Consistency is the key.... Let him keep it up...

And regarding insults from arsenal fans,I just checked their social media pages now and there's a lot of praise for him...he even some MOTM nominations... I'm very sure arsenal fans don't hate him.. he just gets a lot of criticism cus of his poor performance sometimes.....

tbaba1234:
Samuel Kalu outshining Simon Moses again... If Rohr is watching these games, he must definitely see this.

Danielnino00:



Simeone,Klopp and a younger Arsene Wenger know how to get the best out of young talents... That's why I want Ndidi at Liverpool...

andrew444:


Yeah that guy seems to be outshining simon somehow,but simon is a great player,they share the Left wing and Right Wing

Of course he was .. Why else did England try to take him from us? .. But for injuries, he could have some great performances at Liverpool, Stoke and West Ham

tbaba1234:


He outshone him last week as well.. He is good enough for the national team

One of the most hilarious things I read on this thread was that Arsenal fans single out Iwobi for criticism because he dumped England for Nigeria, when 90% of Arsenal fans aren't English.
We are talking about a global brand that is Arsenal whose fan base cuts across different races, tribes and religion.
This thread can be quite yellow at times.

My 35-man world cup preliminary squad list ..

* - very certain to make the last 23
**- possibly make the last 23 but not certain
***- might make the last 23 but with slim chances

But I believe the 35 man list will b just formality sake... Most of us already know the final squad by heart ... It would b good if Rohr use the DR Congo friendly to try out some fringe players before including them in the 35 man list.. or just use the friendly to cut down the list to 30. Either way,he should give the new invitees a chance..he should stop this Uche Agbo treatment abeg..

tbaba1234:


Arsenal fans were on Iwobi's case for most of the game. It was only after the late goal that you started seeing the MOTM comments. They were on his case all game.

There is just a lot of negativity around the club, even when Iwobi plays well.. They will pick on one misplaced pass to rubbish all the good, he did.

Danielnino00:


Same thing with Welbeck until he scored the winner.... Most football fans are just not patient enough... Some are full of anger...they just pick on a particular player to vent their anger on and Iwobi has been one of the victims this season..

Joebie:
CHAN Eze?

tbaba1234:


Yes..

Danielnino00:



Yea...I can't think of a better alternative at CB...

tbaba1234:


This is a very weak argument... There is no magical age for the WC... The best teams have a mixture of youth and experience. A 22 year old can be more influential to his team than a 29 year old. Joel Campbell was 22 in 2014 and he was costa rica's most influential player.. He is a good player, not necessarily exceptional.

The average age of the Ajax team that won the Champions cup was 23.

Serbia did not beat us because their age bracket is between 25-32... In another setting, that same Nigerian team can beat them.

Joebie:
What advantage has Ajayi over Umar?

Farzat:



Which argument are u talking abt. I said "left for me" meaning if am in control of things that the best age for WC shud b 24 n above....You also repeated what I said that the mixture of youth and experience would give us d balance we need.

andrew444:


Let not call it outshone sha...They both have their own part to play,thats it,or are they fighting over something? Just say Samuel Kalu is getting goals and assist more then moses simon at the moment,dont call it outshone,are they the only 2 players on that team?

Danielnino00:


MFM are down 1-0 at home to Djiloba of Mali... Plateau united won 2-1 at home against USM Algers ... it's gonna b a tough return leg for them both...

Akwa united take on Al Hilal of Sudan today..licl off in 2 mins


Modified... Full time MFM-0 vs Djiloba-1 ... seems like the Olukoya boys are out.... They aren't convincing away from home..

I really can't say.. ..

tbaba1234:


They are both playing well.. Both should be in the national team.. i just felt Kalu was playing better.

tbaba1234:


Arsenal fans reflect the negativity that surrounds the club.. Certain players get more stick than others. Iwobi has suffered several times from unfair criticism.. Even today where he created the most chances, had a key pass and an assist, he was getting a lot of stick.

If Arsenal had drawn or lost today, Iwobi would have gotten a lot of abuse even though he was the best Arsenal player on the pitch.

Iwobi has been far from convincing this season if we want to be honest with ourselves. I have seen games pass him by when he should be one of the main actors. The fans lost patience in him when time and time again he failed to live up to expectation and then came the wild night party incident......

Even at his worst, Iwobi wouldn't make top 3 most criticized player. Xhaka, Bellerin, Oezil are the most criticized, although Oezil appears to have won the fans back with some solid displays for weeks now. That's how it is, you win back the fans with good displays, people invest money, time and emotions supporting a team, you cant gag them not not to show displeasure when you're not playing well amidst reports of partying.
