Merson slates Everton midfielder Iwobi: Flatters to deceive

Arsenal title winner Paul Merson says Alex Iwobi should be doing more at Everton.

Merson isn't impressed by Iwobi's impact this season.

Merson told Sky Sports: "I'm not his biggest fan, if I am being honest. I think he flatters to deceive.

"But I think he has turned up. He has done well and worked from a base. And his work for the team.

“What he does well is he takes the team up the pitch. When you are in a team that aren't great, Iwobi will get you up the pitch.

“He should get more goals. And he should get more assists."
