Alex Iwobi’s YouTube channel made for good viewing for Arsenal fans as the former Gunner reacted to the North London Derby win alongside Emile Smith Rowe, Calvin Bassey and Ryan Sessegnon.
Arsenal and Fulham have a connection due to former players going on to call Craven Cottage home after leaving the Emirates.
For Iwobi and Smith Rowe in particular, Arsenal will forever provide an element of home, as the duo graduated from Hale End.
Iwobi has thrived since joining Fulham; however, after Arsenal’s 4-1 win over Tottenham, some Gooners will believe that the best thing the midfielder has done in recent times is creating his YouTube channel.

How much did Arsenal’s win vs Tottenham make you believe that we can win the Premier League?
Emile Smith Rowe copies Viktor Gyokeres’ celebration as Alex Iwobi films Fulham squad’s North London Derby reaction
Iwobi’s YouTube channel gives fans a small glimpse of what it’s like to be a Premier League footballer, and it’s fantastic.
The Fulham squad enjoyed a joyous journey back to London after beating Sunderland 3-1 at the Stadium of Light, with the two o’clock kick-off giving the players the chance to watch the North London Derby after.
Iwobi filmed the reaction on the Fulham team coach when Arsenal’s win was on TV, and the footage was what everyone would expect from two boyhood Gooners.
Alex Iwobi and Emile Smith Rowe LOVE Arsenal, if you could sign one of them now, who would it be?
WATCH their reaction to the North London Derby 😆
When Eberechi Eze scored his first goal, Calvin Bassey was jubilant, shouting, “Eberechi, tell them be quiet my boy!”
Iwobi then joined in, taking the opportunity to taunt Ryan Sessegnon, formerly of Tottenham.
“It’s kind of quiet over these sides,” the Arsenal academy graduate cheekily said.
Then Smith Rowe got involved, mocking Sessegnon too, but he didn’t need words to do it.
After Eze’s first goal, Smith Rowe turned to his teammate and copied Eze’s cross celebration, only to do the same when Viktor Gyokeres scored just after half-time.
Iwobi asked Smith Rowe how Gyokeres celebrates, and the former Arsenal man delivered, doing the striker’s mask celebration in Sessegnon’s direction.
It was a reaction that you’d expect from two players who were devoted to Arsenal early in their careers, particularly one who experienced what it’s like to score in the North London Derby.
In 2021, Smith Rowe scored and assisted in Arsenal’s 3-1 win over their rivals, realising a dream alongside fellow Hale End graduate, Bukayo Saka.
Some loves never die, which is the case when it comes to Smith Rowe’s feelings for Arsenal.
