Yep, but then they become irrelevent once they reach their late 20s for some reason. Hope Iwobi is one of the exceptions


thats cos theyre usually 37 by that point

INteresting read.



He's gonna be a 10 and I dont mind him taking over ozil longer term.Biggest talent since jack at the academy. He can play there for sure. He's in the silva,iniesta mould.His footwork and ball retention is pretty good. He's composure is good. Just got to let this guy play and grow. He's scoring and assisting. I dont see any other 20 year old in the league doing the same.

Is he going to afcon?? We need him for squad depth.

He can't be dropped from 10 after a performance like that, put ozil out on the right if need be.

Since nigeria ddnt qualify. Ozil just does'nt start.Perez should play again.Play same team take out elneny(afcon) for coquelin. Since rambo's never fit these days.

Mustafi & ozil can play next home game.

Dont go hard on him.

Regardless of the result of Bournemouth game, im convinced that Iwobi is better number 10 than Ozil from what i have seen at CP game. He is such a warrior!!!11

He's physically very strong which is a bonus. Him and Giroud in the box is a nice physical presence to have.

He looks like he could become a CAM, maybe give him some minutes there moving forward to keep Ozil on his toes.

His future is at CAM, that much is certain. At this point he is first choice backup to Ozil imo
