Arsenal's Alex Iwobi Targets Eleventh Straight Win In All Competitions

Published: October 24, 2018

Alex Iwobi has revealed that he is chasing an eleventh straight win in all competitions with Arsenal ahead of Thursday evening's Europa League match with Sporting CP at Estádio José Alvalade (Lisboa).

Since Unai Emery's side lost their first two games in the Premier League to Manchester City and Arsenal, they have won the next ten fixtures, with Iwobi taking part in eight of the games, missing the matches against Cardiff City and Newcastle United only because of illness.

Speaking after Arsenal's 3-1 win vs Leicester City, Iwobi told arsenal.com : ''It's good, let's try and make it 11. That's what we want to do, and I'm sure the fans do too.

''We can't just dwell on it, let's keep on going and better ourselves.''

Although it was an unpopular decision, Iwobi picked up the official Man of the Match accolade ahead of Mesut Ozil in the Gunners' 3-1 win against Leicester City.

The Hale End Academy product has eight appearances to his name in the Europa League and has provided four assists.
