Alex Iwobi is talking about the multi-coloured braids in his hair and how even his hairdo has actually helped his football in what he sees as his best start to a Premier League season so far.

'Yeah, that really plays a part (in revealing myself),' the Fulham midfielder states.
+
['My father's](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/nigerian-newspapers/vanguard-newspaper/) in the house and he's most likely heard me. He didn't like that I coloured my hair. I got bored and didn't want to suffice off so I believed let's do something various that no one else has. I actually told the hair stylist to 'reveal yourself' but not too wild. It's wild due to the fact that it's red and purple at the minute but I like it. My papa's accepted it now so I'm easy.'
+
It's a stark contrast from the short-haired 19-year-old who made his Arsenal debut under Arsene Wenger in 2015.
+
Iwobi firmly insists that he's always had the frame of mind of sensation like there's more to life than football but has just revealed himself more in current years, going to Paris Fashion Week, releasing songs and releasing his charitable foundation, Project 17.

'It's always been my hobby to do music, charity work and things in fashion. But it's only 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 states.
+
Alexi Iwobi has made his finest start to a Premier League season with 5 goals in 15 matches
+
The 28-year-old says his multi-coloured braids have actually contributed to his on-pitch enhancement
+
It's a plain contrast from the short-haired teen who made his debut under Arsene Wenger
+
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 households for Christmas as part of Project 17.
+
For one day, there will be an AleXpress in Canning Town, his hometown, where whatever will be free in a local supermarket.
+
'You know what Liverpool are like - it's going to be an extreme video game however whether I get constrain or have no hamstrings, I will exist on Sunday,' Iwobi tensions.
+
'In the home I was raised in, my dad naturally just returned. To people in Nigeria, to his household and even individuals in the street - he would simply purchase bottles of water and provide to neighbours. Seeing how my mum and daddy are has motivated me to offer to others, whether they are lucky or less fortunate. With the position I am in, I feel like it's only right with the influence I have that I return also.'
+
Through these initiatives off the pitch, Iwobi thinks is the trick to his success on the pitch too. The Nigerian has actually already scored more goals than in any other season, with five in the league for a Fulham side that is just two points behind Forest.
+
'As a youngster you desire to do your finest to impress the supervisor and want everyone to understand you are totally concentrated on football. But it (flexibility) includes age, being free and not being pressed about negative comments. If it's useful, you do not mind the criticism,' he states.
+
'You need to be strong mentally. Players do well when they're confident and with me, feeling great to reveal myself on and off the pitch, I nearly feel unstoppable. And when you have individuals that back you, it really plays a part.'
+
One of those individuals that backs him is Marco Silva, who signed Iwobi for ₤ 35M at Everton from Arsenal in 2019, and didn't think twice when he had the opportunity to bring him back to London on Deadline Day in 2015. After his brace versus Brighton last week, Silva said it was Iwobi's 'best season in the Premier League so far' and he concurs.

Iwobi insists that he's constantly had the mindset of feeling like there's more to life than football
+
Earlier this year, Iwobi ended up being the first Premier League footballer to launch a single with his debut song 'Don't Shoot' and in November released a follow-up 'What's Luv?'
+
'I have actually been involved in a great deal of goals, contributing a lot, and defensively I have actually been working well. You could state it's my best start to the [season -](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/naija-news/naijanews-com/) I simply need to keep it going and ensure it's my best season. That's the aim' states Iwobi, who credits Silva for providing him 'the license to reveal' himself. 'It's great to have a manager who gives you the self-confidence to do that,' he states.

Earlier this year, Iwobi ended up being the first Premier League footballer to release a single with his [debut song](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/naija-news/naijanews-com/) 'Don't Shoot' and in November launched a follow-up 'What's Luv?' which is explained as an event of his African roots with a mix of Afro-Swing blended with Rap".
+
It's also a tune that Silva's enjoying in the dressing space, with Fulham making their finest start to a top-flight season considering that 2003-04.
+
'I don't get it on in the dressing room however when you have team-mates like Calvin Bassey, he simply can't assist himself, Iwobi exposes.
+
'He is tapping the manager to listen to the tune. The first time he (Silva) heard 'What's Luv?' he was simply vibing like, 'is this Alex?' and Calvin resembled 'yes it's Alex!' He stated it wasn't bad. I know the very first time he didn't understand what was said however he took pleasure in the beat. So it's a win-win.
+
'Everyone vibes with it and I'm having great feedback from the group - even the people who don't speak English as their first language like the Brazilians, they're vibing too,' adds Iwobi.
+
Silva's strategy at Everton was to build around the midfielder but he was sacked four months after signing Iwobi. Then Carlo Ancelotti played him out of position while Rafa Benitez hardly played him at all.
+
Iwobi would take a trip throughout the M62 to Manchester and play seven-a-side with his mates in disguise to enjoy his football once again. Now that joy has actually been rediscovered after his ₤ 22M relocation in 2015.
+
'Everyone's state of mind is one for all and all for one so that's definitely helping us this season. We have actually been having group meals and bonding and that's brought a lot of togetherness, says Iwobi.
+
Marco Silva first signed the Nigerian at Everton then brought him to Fulham later on in 2023
+
Iwobi will have his work eliminated as Fulham take on league leaders Liverpool at Anfield
+
'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), returned then went once again with the Tottenham and Brighton results. We feel like we're all set to fly and we can do anything together.'
+
Another group meal is arranged for midweek ahead of a run of three games in seven days over Christmas. 'The gaffer wants to take us out. That's another little bit of free food so I'm not grumbling,' jokes Iwobi. 'It's really nice. It's like one huge household.'
+
But first, Fulham will head to Anfield with belief, having taken points from Arsenal recently and narrowly losing at Man City in October in a game where Pep Guardiola was complete of credit for Fulham.
+
'It shows we have the ability to take on anyone. We are not frightened. Hopefully it will be the exact same against Liverpool. We are going there to get a result,' Iwobi firmly insists.
+
Get something at Anfield and Arne Slot's league-leaders might well be hearing 'What's Luv' blasting out from the away dressing space.
