With the Arsenal academy graduate starting four of the five games he has been available for, The Frenchman has put his trust in Iwobi this season, and it’s paid off.
With a man of the match display in Arsenal’s 3-0 win over Chelsea on Saturday, There is no doubt this kid is going places.
However, Iwobi admits that he still has a fair bit to learn, but is looking forward to working on his game under Wenger.
“At the moment, because I’m not really the best at defending, [Wenger] says I need to treat it how I treat attacking,” Iwobi told BBC Newsbeat.
“And that’s something that’s really rung true with me. “I love attacking, but I hate defending and it’s something I need to add to my game.
“He [Wenger] is experienced, he knows about the Premier League, he knows about everything.
“It’s such a great feeling to work for him, especially when he’s been at the club for 20 years and has worked with some class players.
“To be involved with that is just crazy. He’s completely relaxed.
“He’s a calm guy, an approachable guy and he knows what’s best for you.”
