Arsenal were defeated by Watford in the FA Cup but the Gunners bounced back big time in the league and ripped Sanchez Flores’ team part 4-0 at the Emirates today.
Goals from Alexis Sanchez, Alex Iwobi, Hector Bellerin and Theo Walcott helped the North Londoners earn all three points and keep alive their hopes of winning the title.
Once again, young Nigerian international Iwobi was brilliant for the Gunners and was arguably Arsenal’s best player on the day.
The 19-year-old attacker is keeping senior players like Walcott and Campbell on the bench and rightly so. At the moment, Iwobi should start every game alongside world class duo of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez.
Iwobi is a technically gifted player and once again showed his class today against Watford. Arsenal must continue the winning run if they are to stay in the title race.
Iwobi deservedly earned the praise of the supporters yet again who reacted with delight on twitter. Here are a few tweets.
Wow, Özil was flick crazy today, Alexis was unplayable, Iwobi incredible.
Poetry in motion out there today

Classic performance from Iwobi once again. Elneny is a baller & a great partner to Coquelin imo. Alexis was really good today.

Enjoyed that today. Played well. Scored goals. Bit of flair. We should do it more often. Love the way Iwobi is emerging too.

Walcott will have to seat on the bench for a long time come. If Iwobi continues like this thats.

Iwobi all round game is brilliant. The goals he is scoring is the cherry on the cake at the moment.
