Following Alex Iwobi's positive impact in Arsenal's 1-1 draw with Liverpool, Unai Emery has demanded more from the Nigerian. The Super Eagles star came in as a second half substitute and was deployed to an unfamiliar left-back role and the game changed. The 22-year-old provided the assist that led to Alexander Lacazette's equalizer as he canceled out James Milner's earlier strike.

 Iwobi was very influential at his full back position and this led to his fifth of the season since the Spanish coach took over from Arsene Wenger. But Emery has demanded more from the Nigerian international. “Iwobi can impact hard in the match,” he said. “First he started on the right, then I thought he was better left. "His impact in some moments in the match, like our goal, is important. “His energy is important, so is his quality. He can improve. He can do better. "He scored against Chelsea, I want him to be nearer the box, having chances to score more.

“He can. He is very young. He is improving. But also he has the ambition to do more.” The former PSG manager is infamous for his gruelling fitness regimes but Iwobi has revealed how he has benefitted from the Paris St-Germain manager. “You can see from each player we’re giving [a major] shift in work and the intensity,” the Arsenal academy graduate said. “You can see the coach demands a lot, not just in matches but in training, and the results show on the pitch.”
