Alex Iwobi ready for Manchester City clash

Arsenal’s Nigerian forward Alex Iwobi believes his game has progressed as he looks forward to the Super Sunday clash way to Manchester City.

Ahead of the trip away to the Etihad stadium, Iwobi revealed the hard work he is putting in to get better and also the support he is getting from his teammates.

“The boss always says that for me to earn my spot back, I need to work defensively and add goals and assists to my game, which I’ve been trying to do,” he added. “I’ve been working on that, especially in pre-season. It’s something I have to add to my game to improve it in the long run.

“Everyone [helps] really. If Sead or Hector are behind me, they’ll tell me when to go forward, when to come back.

“They speak to me and tell me where to be. Steve Bould has helped me tactically too.”

Iwobi and his teammates this Sunday will face a Pep Guardiola’s side that have amassed 28 points in their first 10 Premier League games, scoring 35 times and conceding just six.
