EPL: Fulham boss Silva talks up versatile player, Iwobi

Fulham manager, Marco Silva says Alex Iwobi’s versatility makes the Nigerian an important player for the club.

Iwobi has been deployed in different positions by Silva this season.

The 28-year-old further showed his versatility by playing as a defensive midfielder in Fulham’s 2-1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion last week.

The gaffer stated that Iwobi’s versatility makes things easy for him during games.

“Firstly, he’s a really important player for me because he’s really versatile,” he told Sky Sports.

“He can play in many different positions.

I can move him in one football match without making many changes.”
