Iwobi - My regret from the City game

Alex Iwobi

Alex Iwobi screamed for the ball, received it in a shooting position… and arrowed his effort just over the bar.

It could have been a spectacular winner in the final moments of Sunday’s game against Manchester City, but a draw was probably a fair result.

Here’s Alex’s take on his contribution and the game itself:

on the result…
We’ll take the result but we could have nicked it at the end. I had a good chance to score but unfortunately we’ll have to settle for a point.

on how he tried to make an impact…
I thought I could have added a bit of energy to our attacking force, and that’s what I tried to do. It was an intense game with a lot of aggressive tackles, a lot of running and sprints, so I tried to add energy when I came on.

on whether Arsenal can finish in the top four…
Of course we still have that belief. We believe that we can win every game and that’s the goal, so we’ll take it step by step to see where we end up at the end of the season.

on the point…
It was a very tough match and we were behind twice, so I guess we have to be satisfied with that.

on where he sees Arsenal finishing…
We still believe that we can be in the top four, and that we can be in the title race as much as we can, but we’ll take it step by step and see where we end up at the end of the season.

on whether Arsenal can build on this…
We just came back from the international break and our confidence is slowly coming back. We were able to get a good result against one of the best teams in the Premier League, so the confidence will slowly come back and we have to continue that on Wednesday.

on whether Arsenal need to change anything in their approach…
We’ll let the manager decide what the plan will be for Wednesday, but I’m sure we’ll be able to get the right tactics, the right team and hopefully the right result.
