Everton attacker Theo Walcott is delighted to be playing again with Alex Iwobi.

The pair were teammates at Arsenal.

Walcott told Goal: "He's the sort of kid that would settle in anywhere. He's taken to it really well, and what he is doing on the training field is really impressive.

"He's just a hard worker, through and through. At times at Arsenal he was in and out, and he was tried in different positions. Here, I feel he can express himself a lot more and use his attributes, his skills and his energy.

"I'm not the manager, but I feel like he likes to be on the ball, be in the middle of the game and express himself.

"He's a great athlete, he looks after himself. He doesn't come to the gym with me and Mason [Holgate] yet, but I'll try my best! He's a great kid and he's really settled well. I was really excited when he came having worked with him before. I knew he was always going to fit right in."
