I like Alex Iwobi and believe he still has something to offer, it's just not working too well for him under Dyche at the moment.

He can only do OK when he's playing in the hole
Elsewhere on the pitch he is crap and can't or won't tackle
Our midfield hasn't really been that good so there is room, but Dyche also doesn't care that the midfield isn't good.He plays better in centre mid than wing, but there's no room for him there. He creates chances and ruins them, absolutely frustrating.
Well I don't think you play Doucs and Iwobi in the same midfield, and Doucs is playing better. I don't particularly rate Doucs but he is having a run of form at the moment.Our midfield hasn't really been that good so there is room, but Dyche also doesn't care that the midfield isn't good.
Its just down to the selection of 2 managers. Lampard got performances out of iwobi i didnt think were there. Even at wingback he seemed to realise that he wont melt if theres any physical contact. He started knocking players off the ball and using his pace and strength. He had always looked lightweight to me. Now dyche fancies doucoure for the centre and he has been rewarded with goals and assists. Iwobi has regressed in the meantime back to the lightweight player he just shouldnt be given the size of him. Maybe its just confidence and he needs to know the manager believes in him?What changed?
Mad that people still don't see it or don't care.
Fair play la. I just want to know where the performances have gone he was putting in regular under lampard either at wingback or central thats all. We would be a better team with that iwobi in the team.He didn't "phone it in" her just didn't okay very well. Can never question his work ethic. If he left SC on his own all match he wouldn't have played a full 90 under someone like Dyche.
This is not a young Michel Platini who we should be nurturing and finding room for. This is Alex Iwobi. He's simply not worth persevering with because, even when indulged, he is simply not that good. Worse, he lacks basic football intelligence. You can't coach that. He might be better in the middle, but who cares? He's not going to transform our team in that position.Its just down to the selection of 2 managers. Lampard got performances out of iwobi i didnt think were there.

Oh aye. Would be looking to sell him on rather than give a new 4 year deal.This is not a young Michel Platini who we should be nurturing and finding room for. This is Alex Iwobi.
