A good young player. The price is crazy, but English football is gone crazy. Arsenal did pay 70M for Pepe. A guy who had got 1 good season. LOLDad just messaged me being a big arsenal fan and is gutted he is coming to us.
So split opinion on him

There are plenty more examples in the FIFA19 game era - not all players come fully-formed and PL-ready. Even if you pay £100m to Palace....it was an Everton example. I’m sure there are plenty more. All i’m saying is I don’t know how effective Iwobi might be, but Brands/Silva have obviously identified him as somebody they want.
There was a report yesterday that suggested we wanted Iwobi and Zaha, so this lad might not be 2nd choice.
Agree with Milner, but the ox is a bad example. He may well come good but he's been injured most of the time.Liverpool got Milner and Oxlade Chamberlain from teams above that supposedly didn’t want them. Both have done well for them. We did the same with Barry. Leicester turned a few United rejects into title winners. Sometimes a player just doesn’t shine in one place but fits perfectly in another. Pienaar struggled at Dortmund and Spurs yet lit up with us.
Iwobi dribbles for fun.
His last Arsenal goal, in the EL final
If Zaha or someone of similar quality couldn’t be signed this window, then it would have been better to wait until January and not invest in a player with no end productMmmmm bit of a weird question really. We went for Zaha couldn't get him so because we couldn't get Zaha it is best not to sign anyone!
Seriously

The fact that Iwobi might start the season on our bench shows how far we’ve come in a year. He would have walked into our first team at any point under Martinez or Koeman.
