Arsenal hero Nwankwo Kanu insists Alex Iwobi still has plenty of room for improvement.
Iwobi has been handed a fresh five-year contract by new head coach Unai Emery, who has already pronounced himself with his first impressions of the 22-year-old.
"In Arsenal you have big, big names," Kanu told the London Evening Standard . “I don't think he sees himself in that way.
“When I talk with him I want him to feel that way. Just because you're younger than the other players doesn't mean you're not a star. He's a star in his own right.
"When he comes to Nigeria he feels the pressure: he's Iwobi, he needs to deliver. With Arsenal he thinks 'ok, there's other names here, no problem'. He needs to change that."
Kanu added: “ Arsenal know the quality he has got and they know he can deliver on that eventually.
“He didn't just become a bad player overnight. If the team isn't doing well it affects everybody. He's a talented player who'll do more and do better for Arsenal ." (Tribal Football)
