He's got insane upper body strength, and quick feet so it's very hard to knock him off the ball but his distribution skills are terrible. Could be a good carrier of the ball from deep but doesn't have the stamina to run all the way back to defend for more than 70 minutes. He's basically half of a perfect box-to-box player.Iwobi's passing/possession skill is a big question mark if you're thinking about him in midfield. He would need to adjust to being to focal point of possession - constantly making himself available, quickly receiving and distributing the ball. If you look at his passes per 90 mins last season it's barely more than half of what Özil had playing the #10. (30 vs 56 passes per 90 - I think Özil's contribution to possession and build-up is criminally underrated here but that's another story). Not saying Iwobi doesn't have the skills for it but it would be a huge change in responsibility for him. Wouldn't mind seeing him play as the forward-most CM in a 4-3-3 in preseason or league cup games but I hardly think it would be an easy fit.
