Iwobi provided the assist for striker Alexandre Lacazette in the 1-1 draw against Liverpool on Saturday evening with eight minutes left in the game. He had replaced Mkhitaryan in the 68th minute.
Cascarino pointed to the seemingly lack of physical attributes of both players as to why they will not fit in to the Spaniard's style of football.
"Arsenal feel like a completely different club under Unai Emery and one of the main reasons for that is that the fans believe in the team now," Cascarino wrote in the Times.
"Under Emery, they have won more points from losing positions than any other team, so the fans stay with the players.
"But I cannot see how Emery can keep both Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Mesut özil in his team, given that power and tempo seem so important to the way he wants to play. Alex Iwobi has flourished under him and he deserves a starting place."
Iwobi is in line to feature for the Gunners when they take on Sporting CP in the Europa League on Thursday.
