace, strength aside, I'm excited about Iwobi's Success Passing Rate into the box for the likes of Kean to pounce on! Let's be all excited about this. COYB!

Ooooh I'm excited ...just hope its Kean or Richy he is crossing it to.

Oh deffo. Probably got an electric shock to remind him. Lets face it, every clubs player interviews are just PR. We laugh at the RS telling players to say "Best club ever" etc etc, but we all do it.

That said, he seems a nice kid.

 

[TennesseeBlue]

Seems a likeable fella. Excited to see him play

 

[bring the ghost on]

Richie is the only world class forward we have, and he is no competition for Iwobi.

Not sure I’d call Richie world class.

 

[Billysgingham.]

Not sure I’d call Richie world class.

Not sure I would call him Richie.

 

[Hickson9]

Hopefully he gets on the pitch for 30 minutes or so on Saturday.

 

[Grinch]

Not sure how fit he is but would love to see a tiny appearance. Excited to see his exact position or if he will be given the freedom to roam.

 

[Efcjake]

Hope Bernard improves his form so we can have him behind the striker and consistently attack with some pace.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Hope he shuts all the non believers up

 

[Bebeto]

Hope Bernard improves his form so we can have him behind the striker and consistently attack with some pace.

Keep bernard on the left...move iwobi in the centre

 

[tnc85]

Keep bernard on the left...move iwobi in the centre

I’d like to see that when he is fully fit

 

[Zatara]

He's a pretty good interview.

"Yeah of course"

 

[Jags]

Iwobi, Sigurdsson, Bernard, Richarlison, with Davies and Walcott to cover. Lots of options and depth for the 3 behind the striker, so they will have to produce to nail down a starting spot. Hopefully that competition brings the best out of all of them.

The underlying issue, and one that he may struggle with, is the lack of players we get in the box. You can only retain that level of "pass rate into the box" if there are players in the box. We'll see, but you very rarely see two or three players in the box never mind the five or six he was probably familiar with at Arsenal. I don't want to be overly negative, because I don't feel as though we've had a bad window, or have a bad squad for that matter, but another striker/attacking midfielder who likes to make runs into the box more frequently would have been a huge help for Iwobi, I feel.
