He only creates chances for the other team. Needs to be the first out the door

Bernard and Iwobi has to be the worst set of wide players in the Premier League #EFC #EVEAVL

Gordon and Walcott on for Bernard and Iwobi, who were both rubbish again.
Forgot Reina was in goal for Villa. Can we send Andy Johnson on instead? #EFC #EVEAVL

First order of business @Everton get rid of Iwobi and Bernard Fraggelrock 😢💙 #EFC #Brutal

Didn't Silva say Iwobi had been scouted for ages before his signing?
Find that harder to believe by the game. Seems an incredibly knee-jerk decision after not being able to get Zaha. #EFC #EVEAVL https://t.co/Kkn2GMsvuh

Iwobi is the most one footed player I’ve seen

Need to improve
Iwobi joined Everton from Premier League rivals Arsenal in the summer of 2019.
The winger has failed to make a massive impact at the Gunners and has proven to be inconsistent.
While there is no doubt that the winger has a lot of quality, he does need to make better decisions on the pitch and also add more consistency to his game.
According to WhoScored, the winger has made 19 starts and six substitute appearances in the Premier League for Everton so far this season, scoring one goal in the process.
