Speaking to the Super Eagles Media Team via YouTube, Alex Iwobi recollected that he was almost released by Arsenal before signing a scholarship with the North London club.

The Hale End Academy product was able to overcome that setback, going on to make 149 appearances for the Gunners first team in all competitions before sealing a summer move to Everton.

Prior to his departure from the Emirates Stadium, the winger had appeared for the Gunners in the Champions League and Europa League, and helped them win the FA Cup in 2017.

''Of course you always have setbacks especially if you are a footballer,'' Iwobi remarked.

''I'll just give one example, when I was 14 I was told at Arsenal I wasn't good enough so instead of putting my head down and getting upset, I decided to go and prove to them that I had the ability to play in Arsenal, and luckily I was able to get through that setback when I was 14.''

Asked to name his best pal in the Super Eagles, Iwobi did not think twice before choosing Chelsea Academy product Ola Aina.

''In camp, it would probably be Ola Aina, growing up with him, we went to the same school, lived in the same road. Even till now we are still good friends.''

Iwobi has been named in the starting line-up by Everton caretaker coach Duncan Ferguson for Sunday afternoon's Premier League clash at Manchester United.

Exactly

In fact, Rodgers would have laced up his gloves and entered the pitch for an amateur boxing match

I once said it that I don't think Nacho is fully appreciated at Leicester. If Nacho had continued that game, I foresaw a penalty awarded for a foul on him in the eighteen yard box because of the animosity the Norwich players would have had towards him

What do you mean fully appreciated in what regard

TheSuperNerd:
And Danielnino00, I just found out that the referee awarded a freekick to Leicester for that foul on Nacho. It was Maddison who kicked it out for a goal kick. So you see that the freekick was indeed given. I didn't take notice during the game because this Nacho-Norwich thing was taking all the attention. This shows the goal would have stood had Nacho scored.

Fact is, Ricardo should have just thrown the ball towards an opponent as usually will be done and not to Nacho who thought it was a cue to play on. Norwich were leading amd trying to take advantage of the situation. Nacho was only showing Winners' mentality in trying to get Leicester on the scoreboad.

The Norwich players acted like kids and It is still a shock to me how none of them was sent off for harassing Nacho in that manner especially that Cantwell who obviously went for Nacho's neck. He escaped with a yellow instead. Funny people.

Na Rodgers I just dey look. He better not destroy the confidence Nacho has toiled his ass off to build up till this point. Nacho is a "confidence" player and Rodgers should have known better. He acted very silly with that sub move and it ended up costing him as Leicester failed to win.

Would he has taken off a Maddison or a Vardy if any if those two were mixed up in such like Nacho? Selah.

Anyway, I hope Nacho shows more fire following this incident and put it behind him. Funny how a good section of the biased English Media wanna label Nacho some kind of scapegoat. Hypocrites!

Y'all must think the sun rises and sets on Iheanacho. You really expect Rodgers to pamper Iheanacho at this stage of his carrier because he is a "confidence player"?.

Maybe Rodgers should also wash Kelechi's clothes for him, bathe him, feed him as well as cuddle Iheanacho every time he plays badly in order to protect his *confidence". grin

You guys' level of entitlement is just sickening. If Vardy is picked ahead of Iheanacho, you cry racism. If Iheanacho plays badly, you blame the coach's tactics or his fellow players or the ballboys or the grass or air in the stadium sef. grin

Face the facts mehn. Iheanacho is no longer a baby or a youth player. He is a full professional footballer. Nobody gives you freebies at this stage. If you can't man up, you suffer the consequences.

Leicester city doesn't revolve around Iheanacho. As a matter of fact he looks pretty expendable at this point. If he likes let him keep crying "confidence player".

Uncle nobody is perfect so stop saying Maddison won’t be stupid

British players have done the most stupid things in the Epl

So stop saying nonsense


Mr ITK

Stick to the topic at hand stop deviating to create non existent smoke screens.

Most people here do not appreciate the term honour integrity and unsporting conduct with regards to football.

These are long ingrained conventions in football.

You simply don't do that it's not done.

Anybody who does it will get RIGHTFULLY SLATED. There is absolutely no excuse.

Essentially very very few footballers will be found to do such unsportsmanlike conduct. It's sheer stupidity you are going to get slated.

But no surprises here we are defending the indefensible. Of course because it's KC he can do know wrong. It's somebody else's fault, the referees, the manager, the Norwich fc players.

Shockingly many people call me biased, hypocritical, prejudiced and bigoted with double standard.

LOL what a comedy.

In the history of the Epl British players have done the worst things

Nacho was never a player that has done such till yesterday

So what does that mean He is innocent.

Now tell me the pkayers who have shown such blatant unsportsmanlike like conduct on the field of play in the EPL.

You claim to be a fan of English football but you know nothing

In the past 10 years when it comes to un sportsmanship is anyone worst than Joey Barton ?

I guess Joey Barton plays hockey

You already said English plays can’t do such just as you used Maddison as an example

I guess Joey Barton is costa rican

I have others but I am naming the most popular one

When I say you know nothing I am damn serious
