Wright said that it’s the kind of intensity that Mikel wants now and he has that.
Ian Wright has been impressed by the progress Alex Iwobi has made since he moved to Everton. He e believes Arsenal needs a player like him.
The Nigerian left Gunners in 2019 as Unai Emery cleared the decks at the Emirates.
He was one of the finest graduates from the club’s Hale End academy, but the Spanish manager thought it was best to sell him at that time.
The midfielder is now playing under Frank Lampard on Merseyside and he is still only 26.
Wright said on the Wrighty’s House Podcast: “I’m just talking about somebody who’s making a massive difference to what Everton need – the work rate, his ball progression, his passing, everything. He’s the pass before the assist, people don’t realise it.
“You look at his work rate. It’s unbelievable. It’s the kind of intensity that Mikel wants now and needs now, we need that, we need somebody who can press like that.”
