-



Former Chelsea star, Tony Cascarino has advised newly appointed Arsenal manager, Unai Emery to get rid of forward, Alex Iwobi and seven other Gunners’ players from the club.
Cascarino believes Iwobi will never be rated among top-four Arsenal’s best players.
Iwobi, who is currently with the Super Eagles squad in preparation for their 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, has scored 3 goals and provided 7 assists in 39 games for the North London club this season.
“I don’t think he will ever be a top-four player, which is what Arsenal need,” Cascarino told TheTimes.co.uk regarding Iwobi.
The other six players Cascarino wants Emery to show the exit at the club are “Hector Bellerin, Petr Cech, Shkodran Mustafi, Laurent Koscielny, Calum Chambers, Granit Xhaka, Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil.”

Samuel Chukwueze opened the deadlock after 27 minutes. VAR was used to confirm South Africa’s equalizer scored by Bongani Zungu after 74 minutes, but William Troost Ekong scored one minute from time to send the Super Eagles for the semifinal for the first time since they were crowned champions in 2013. South Africa will leave Egypt with heads high after reaching the last eight despite playing in the group of death, and then eliminating hosts and favorites Egypt from the Round of 16.
