Alex Iwobi

Key strength: Adaptability

Versatile player

Fulham occupy 11th place in the table—a mid-table purgatory that perfectly captures their WDLLW form: flashes of promise quickly extinguished by inconsistency. Yet amid this turbulence, Alex Iwobi has emerged as Marco Silva's most dependable creative constant. The 28-year-old Nigerian has been ever-present, starting all 26 league matches and amassing 2,107 minutes while delivering 4 goals and 3 assists from his inverted left-wing position. What distinguishes the €25m-rated former Arsenal academy graduate is his remarkable discipline—zero cards across the entire campaign despite relentless attacking responsibility. Cutting inside to link play, Iwobi carries the technical DNA of his uncle, Nigerian legend Jay-Jay Okocha, transforming what was once frustrating inconsistency at Everton into Fulham's connective tissue. Silva relies on his 68-rated pace and dribbling to stretch defenses, while his 70-rated shooting makes him a genuine goal threat. Since arriving in September 2023 on a contract through 2028, Iwobi has become the steadying presence the Cottagers desperately need—tactically intelligent, technically gifted, and the rare wide creator who consistently produces without the chaos.
