Iwobi accepts the frustration among fans but questioned the method of reaction, telling reporters: "They need to have a bit more respect in my opinion. He's been at the club for 20 years, he’s achieved a lot. Obviously they’re a bit impatient with the results and where they want to finish. We also want to finish there, we want to win the league like anyone else. I can guarantee we are trying our hardest.
Ain't got a clue has he............. a bit impatient with results
and fuck me, if he tries, i'd hate to see him play football when he doesn't bother
Well that's us told. Thanks Iwobi-Wan Kenobi. It's only me being "a bit impatient with the results". Nothing to do with a DECADE of repeated failure.

I think it's very unfair people saying he had nothing from the word go. He looked a huge prospect when he broke into the team. Couple of really nice goals, the one at Everton springs to mind. Looked to always want the ball and be positive when he got it. He does seem to have slowed up somewhat, which is sometimes the case with young players, burst on the scene and then dip in form a bit. I hope he kicks on with us next season because I do believe he has something there.
Different manager, different player. Iwobi has a bit about him, but i cant see him filling in the no.10 role. Looks more like a Drogba kind of striker than a playmaker.

I'd agree that he looked promising originally, but it seems to a frequent refrain at The Arsenal, that youngsters who appear to have potential and start off well, end up fading to very poor and never recover that early promise. While that isn't an unusual or unexpected development, because there's always an element of natural wastage, it's alarming that it seems to be the norm for us. Since cesc and to a lesser extent, rvp were thrown in, it's hard to think of a success. That has to point to a development problem at the Club and the usual common denominator is no doubt the root of the issue. Step up Arsene.

He's a kid with a lot of pace and not much of a brain. If he is able to grow to understand his strengths and adapt his game to them, he could be a decent player. But young athletic wingers are ten a penny and if I'm being honest he's not doing much (if anything) to stand out from the crowd.
He will never make a 'number 10' as long as I've got a hole in my arse.
