Palfy Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 I think Iwobi watched that game and thought with all that possession in the oppositions half I can stamp my mark on this team, he is probably the most skill fullΒ Β player we have in the team now, so drop either Bernard or Gylfi and give him the freedom of Goodison and he will destroy the Watford back line.Β London Blue and pete0 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 agreed, i'm not a big iwobi fan but he's a heck of a lot farther along than lookman who was still living off that first goal he scored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 A very promising debut from him and I hope he gets his full debut on Wednesday.
