EPL: How I surprised Frank Lampard – Iwobi

Everton midfielder, Alex Iwobi, has revealed how a private conversation with his manager Frank Lampard, left the Chelsea legend surprised.

Lampard has shown huge faith in the Super Eagles star since he replaced Rafa Benitez.

Before the former England international arrived, Iwobi mainly played on the right wing, but has now been given more chances centrally.

But the 26-year-old says a chat with Lampard changed everything.


“It is where I grew up playing; I like to get on the half-turn, get the ball forward. I am always trying to play to the attacking players and make something happen.

“When I play infield, I get on the ball more and can take it up the pitch. I told him [Lampard] I’d played there for Arsenal but not had the opportunity at Everton…that it’s where I am most comfortable and the position I play for my national team.

“He tried it and it’s worked, so far. I felt he was half surprised I could run; he called me a machine,” Iwobi told the Liverpool Echo.

only time will tell

Iwobi should leave plenty talk & focus on helping his club escape relegation first.

he should focus more on escaping relagation, I once think this guy very talented when he was in arsenal BT seeing his currently in e
Everton means he was a scam all this while..
the painful thing is dt i heard he is the cousin to our legend jay jay okocha bt I dnt see any trace of okocha in him..
even with all his connections he has and the hype dt Nigerian media did for him, he still looks mediocre with d ball on his feet..

his only best form I can remember is his few good times back I'm arsenal, he has been an average player in Everton...cnt remember wen last he scored a goal or gave back to back assist in consecutive games.

I always hate seeing him doing that his nonsense leg over.
