Billwelshblue Posted December 7, 2022 Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 He is the only player creating anything we have to extend his deal. We need to add more creativity and goals desperately too so we aren't relying on just him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 30/11/2022 at 17:04, Sibdane said: Correct. We’ve only seen Iwobi perform to this level under Lampard. People wanted him gone under the other managers. Then he's tied down to a longer contract and will command a higher fee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BedfordBlue Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 I think we have started to see the return of the old Iwobi in recent games was the worst player on the pitch against United much better once he came off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 I think he’s been the best of a bad bunch. Not saying he hasn’t been valuable, but I think his form is more the result of the crap around him. Technically, he’s great, but that’s not enough in this current squad.

Palfy Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 I believe since the return of Gana he has had his position moved back to right hand side of of midfield, and is being shackled by having to back up and cover the right back position, that imo is why we are seeing him revert back to the bad days, because he has been reverted back to the position he doesn't enjoy, and is less effective in. He and the team were much more effective and balanced when he played in centre of midfield, and Onana and Doucoure behind him either side, for me the introduction of Gana the dropping of Doucoure and moving Iwobi from a more central role has been very negative, and plus Gana has been very poor and has proven to be no replacement for Doucoure, and certainly not worth changing the setup of the midfield for, unfortunately Iwobi has suffered injury which could keep him out for a few weeks which is not what we need at this moment in time, other wise I would have gone to a midfield of Onana Iwobi Doucoure.

c1982 Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 3 weeks out according to official site. A lot less worse than it looked/could have been. Romey 1878 and Wiggytop 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Probably misses Southampton, West Ham and Arsenal and back for Liverpool. Whilst I don't think he is playing that well at the moment, it is very Everton that we will miss him for the two games we will need as much creativity as we can get. Bearing in mind we need more creativity anyway, I hope the club are looking at this injury and thinking, lets try and get someone in sooner rather than later!

Bailey Posted January 13, 2023 Report Share Posted January 13, 2023 I'd have my doubts. I wouldn't put Iwobi down as the hardiest of players and if he did try and play through an injury, I don't see him playing well as the type of injury would restrict him quite a lot. We need to give him time to recover fully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodison Glory Posted February 19, 2023 Report Share Posted February 19, 2023 Watching the MOTD analysis and I hadn’t realised in real time but Iwobi lacked a little bit of effort/conviction on crosses coming into the box (from McNeil)..not attacking the space, admiring the cross etc. With the state of our forward line we are going to need others to take a chance and attack the ball.

Wiggytop Posted February 19, 2023 Report Share Posted February 19, 2023 Thought he was still off his best yesterday, needs to be more aggressive in challenging and getting into a scoring position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted February 19, 2023 Report Share Posted February 19, 2023 His best talent is pretty much wasted out on the right we've seen this before, he knows it but he takes it for the team and works hard and gets on with it, and gives immense support to Coleman, if he wasn't there doing a lot of the donkey work for Coleman who would you rather, personally I think he's a good team player with no one better in the team to do what he's been asked to do.

I understand that frustration. Tbf, his form had nose-dived before the switch of position and we were getting destroyed week in, week out through the middle. So I can understand changing things in midfield and so should he. I think he does understand it though and this is yet more lazy journalism.
