Been one of our better players - I wouldn't read too much into a social media post

No mate it's clearly about Everton and he should be burned alive.

He's part of the reason we are constantly now at the wrong end of the table. We've bought two many alex iwobis. The clue is in the word survival.
I despise him running out in an Everton shirt probably more than any other player in my times supporting Everton.

Fair enough , but every member of our team has contributed to two seasons battling relegation, no exceptions.
(Except for Pickford without whom we would already be in the Championship )

Take Pickford out of the equation and there is no one I wouldn’t kick out of the club if I had the chance, and I’m including everyone in every department of our club right down to the cleaners.
Tear the lot down and start again.
Keep no one.

Most would go on ability. What i despise about iwobi is you can smell his lack of real desire. Mentioned it before. I dont think i have ever seen him go into a tackle and really mean to win it.
That might seem little. But it sets a precedent.
He's rotten.

To be fair he could be talking about literally anything in his life in that tweet, it’s like those pathetic attention seeking posts I used to see in Facebook and then a girl would post ‘u ok hun?’ And they’d be like ‘I’ll pm u babe’ so everyone knows they’re going through some really important stuff but they’ve got class like and won’t share it in public.

Or, he could be talking about his football career, and just realised he’s pretty rubbish at his vocation.

He has no self awareness.

I agree and disagree.
Buying players like him on the wages he is on is the reason we are in the mess.
However, he has found consistency at being a mid table premier league player, amongst largely poorer players.
In an ideal world with the money we have spent he would be classes as an out right dispointment in our push for top four, what he has become is a a fairly decent player for us in our relegation battle.
It’s so confusing

Is he even mid table? I dont think he gets in any team other than Everton. I dont feel they would tolerate him as long as Everton have. I think i posted on here the day we signed him crying tears. Nothings changed. I dont think he is a real team player. I wouldnt want to go into a battle with him. He has that weird thing where he looks like he's a good player but he actually does very little. Doesnt tackle. Gives away a lot of possession. Often doesnt track runners.
Nothing personal against him. I just hate him with a passion playing for Everton.

Suppose the point I am making is that he was signed to be a player to push the top half, however he is a mid table player currently playing in a relegation threatened side. He was a terrible signing, too much money, but he isn’t the worse player in our (terrible) side
