# Arsenal fans troll Tottenham supporters for Iwobi comment

Arsenal fans have poked fun at Spurs supporters on Twitter for how they have been describing former Gunners man Alex Iwobi over the weekend.

Iwobi found himself in the headlines on Sunday for misplacing a pass in the second half that allowed Dele Alli to give the visitors the lead at Goodison Park.

In reaction to the goal, these fans noticed how Tottenham supporters were labelling the Everton man as a ‘former Arsenal player’.

It’s not a good look for these Spurs fans. Obsessed may be the word that springs to mind.

Of course, it’s a bad mistake from Iwobi and one that Arsenal fans will have seen a few times before during his time in North London.

However, this is a player that [completed](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49282957) a £34 million transfer to Goodison Park over the summer.

He is trying to make a name for himself in the Premier League as an Everton player, maybe these Spurs fans should remember that.
