Confirmed Signing Alex Iwobi

Welcome Chuka.

Loads better than Walcott so it's fine from me.

Walcott is a far superior player. Iwobi struggles for goals nationally and internationally. The only thing going for him is age, and When he is compared to a 23-year-Old Walcott he is even more inferior

Stats here are good, but he's surrounded by top quality forward players. Hopefully he can improve a lot anfmd just turned 24.

 

[RFUS]

Main problem I see is that he doesn't score goals and has a track record of not being very composed in front of goal. That is the complete opposite of what we needed. We only have Richarlison and Sigurdsson with a proven track record of goals in the league, so we're really banking on Kean being a hit straight away and then either Iwobi or Bernard suddenly finding their shooting boots. Otherwise I fail to see how we can really make much progress over last season.

Not so sure about iwobi at 35/40m but better than what we have I say.

 

[bol-uk]

As I said earlier, he is much better than you give credit for.

1 goal or assist every 3 games mostly s a sub, very strong on the ball full of energy.

He offers much more than theo obviously but also Bernard in term of actual returns.

IMO he will start at RW ahead of Bernard soon.

40mil is steep but we needed a player like that.

Still fuming we didnt go after Ziyech though

 

[malcson]

He has better stats than Bernard, Lookman or Walcott so he is an upgrade and has potential to improve. Maybe he will kick on away from the level of expectation at Arsenal because Everton won't have any expectations for him lol

 

[Dutch Toffee]

Don't really know that much about Iwobi if I'm honest. Not really a follower of Arsenal. He has my complete backing though, if he signs for Everton. Should've the support of all of us imo.

Sig?

missing Sig there mate

No, lads

 

[Osamabindiesel]

Thing is I'm willing to bet most of the people underwhelmed have never really paid much attention to him, we have to support this guy, not dismiss him before he has even played

Yeah not true. He is the player I laugh at most when I watch Arsenal. My friend is subscribed to the league (therefore I watched a ton of Arsenal games) and he is the one we clown on the most for being terrible. He has done nothing of note at Arsenal and by Buddha i hope it pans out for the lad here, but no. He was not impressive.

Walcott is like a partially sighted roadrunner with a spate of gout.

 

[blueblue]

I don't wish to be negative, but I've never actually seen him have a good game

You obviously didn't see the last Everton/Arsenal game at Goodison then.

 

[IRO1977]

Hopefully the fee itself is around 25-30m with the rest based on appearances/goals etc, would suddenly look far more reasonable

 

[rochdaleblue]

A 1 in 10 striker for 35 million (at least) Terrible business. You can argue he can also play on the wing, but we have plenty of cover there already. Reeks of desperation.

Niasse is a more effective goal scorer!

Are you serious? We are one injury away from Walcott starting.
