‘A horrendous footballer’ -Everton fans blast Iwobi following his display in the loss to Man City

The Toffees faithfuls have had enough of the Nigerian international after yet another disappointing display from him 

Everton fans want Alex Iwobi out of the club after the Super Eagles star delivered another unimpressive performance in the Toffees loss to Manchester City.

Iwobi joined Everton from Arsenal for 35m pounds in 2019, but he has failed to justify the fee with just three league goals and three assists in 65 appearances since he moved to Merseyside.

And it was more of the same at the Etihad stadium after he came on in the 17th minute for the injured Demarai Gray.

But he failed to have an impact on the game as Everton lost 3-0 in their Premier League clash against the Champions.

The 25-year-old had a pass accuracy of just 64% and failed to manage a single shot. His indecision when in a promising position was also another flaw in his game.

And it appears the Toffees fans have had enough as they took to Twitter to hit out at the Nigerian’s performance.

It is not the first time Everton fans will hit out at Iwobi for his poor performance. Nonetheless, the Nigerian will get another chance to turn things around when the Toffees take on Brentford next weekend.
