He was my man of the match today, I went there to see Özil but couldn't take my eyes of Iwobi.
I'm from Caribbean but I say both!
I hope I live to see an African team full of WC players win the World Cup, so the growing contingent of promising players coming out of Nigeria makes me happy! All they need is the right management IMO.
In terms of Arsenal, we have some very promising attacking players and central midfielders with potential and I'd like to see them get more opportunities as I think a select portion of them will impress similarly to Iwobi if given the same chances.

I really rate this kid, he's a proper Wenger player.

Fair enough tbh but Iwobi will have a better Arsenal career than Ox. I'll put my mum on that.Ox had 2 goals in his first 5 PL games too.
Iwobi looks great though, hope people don't turn on him when his form inevitably dips.

Come at me you ultras.

Agreed - it's interesting that he never really stood out to anybody but Wenger. The way he's been coached so far reflects this, and you can see now that he has broken into the side exactly why Wenger likes him so much. Intelligence of movement, technique and decision-making. Physically capable. Perhaps most exciting for me personally is the potential for end product. Could make him an invaluable squad member if he continues to improve!

League is very weak
Young players will go up and down with their development before they level out.
That said, sometimes it feels like I'm one of the few on the forum who takes things into consideration when judging young players.

Everyone knows that mate. Young players having ups and downs is up there with death and taxes. Always gonna happen.

Elneny-Iwobi-Welbeck...... African Kings. Bless the rains down in Africa.
You're not, I constructively criticized him a while back and people complained about it.
He's still a massive talent though, better than some of our other options at the moment.

Your posts get so much sad undertones with that avi. I always read them to myself with a sad voice. This helps when things are bad.

Nigeria should have held on to Lars Lagerback. They should have went to the last 16 in the 2010 WC. That guy is a great manager. What he has done with Iceland is fantastic.I'm from Caribbean but I say both!

Iwobi looks a great player. I refuse to get on the hype train though,we have seen this before. We can compare our Iwobi hype to the hype the mancs have for Rashford. Let's just seew hat happens.

He's intelligent & calm on the ball. That's the sort of thing we haven't seen before from our youth. Enough to warrant a little hype.
Plus, he's been at the club since he was a child.

Monreal's forward bursts complement his inward movements and midfield participation so well. Loving it, looks like our academy has produced! Would say this has the potential to be better than Ox because Iwobi is bread-and-butter Arsenal and Wenger ball since the beginning, while Ox came from Southampton at 18. Could make a larger difference than it seems.

He has everything that I feel Martian at United is lacking. Will become the better player of the two, you can feel that for sure when you watch them play.
It not just that Iwobi loves the game. But the games loves him back, oh man the games loves him back!

It's crazy how complete he is. Good passer, good dribbler, good shooter, good speed, good strength, and good decision-maker...
What does he lack of significantly? Finger pointing?
