Alex Iwobi : Wilshere Is A Big Inspiration For Us

Alex Iwobi has revealed that several youngsters in Arsenal ranks try to imitate Jack Wilshere&rsquo;s &lsquo;no-touch turn&rsquo; move during training.<br /><br />The 24-year-old Wilshere appeared for the first time in the Premier League this season in the Gunners&rsquo; goalless draw with Sunderland after recovering from an injury that he picked up during pre-season training.<br /><br />&ldquo;He&rsquo;s brilliant on the ball, he&rsquo;s able to find space and he&rsquo;s the master of the no-touch turn,&rdquo; Iwobi told the Arsenal matchday programme, according to arsenal.com.<br /><br />&ldquo;He doesn&rsquo;t even need to touch the ball, he just shields it with his body and turns away from defenders with ease. It&rsquo;s something that us youth team players used to watch and then try in training.<br /><br />&ldquo;He&rsquo;s a big inspiration for us. A couple of times in training we used to get together and practise the &lsquo;Jack Wilshere turn&rsquo;, but nobody can do it as well as he can!&rdquo;<br /><br />Iwobi was substituted before Wilshere stepped out onto the Stadium of Light pitch on Sunday afternoon.<br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br />
