Arsenal and Nigerian-born forward Alex Iwobi’s fine start to the season continued in a London derby at
Craven Cottage as the gunners overran Fulham 5-1.
Iwobi has been in superlative form for the Gunners this season and said they are ready to play any team in the world. He said the team’s confidence is high and their focus is on another level.
“It was a tough start against Fulham that came out and started well, but then they conceded.
The manager picked us up at half-time. Our team spirit is better. “The confidence is definitely better.
We analyse the games a bit more and we’re proving to the fans as well as ourselves that we’re able to
compete for the title,” he said
The manager has given me a lot of confidence, telling me that when I get the ball to be just be positive. Whenever I am called upon to play, I always try to give my best and make sure that I can impose myself on the game.

I don’t know! There were a lot of team goals, but I think the third one, where Hector flicked it, then Aaron passed it. There was a lot of good team play, but it doesn’t matter who scored it, it’s basically a team goal to me. We’re not afraid to play anyone. We’re playing without fear, we want to be consistent and keep it going. But there’s a long way to go. It’s a marathon, so we just have to carry on being consistent.
