+<br>'Yeah, that actually plays a part (in revealing myself),' the Fulham midfielder states.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
+<br>'My papa's in your home and he's most likely heard me. He didn't like that I coloured my hair. I got tired and didn't want to suffice off so I believed let's do something different that no one else has. I literally told the hair stylist to 'reveal [yourself'](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/business/businesspost/) but not too wild. It's wild because it's red and purple at the moment however I like it. My papa's accepted it now so I'm simple.'<br>
+<br>It's a stark contrast from the short-haired 19-year-old who made his Arsenal launching under Arsene Wenger in 2015.<br>
+<br>Iwobi firmly insists that he's always had the frame of mind of sensation like there's more to life than football but has only expressed himself more over the last few years, going to Paris Fashion Week, releasing songs and introducing his charitable structure, [Project](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/naija-news/tv-stations/nta-news/) 17.<br>
+<br>'It's constantly been my pastime to do music, charity work and things in style. But it's only just recently that I have actually been expressing myself a lot more, to reveal people that I am not just a footballer. There is more to life, he says.<br>
+<br>Alexi Iwobi has made his finest start to a Premier League season with five objectives in 15 matches<br>
+<br>The 28-year-old states his multi-coloured braids have actually added to his on-pitch improvement<br>
+<br>It's a stark contrast from the short-haired teen who made his debut under Arsene Wenger<br>
+<br>This weekend, the 28-year-old will have his work cut out as Fulham take on league leaders Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday and on Sunday, he will be back in London feeding 100 families for Christmas as part of Project 17.<br>
+<br>For one day, there will be an AleXpress in Canning Town, his hometown, where everything will be free in a local grocery store.<br>
+<br>'You know what Liverpool resemble - it's going to be an intense game but whether I get cramp or have no hamstrings, I will exist on Sunday,' Iwobi stresses.<br>
+<br>'In the house I was raised in, my father naturally just offered back. To people in Nigeria, to his family and even people in the street - he would just buy bottles of water and give them to neighbours. Seeing how my mum and daddy are has actually  me to offer to others, whether they are fortunate or less fortunate. With the position I am in, I seem like it's just ideal with the impact I have that I return too.'<br>
+<br>Through these efforts off the pitch, Iwobi believes is the trick to his success on the pitch too. The Nigerian has already scored more objectives than in any other season, with 5 in the league for a Fulham side that is simply two points behind fifth-placed Nottingham Forest.<br>
+<br>'As a youngster you wish to do your best to impress the manager and want everybody to know you are totally concentrated on football. But it (freedom) features age, being totally free and not being pressed about unfavorable comments. If it's useful, you don't mind the criticism,' he says.<br>
+<br>'You have to be strong psychologically. Players do well when they're positive and with me, feeling confident to reveal myself on and off the pitch, I nearly feel unstoppable. And when you have [individuals](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/naija-news/legit-ng-news/) that back you, it actually plays a part.'<br>
+<br>Among those individuals that backs him is Marco Silva, who signed Iwobi for ₤ 35M at Everton from Arsenal in 2019, and didn't hesitate when he had the chance to bring him back to London on Deadline Day in 2015. After his brace against Brighton recently, Silva stated it was Iwobi's 'finest season in the Premier League so far' and he agrees.<br>
+<br>The 28-year-old will feed 100 households on Sunday for Christmas as part of Project 17<br>
+<br>Iwobi firmly insists that he's always had the mindset of feeling like there's more to life than football<br>
+<br>Earlier this year, Iwobi ended up being the first Premier League footballer to release a single with his debut tune 'Don't Shoot' and in November released a follow-up 'What's Luv?'<br>
+<br>'I have actually been included in a great deal of objectives, contributing a lot, and defensively I have actually been working well. You could say it's my best start to the season - I just need to keep it going and make sure it's my finest season. That's the goal' says Iwobi, who credits Silva for providing him 'the license to express' himself. 'It's good to have a manager who gives you the self-confidence to do that,' he states.<br>
+<br>Earlier this year, Iwobi became the first Premier League footballer to release a single with his launching tune 'Don't Shoot' and in November released a follow-up 'What's Luv?' which is referred to as an event of his African roots with a mix of Afro-Swing blended with Rap".<br>
+<br>It's also a tune that Silva's enjoying in the dressing room, with Fulham making their finest start to a top-flight season since 2003-04.<br>
+<br>'I do not get it on in the dressing space but when you have team-mates like Calvin Bassey, he just can't help himself, Iwobi exposes.<br>
+<br>'He is tapping the manager to listen to the song. The very first time he (Silva) heard 'What's Luv?' he was simply vibing like, 'is this Alex?' and Calvin was like 'yes it's Alex!' He said it wasn't bad. I know the first time he didn't understand what was stated however he enjoyed the beat. So it's a win-win.<br>
+<br>'Everyone vibes with it and I'm having excellent feedback from the group - even the people who do not speak English as their mother tongue like the Brazilians, they're vibing as well,' includes Iwobi.<br>
+<br>Silva's plan at Everton was to build around the midfielder however he was sacked four months after signing Iwobi. Then Carlo Ancelotti played him out of position while Rafa Benitez barely played him at all.<br>
+<br>Iwobi would take a trip throughout the M62 to Manchester and play seven-a-side with his mates in disguise to enjoy his football again. Now that pleasure has actually been found after his ₤ 22M relocation last year.<br>
+<br>'Everyone's state of mind is one for all and all for one so that's certainly helping us this season. We've been having group meals and bonding which's brought a lot of togetherness, says Iwobi.<br>
+<br>Marco Silva initially signed the Nigerian at Everton then brought him to Fulham later in 2023<br>
+<br>Iwobi will have his work cut out as Fulham take on league leaders Liverpool at Anfield<br>
+<br>'Even when Sander (Berge) and Joa (Andersen) signed, they took us out to eat. We arranged a journey to Paris to clear our heads (after the Wolves loss), came back then went again with the Tottenham and Brighton results. We feel like we're all set to fly and we can do anything together.'<br>
+<br>Another team meal is arranged for midweek ahead of a run of three video games in seven days over Christmas. 'The gaffer wants to take us out. That's another little totally free food so I'm not grumbling,' jokes Iwobi. 'It's actually good. It resembles one big family.'<br>
+<br>But initially, Fulham will head to Anfield with belief, having actually taken points from Arsenal recently and narrowly losing at Man City in October in a video game where Pep Guardiola was complete of credit for Fulham.<br>
+<br>'It reveals we have the ability to take on anyone. We are not frightened. Hopefully it will be the very same versus Liverpool. We are going there to get an outcome,' Iwobi firmly insists.<br>
+<br>Get something at Anfield and Arne Slot's league-leaders may well be hearing 'What's Luv' blasting out from the away dressing room.<br>
