Arsenal Captain Koscielny Reveals Four Qualities Of Iwobi & Winger's Two Weaknesses

Published: September 24, 2018

Super Eagles of Nigeria and Arsenal whiz-kid Alex Iwobi, has been praised by his club captain Laurent Koscielny.

The young star was rated as one of the best players after his team's Europa League victory against FC Vorskla Poltava and did well when he came on in the second half for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in yesterday's win vs Everton.

Iwobi has been encouraged by Laurent Koscielny, who has listed four qualities of the winger and also mentioned his two shortcomings.

''He has huge potential and he needs to realise how good he could become, '' Koscielny said in his programme notes before Arsenal's Premier League match against the Toffees.

''Right now, he is definitely on the right path to do just that. He is working hard at training and his confidence is high since Unai Emery arrived.

''If you look at him he has everything. He is strong physically, quick, good technically and his movement is good. He needs to be more efficient and clinical so he scores and assists more.

''He is very receptive and listen to advice so I have no doubt that he will continue his progression.''

Since debuting for Arsenal in 2015, Iwobi has been directly involved in 30 goals (10 goals, 20 assists) in 102 appearances in all competitions.
