Confirmed Signing Alex Iwobi

[watson54z]

Dont get the fume over iwobi. Decent stats, 23 and obviously wanted to join us and marco wanted him. Dont compare to zaha as he is a different player and younger

How much would you say Oxlade Chamberlain is worth? I don't see the similarity to Bolasie.

Seems like every black winger in the premiership is bolasie 2

Zaha, now iwobi

Welcome Alex - Enjoy your new family

He nutmegs well, that is a definite plus from me!

 

[Eagle Eye]

Judging by this he is pretty effective either side and could even fill in for Kean...I think Iwobi playing off of Kean will be absolute dynamite away from home...

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Happy days! We have a very robust front line now with option's.

 

[GT77]

£28m is very reasonable for the attributes and age, that money is a project these days.

To be honest I’m not really fussed what our new players ex teams fans thought of them They’re our players now and I want them to succeed here and help us improve . It’s up to them and Marco Silva whether they achieve that Good luck to all of them.

Great post mate!

Spot on. As a reminder Barca fans were telling us last summer that Digne wasn't good enough going forward. It happens all the time when a player leaves.

 

[SteStocksDJ]

Apparently he was one of our main targets ...

I hope he comes good but is a huge drop in quality from zaha.

 

[Hantakun]

Watched some YouTube clips now. Doesn't really look like a natural winger the way he moves but I like how he controls and passes the ball.

In some sequences where he's in a more central position he almost reminds me of Ever Banega, dare I say it, although I'm sure Iwobi is nowhere near Banega's vision at this point.

Could be a semi-flop, but hopefully he comes good at Everton, maximizing his potential.

I thought with Zaha it was just them both being from Palace. But this Iwobi is Bolasie comparison certainly has a more sinister feel.

I think the fume is over, us being after Zaha for so long and this was obviously if we couldn't get him. I think if we'd signed him a week or two ago no one would be bothered. 23 years old, International, played in Europe all the way to final and scored in that final. Despite his team getting battered. I think he'll be a good signing.

 

[PITA]

My first time vaulting. Think I did a decent job for a first attempt.

Good effort but it was hardly digging into the archives.
