I wish him a speedy recovery but if he is out for an extended period you can't bet that sentimental Bill will renew his contract offer of £100k a week.
If he is injured beyond the expiration of his contract I'd offer him a 1 year extension on the same terms
 
I can't see this as anything other than a huge blow unfortunately. Coupled with Patterson's injury, it basically robs us of our only two ways of advancing up the pitch. For a team that was already struggling to create chances, that's disastrous.

We'll now be hoping Coleman or Doucoure can do one of their fortunate meandering dribbles, or simply getting the ball to Gray somehow to see if he can score a few more long-range shots. Possibly Gordon in midfield? Or, of course, sign an Iwobi replacement who turns out to be as good or better. It's a waiting game right now, we won't know.

It's a hammer blow, those who have doubted how important he is too us are going too see it now.
The only thing it might do is force us to act in the window

Is this a wind up or real?

Why waste your time reading and believing the rubbish on soccernet? Wait for the club medics to assess his injury.

His injury has already been assessed. I know that everton needs about a week to come up with the actual statement online, but believe me he already knows more or less how long he will be out for bearing in mind he had the scan today.
 
Agree he's a big miss but we need to bring in another creative midfielder too hopefully Garner takes his chance meant to be back at the end of Jan
 
His uncle who is also his agent said he'll be right as rain by 12:30pm Wednesday, so can make lunch time at finch farm no sweat. 'Keep the new contract warm' and 'the bon bons are tres bien'. Got this from football5aday.com.

[the above is utter rubbish, as usual!]
 
I would be interested to see how a confident Alex Iwobi plays in a team who are competant. He's shining out as one of the better performances beacuse his confidence has raised massively and the rest of the team have been generally woeful.

He's created a lot but had nobody finish chances. Will be a big miss for us considering how little we have in creativity.
