Super Eagles Technical Adviser Gerno Rohr has praised the contributions of Alex Iwobi to the national team.
Speaking after the 0-2 international friendly loss against Sebia o Tuesday, Rohr paid tribute to Arsenal midfielder Alex Iwobi,but was quick to add that the 21-year old could do better for the Eagles by hanging less to the ball sometime.
"With us all the time he’s very good, already in Poland [where Nigeria won 1-0] and he was fantastic tonight," Rohr told Standard Sport.
"Perhaps some times [he did] a little too much individually, he wanted to make a show. We prefer collective football.
"But when he can eliminate his opponent,its very good for us.
"He's with us all the time in confidence.He's free when he has the ball.
"I don't know what the tactical options of Arsene Wenger are when he's with Arsenal but with us he's very free offensively and he can show all his qualities," Rohr said.
