Didn't Iwobi play for England at youth level? It never occurred to you that the English FA swooped in to give him a call up to their u21 side when he was at the verge of been capped by oliseh then in the friendly get together at Belgium? If England never wanted him why did hogson made an attempt to stop him at Heathrow Airport? komekn: 5 Likes |

komekn: You are off point just to paint a false picture. The Foden you said that is on an upward trajectory, has been on bench for ages. So if bench makes a player rot, how come you can claim a benching player is on an upward trajectory? The reason is simple, he is training in a highly efficient system, under brilliant managers and learning from top quality players. Foden has shown a player can still develop immensely without playing time which totally blows away your claim that sitting on the bench can only yield negatives. Nacho under an offensive system is yet to post a poor record. He only lacks playing time because Vardy is getting one hundred percent of the playing time upfront. That is all. When Nacho gets his run of games in an offensive system, you can judge him if he is good or not. 3 Likes |

gamaliel9: I know this was just highlights, but I am impressed with his agility and skill. If he continues like this, I see him displacing Iwobi and putting undecided Ebere Eze to shame. This guy would not need "red carpet"or "begging" to play for us. |

Complacent because he underperformed against Brazil? Give the kid a break. Players do hv on n off days on the pitch. Na so una go call for Aribo head any day wey em no play up to the standard he has been known of since his debut. Na for this same thread I hear say ekong no be good defender while ndidi no Sabi pass ball. Bros shun abeg! darkelf: |

charlesemeka85: He underperformed in the last 4 matches for us. Even in his club, when last has he scored a goal or given as assist. I am being objective here please. To think he is the only AM we are relying on now is a damn shame And at the bolded, I will continue to say my mind and give my opinion irrespective of whether anyone is rude to me or not.

Yes. The lad does remind me of Okocha. No hypes at all. Now with respect our fast paced style of play and quick transitions... I will go with Iwobi over Eze. Eze loves to showboat much more than Iwobi and that can kill an attacking flow/move. That said, I believe Eze is still needed and that flaw of his can be worked on. Also his workrate needs work. charlesemeka85: 5 Likes |

Which last 4 matches re u talking about? Iwobi was one of our best players at the last afcon, against Ukraine he was immense. He has been among the few shining lights in Everton this season n had a good game against westham. I doubt if u watch Everton games at all. How many goals hv eriksen scored for spurs this season? Does that mk him a bad player? All of us here know Iwobi not to be prolific in front of goal but he has qualities that made everton spend 30m on him. His link up play, vision and work rate is top notch. Iwobi was among players in the epl last term that created more chances and the stats re there for u check. darkelf: 1 Like |
