Iwobi also believes that the team is one big family under the Spaniard and the players have enjoyed fighting for each other, as well as for the fans.
”It’s basically a family and we’re all fighting for each other, not just for the manager and the players, but also for the fans,” Iwobi told Arsenal. com
”It’s one big family and we’re always going to fight for each other. We’re putting in an extra shift, not just in matches, but in training as well.
”Unai’s very intense in training and he’s demanding because he knows how good we are. He always wants us to be at 100 per cent, giving our best.
”It’s not just him, though. We know what we expect from each other, so we’re also trying to get the best out of each other in training.”
