Not exact matches
Iwobi went onto appear for England
at Under - 16, Under - 17 and Under - 18
levels, but recently decided to commit himself to
play for his country of birth instead.
Iwobi has already featured in two friendly games for the senior Nigeria side, though, so even though he did
play 11 games for England
at three different underage
levels, it looks like he will be a Nigeria player in the future, just like his uncle Jay - Jay Okocha.
Having already appeared for the Super Eagles in friendly matches,
Iwobi's late cameo in the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier means that the forward is now tied down to a future with the West African giants, ending speculation that he might yet jump ship and
play for England, whom he represented
at youth
level.
Iwobi has been
playing well and part of a winning team as mentioned but «adding goals to your game» is something that may happen over many months or years not weeks, unless of course he was a regular goal scorer
at the lower
levels
The six players are; young striker Chuba Akpom who has been on fire this season and scored a hat - truck in the last under 21 game, Gedion Zelalem, the central midfielder who has been compared to Cesc Fabregas, Ainsley Maitland - Niles, the talented winger who was on the bench for the Stoke game, Stefan O'Connor the promising 17 - year old centre back who recently signed his first professional contract, Alex
Iwobi the Nigerian born winger and nephew of Jay - Jay Okocha and finally the young defensive midfielder Glen Kamara who also
plays for the Finland national team
at under 21
level.
One of them will probably replace Cazorla when the time comes, but the other one is still going to want that RW position, not to mention Alex
Iwobi making waves
at younger
levels, Joel Campbell will also fancy himself for this position, right now though, Ramsey and Wilshere are injured and The Ox has superiority over Campbell and
Iwobi, so I have little doubt that he will
play for these 4 weeks.
mkhitaryan cech monreal bellerin aubameyang lacazette koscienly wilshere are the most overrated players in the premier league.None of them are good enough even to start for tottenham elneny welbeck xhaka
iwobi mustafi are just shocking players.The fact that they are even
playing at this
level proves we have a dire problem with senior figures
at the club.
I'm all for giving young players a chance.He has had plenty of opportunities and you answered your own question as to what position he is actually any good
at.There is none.He is NOT the quality required and anyone who believes otherwise can go watch
Iwobi at Orient as that's the
level he will be
playing at in a few seasons
Alex
Iwobi has now moved to credit team - mate Mesut Ozil for helping him to learn how to
play at the highest
level, revealing he watches him in training in order to learn.
IMO
Iwobi needs a EPL loan for 12 months so he can get a lot more game time, he is not good enough right now for us, he has moments but he needs to develop that potential and IMO he now needs to
play regularly
at a high
level.
Standard Sport understands that
Iwobi, who
played for England
at youth
level, had made clear to the FA that he wanted to represent the country of his birth as a full international despite a late bid to convince him to change allegiance.
According to the news agency, one of their photographer
at pitch
level, heard dozens of home supporters make monkey chants towards
Iwobi and Welbeck, as they neared a section of the stands when the ball went out of
play.
