Frank Lampard's options to replace injured Alex Iwobi and Nathan Patterson Frank Lampard has lost arguably his most productive player for three weeks at a time when struggling Everton's right-back is already out

JANUARY 23, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Takes shot in loss Iwobi took a shot and won one of four tackles in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against West Ham United.

Impact Iwobi wasn't very effective Saturday as his side lost a third consecutive game. He has played almost every minute of Everton's Premier League campaign somewhere across midfield.

Ready to face Southampton Iwobi is fit and in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Southampton.

Impact Iwobi returns early from an ankle injury suffered just over a week ago in the FA Cup. The midfielder takes up a role in the center of the pitch for Everton for Saturday's clash against Southampton.

Could return Saturday Iwobi (ankle) might be available against Southampton on Saturday after manager Frank Lampard told reporters, "Alex is a lesser injury than what we thought so we'll see in the morni...

Impact Initial reports indicated Iwobi could be out of action for up to three weeks but it appears the midfielder may avoid missing any matches entirely. If Iwobi is deemed fit, he should be a near-lock for the starting XI considering he has featured in all 18 of Everton's Premier League contests this season.

Out for at least three weeks Iwobi is set to miss three weeks after suffering an ankle injury during Friday's FA Cup match against Manchester United.

Impact Iwobi was stretchered off the pitch on Friday and is set for an extended period of time on the sidelines. It's another blow to an already struggling Everton side as Iwobi has been a staple in the starting XI.

Stretchered off Friday Iwobi was stretchered off early in the second half of Friday's FA Cup match against Manchester United with a possible ankle injury.

Impact Iwobi was taken down by an ugly tackle and couldn't continue, something that could force him to miss an extended period. For now, he's a doubt for the Jan. 14 contest, though more information should be revealed in the coming week. If he has to miss time, guys like Abdoulaye Doucoure and Tom Davies could see more time.

JANUARY 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Poor form continues Iwobi fired one shot (off-target) and executed three crosses (two accurate) in Saturday's 3-0 defeat at the hands of Bournemouth.

Impact On Saturday Iwobi failed to make an impact to the game on Everton's right wing. After making key contributions earlier in the season the attacking midfielder seems to have lost his form at the moment. It has been four games since his last assist and seven since he found the back of the net. From 15 appearances (all starts) he has scored once and contributed five assists.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes three shots against Leicester Iwobi took three shots and created three chances in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Leicester City. He also made a clearance and won two of two tackles in the match.

Impact Iwobi was active going forward on Saturday but he just couldn't make the breakthrough in to Danny Ward's net. He has played 99 percent of Everton's Premier League minutes this season as he's started all 14 games in midfield, tallying a goal and five assists.

Everton ends 3-game skid with 3-0 win over Crystal Palace

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored his first goal in five months to help Everton beat Crystal Palace 3-0 and snap a three-game losing streak in the Premier League

OCTOBER 22, 2022 • Associated Press

Grabs brace of assists Iwobi recorded two assists on three chances created during Saturday's 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace.

Impact Iwobi located Dominic Calvert-Lewin during the 11th minute to help open the scoring in this contest. He then delivered a neat assist to Dwight McNeil to give his side a 3-0 cushion during the 86th minute. He played the full 90 and was highly effective throughout. On the league season, the midfielder has five assists to go with one goal across 12 appearances (all starts).

OCTOBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

First goal of season Sunday Iwobi registered a goal in two shots (one on target) in Sunday's 2-1 loss against Manchester United.

Impact Iwobi blasted a long-range shot that left David de Gea's helpless to open the scoring, but his strike wasn't enough for the Toffees and Everton still had to settle for a loss. Iwobi has been excellent of late, cracking the scoresheet in three games in a row and racking up one goal with three assists over his last five league outings.

Everton come back to win at Southampton in EPL

Everton has scored twice for the first time this season and come from behind at Southampton to win 2-1 in the English Premier League

OCTOBER 1, 2022 • Associated Press

Records game-winning helper Iwobi assisted once to go with three crosses (two accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Southampton.

Impact Iwobi delivered an excellent cross into Dwight McNeil during the 54th minute to help put his Everton side ahead for good in this contest. Fantasy points weren't terribly easy to come by Saturday in Southampton, but the assist certainly helped salvage Iwobi's output on this particular afternoon. The midfielder is now up to three assists in eight appearances (all starts) this EPL season.

OCTOBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up assist in win Iwobi registered one assist, two shots (zero on target) and one cross (inaccurate) versus West Ham United on Sunday.

Impact Iwobi has forced his way into manager Frank Lampard's squad to start this season with seven straight starts in which he has garnered two assists, six shots (one on target) and 15 tackles (seven won). Despite the strong performances, Iwobi may find himself watching from the bench after the international break now that Abdoulaye Doucoure is fit and Idrissa Gueye has been added to the squad.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Creates four chances Iwobi had one shot (zero on goal) and four chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Nottingham Forest.

Impact Iwobi created four chances moving him to eight total in the opening three matches. The midfielder has yet to earn an assist with those eight chances created, speaking to the poor finishing around him. Despite that, with excellent volume he should find himself blowing past his two assists from the previous two campaigns with Everton.

AUGUST 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Secures place in starting XI Iwobi started 12 straight matches to close out the 2021-22 campaign in which he registered one goal on six shots (one on target), one assist and 17 crosses (eight accurate).

Impact Under new manager Frank Lampard, Iwobi appeared to rediscover his form and secured his place as a mainstay in the starting XI. While places on the pitch will be at a premium, especially if Donny van de Beek can be secured on a permanent transfer, Iwobi should be a regular starter for the Toffees next year. As such, he figures to offer solid top-half fantasy value.

JUNE 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Registered six crosses Iwobi had one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (five accurate), and one corner in Wednesday's 0-0 tie to Watford.

Impact Iwobi may not have led the team in crosses but he certainly made his opportunities count as he racked up a team-high five chances created. Despite the winger's best attempts, he still couldn't help his side break the 0-0 deadlock. Both Iwobi and Demari Gray could be in danger of losing their spot in the starting XI if Dominic Calvert-Lewin features against Brentford on Sunday.

MAY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Earns assist in win Iwobi recorded one assist, one cross (accurate) and two tackles (one won) in Sunday's 2-1 win over Leicester City.

Impact Iwobi has technically been playing in a right-back role over the last two games but it's been more of a wing-back spot while Everton deployed a back-three. If that continues, Iwobi could be a top-half fantasy target versus Watford on Wednesday given his ability to push the attack.
