Trevor Stephen, a former Everton player, has praised Alex Iwobi for reviving his career at the team.
Iwobi struggled to establish himself at the club after joining from Everton in 2019.
Under manager Frank Lampard, the Nigerian international is currently experiencing a new lease on life.
“A great working environment changes people’s performance and I would highlight someone on this, Alex Iwobi. He had to struggle and struggle and struggle to find his game because we had an unstable environment and a disconnect,” Stephen told Liverpool Echo.
“Now we’ve got a togetherness and the lad looks like a different player. He’s been a shining example of someone who could see that if he got it right here, this is someplace to be.
“He’s stuck at it, ridden the hurdles and now he sets his bar when it comes to standards. He’s also got the ability to go with it and that’s what I see as an example of fundamental changes.”
