Alex Iwobi

My worry with Iwobi is that he just lacks composure with the final ball or when shooting on goal, and I am not sure that will improve. He just seem to fluff his lines.

This. Because he isn’t relaxed or calm on the pitch. He’s full of panic. It’s why he’ll never be a decent number ten.

Thought he was very good when he came on yesterday, but to be fair there is a slight possibility that I was a smidge intoxicated and generally high on life 

I think he was better due to the style of football we were playing, suited him much better than 20/30 sideways passes; still an absolutely pitiful attempt when he was one on one though, almost comical.

I can confirm that everyone around me fell about laughing at that attempt. I've seen pass backs to the 'keeper with more venom :lol:.

I do think he did well after coming on though.

Very rarely.

Iwobi will probably connect with one well eventually but it won't mean I'll be hoping he shoots every time he's close to goal. It was the same with Osman.

Ossie scored 57 goals for us, which is about one every six games, Iwobi has four which is one every fourteen.

No contest.

Iwobi was stand out the most skillful player as voted for by his team mates - frustrating that he seems to shy away from this a bit in games. Would be nice if the manager could give him the confidence to really express himself. Definitely a big season for him.  Something tells me that Grey being in the squad might help Iwobi express himself a little more.

I saw this too.  There's an official clip where nearly all the players choose Iwobi as the most skillful player at the club - in training.  If that's the case, dear players, tell him to fucking produce some of these amazing skills on the pitch.

There is a reason why those lads who do the football tricks on TV don't play professional football!

We should earn some of the money that we spent on him by getting him to do tricks outside Goodison on game day.
