Alex Iwobi is a Rising Star

They don't come easy: YOUNG GUNS with a mature head on their shoulders. Back then in the mid 2000s, there was Cesc Fabregas. [Man Utd's Martial has it and Rashford showed glimpses of what he can do including two goals on his debut against Arsenal.] But 19 year old Nigerian forward Alex IWOBI is Arsenal's newly released ammunition for the future. He has been at the club since he was 9 years old and scored his first Premiership goal at Everton in March 2016. He followed it up with his first at the Emirates Stadium in the next match on Saturday 2nd April 2016, a fine low shot after a cutback assist from Alexis on a Day when 9 year old Arsenal Youngsters were paraded at the Emirates (Half Time). You cannot deny the fact that Augustine Jay Jay Okocha's nephew is a rising star. He could as well emulate his uncle and become the Most Entertaining African Player in the Premiership. His rifleman goal celebration is also fitting for a true Gunner! Victory through Harmony...

Three Players Who Could Have Won The Champions League for Arsenal



Arsenal has never won the UEFA Champions League, but the closest they came was in 2006. If Jens Lehmann hadn't been sent off nor Robert Pires substituted in the final against Barcelona, it might have turned out different. The milk spilled already, but there are three players who could have won the UCL for Arsenal if only they were purchased before they actually won it: Rooney (2008), Suarez (2015) and Vidal (?).
