Former Arsenal star Alex Iwobi has taken a jab at Tottenham after registering a win over the side with Fulham.
The 28-year-old is a graduate of the Hale End academy, having come through the ranks and staying with the Gunners until 2019.
Alex Iwobi then left to join Everton, a club he spent four years at before making the decision to return to London with Fulham.
A versatile star, Iwobi has started almost every Premier League game for the Craven Cottage outfit, showing his importance to the side.
The latest of those came in a clash with Tottenham, with a result and a reaction that Arsenal fans will truly love.

Alex Iwobi takes jab at Tottenham after Fulham victory
Having come through the ranks at Arsenal, Alex Iwobi knows plenty about the North London Derby and what it means to beat Tottenham.
While he hasn’t featured in that fixture specifically since the 2018/19 season, it’s clear that he still loves the Gunners and loves a win over the Lilywhites.
Taking on Tottenham over the weekend, Fulham managed to pick up a late 2-0 victory to heap pressure on Ange Postecoglou during the international break.
In the aftermath of the win, Iwobi took to social media with some images and posted the caption: “What Do We Think Of…” hinting at a popular chant from supporters, which claims that Tottenham aren’t very good.
Plenty of fans loved it in the comments, with one supporter stating: “Once a gunner always a gunner.”
Another simply added: “King.”
Fans continued with the support in the comments, with one adding: “What a man. Keep flying king.” while another said: “Miss u Big bro.”
Some other fans threw it forward towards another upcoming meeting Arsenal have with Iwobi in the Premier League.
One supporter said: “Always a red, been top drawer this season always thought you’d turn the potential at Arsenal you showed into something tekky just easy on us the on the 1st at the ems ayy my guy. Low us. Up the Fulham European place finish you got this.”
Another said: “Well done Alex! Now, is it too much to ask you take it easy against us next gameweek, but give it your best vs Liverpool?”
It remains to be seen whether Iwobi could haunt his former side in the coming weeks, but for now the supporters will enjoy the jab made at Tottenham’s expense.
