Frank Lampard has admitted he 'loved' Alex Iwobi's claim this week that he feels 'almost unstoppable' on current form.
The Nigerian midfielder is enjoying the form of his life under Lampard, building on the energy and versatility that proved priceless to last season's relegation survival. The last few months have seen the 26-year-old deployed into a more natural central midfield role, where his intelligence and creativity has provided balance alongside Amadou Onana and Idrissa Gueye.
As each week passes the growth in Iwobi's confidence becomes clearer, and moments like the flick that set up Dwight McNeil in the 3-0 win against Crystal Palace, or the early opener against Manchester United, give an idea of the freedom that the former Arsenal man is now enjoying on Merseyside. Such is the current level of self-belief, that the Everton man admitted earlier this week that at times he feels 'almost unstoppable'.
