He’s not good enough for the club...so many players his age and his position who are far far better. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a blind fool.

He has regressed so much. As I watch him today, he's just there for the paycheck. Just exchanging passes, has no drive to seize the initiative. Useless!

You see these performances from the likes of Iwobi here and there and wonder why he can't do this more often.

You have to look at Wenger. The talent is clearly there and he has a lot more to give but we need to get it out of him a lot more than we are seeing.

He's so frustrating.

Can't blame Wenger for Iwobi's erratic passing tbh. Sterling is still a shit finisher despite Pep getting the best out of him earlier in the season, a manager can make them more confident but the technique and vision is down to the player.

He's got talent but never gonna be a top player imo, doesn't seem to want it enough.

Yeah I get that but again when he's on it his passing is absolutely fine. He loves a quick one two and finding space after.

I personally think it's a lot to do with decision making which of course can easily be worked on.

He's a confidence player. He's on social media all the time reading the bile and vitriol that's spewed out about every little mistake he makes on daily basis.

He burst onto the scene and was actually really good when no one was paying attention and his performances/form started to drop when he made basic mistakes that contributed towards us dropping points which you would expect from a youngster. The negativity has clearlyaffected him and his performances.

Hopefully he's come through that period where he actually pays attention to armchair Twitter managers and starts to focus on his own game properly.

Ox used to be in his position but he's left and Liverpool fans aren't destroying him constantly because they didn't have much expectation and now hes doing better more consistently than he ever did with us.

I havent seen the game today but I've seen some highlights and from that, hes made some telling contributions. Hopefully he grows up and takes the chances he's been given or it'd be better for him to move on and let someone else become the fan punch bag.

Problem is his finishing has always been awful even when he was playing better and it ruins his game cos he can't add goals.
