What four Everton players think of Alex Iwobi in training as transformation continues

Alex Iwobi has been on an incredible transformation at Everton in recent weeks. From someone who drew numerous critics before he'd even taken to a pitch in a match, now he's one of the most important members of Frank Lampard's squad.

It's fair to say that it has taken the former Arsenal man a long time to hit these heights following his switch to Merseyside in 2019. He recently said that playing in his natural position is a big help, but added to that has been the increased confidence he has been afforded.

It's not only the Blues crowd that have sparked that, although the midfielder did remark on a moment in which he was applauded for a misplaced pass recently - with fans appreciating the idea behind his direct attack. It's not just belief from Frank Lampard either, with the new boss keen to play him in a more central role than he's been used to at Goodison park so far.
