Speaking to reporters in Baku, Iwobi was quoted as saying by arsenal.com : ''This season I’ve been working a lot more on trying to improve my finishing and also assisting my team-mates which is what I believe someone in my position should do to get to the next level.
''I’ve been focusing on that and also in training I feel like my team-mates have been giving me the freedom to express myself, as well as the new boss.
''There’s no pressure or weight on my shoulders. I’m just enjoying my football. The team is enjoying the new style and the new things we’ve brought into training so it’s not just me that’s enjoying playing with freedom, I’d like to say it’s not just me playing with freedom, it’s my team-mates as well.''
Tomorrow's match will begin at 2055 hours local time at the Baku Olympic Stadium in Azerbaijan.
