2020/21 Alex Iwobi

[Bullens Rd]

Get him on the 9-6 shift at the Megastore or Everton Two on matchdays where he can be most useful for us.

Stop playing him somewhere he has played for the VAST majority of his career? He's a number 10 based on what? The lad can't play football, you can forgive a defender not being able to cross a ball but a midfielder?

Tommy d whipped in a ball for the goal that iwobi could only dream of hitting in and he's hardly majestic is he.

Iwobi is absolutely dog turd

Haha forgot about that. Was a pinpoint cross, perfectly weighted by TD

In fact, just looking in more detail.
150 games in the premiership:

66 games as a left winger.

Sadly, he's not going to oust Richy from there.

I don't think we're using Richarlison in his best spot either fwiw

 

[TheBigIguana]

Ive honestly lost track, where are we meant to be playing him now?

Anywhere but the right touchline and in defense.

Or maybe as a #9, but honestly I'd rather that over RW.

Before we started playing him on the right he had done it a very small fraction of the time. Now his career appearances are fairly balanced and people are going "see he played the right" and ignoring that it was really our decision to start doing it.

But mate, playing left or right shouldn't stop you being able to do the basics, he cannot pass, can't cross, doesn't shoot often, doesn't score or assist, so why are you

1) adamant he's a number 10
2) trying your hardest to defend a player who has been for 98% of the time he's been year one of the worst players on the pitch

Because he can pass and carry the ball forward. Or at least he can better than every player we have but James. I'm actually less adamant he's a 10 and more adamant that he should be central. Gomes role would be good too.

Wait you're seriously suggesting Iwobi is a central midfielder?

Based on... what?

I honestly don't know if he'd be good, I'm suggesting that since no one in our midfield gets the ball forward and he does that we should look at it.

Put the shovel down FFS.

Maybe it’s time you accepted he’s nowhere near the standard and stop trying to make excuses for him.

I just want to see us play decent stuff again. I think we have very few salvageable parts.

Doing that requires doing it for the whole squad bar maybe 5 players. So sure, will you be joining me?

This is quite possibly the funniest 2 sentences I've read in my whole life.

Hats off, it takes a lot to beat everything that's ever come before it.

five? Optimism at its finest. I’m struggling to get to three.
