Alex Iwobi is speaking about the [multi-coloured braids](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/naija-news/investigative-news/peoples-gazette-news/) in his hair and how even his hairdo has helped his football in what he views as his finest start to a Premier League season up until now.

'Yeah, that in fact plays a part (in expressing myself),' the Fulham midfielder says.

'My papa's in your 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 cut it off so I believed let's do something different that no one else has. I literally informed the hairdresser to 'reveal yourself' but not too wild. It's wild since it's red and purple at the minute but I like it. My daddy's accepted it now so I'm easy.'
+
It's a plain contrast from the short-haired 19-year-old who made his Arsenal launching under Arsene Wenger in 2015.
+
Iwobi firmly insists that he's always had the mindset of sensation like there's more to life than football however has just expressed himself more in the last few years, going to Paris Fashion Week, launching songs and releasing his charitable foundation, Project 17.
+
'It's constantly been my [pastime](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/nigerian-newspapers/nigerian-tribune-newspaper/) to do music, charity work and things in fashion. But it's only recently that I've been revealing myself a lot more, to show individuals that I am not just a footballer. There is more to life, he states.
+
Alexi Iwobi has made his best start to a Premier League season with five goals in 15 matches
+
The 28-year-old states his multi-coloured braids have added to his on-pitch improvement
+
It's a stark contrast from the short-haired teenager who made his debut under Arsene Wenger
+
This weekend, the 28-year-old will have his work eliminated as Fulham take on league leaders Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday and on Sunday, he will be back in [London feeding](https://www.yohaig.ng/category/nigerian-newspapers/daily-trust-newspaper/) 100 families for Christmas as part of Project 17.
+
For one day, there will be an AleXpress in Canning Town, his hometown, where whatever will be totally free in a regional grocery store.
+
'You know what Liverpool are like - it's going to be an extreme game however whether I get constrain or have no hamstrings, I will be there on Sunday,' Iwobi tensions.
+
'In the house I was raised in, my dad naturally just provided back. To people in Nigeria, to his household and even people in the street - he would simply purchase bottles of water and provide to neighbours. Seeing how my mum and dad are has actually inspired me to provide to others, whether they are fortunate or less fortunate. With the position I am in, I feel like it's only right with the impact I have that I offer back as well.'
+
Through these initiatives off the pitch, Iwobi believes is the secret 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 simply two points behind Forest.
+
'As a child you wish to do your best to impress the supervisor and want everyone to know you are completely concentrated on football. But it (liberty) includes age, being complimentary and not being pressed about negative remarks. If it's useful, you do not mind the criticism,' he says.
+
'You have to be strong mentally. Players do well when they're positive and with me, feeling confident to reveal myself on and off the pitch, I almost feel unstoppable. And when you have people that back you, it really plays a part.'
+
One of those people 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 chance to bring him back to London on Deadline Day last year. After his brace versus Brighton last week, Silva said it was Iwobi's 'finest season in the Premier League up until now' and he concurs.

+
Iwobi firmly insists that he's constantly had the state of mind of feeling like there's more to life than football
+
Earlier this year, Iwobi became the very first Premier League footballer to release a single with his debut tune 'Don't Shoot' and in November launched a follow-up 'What's Luv?'
+
'I have been associated with a great deal of goals, contributing a lot, and defensively I have been working well. You might say it's my finest start to the season - I simply have to keep it going and make sure it's my best season. That's the aim' states Iwobi, who credits Silva for providing him 'the license to express' himself. 'It's great to have a supervisor who provides you the self-confidence to do that,' he states.
+
Earlier this year, Iwobi became the very first Premier League footballer to launch a single with his launching song 'Don't Shoot' and in November released a follow-up 'What's Luv?' which is referred to as an event of his African roots with a blend of Afro-Swing combined with Rap".
+
It's also a tune that Silva's enjoying in the dressing room, with Fulham making their best start to a top-flight season since 2003-04.
+
'I do not get it on in the dressing space but when you have team-mates like Calvin Bassey, he just can't assist himself, Iwobi reveals.
+
'He is tapping the manager to listen to the tune. The very first time he (Silva) heard 'What's Luv?' he was just vibing like, 'is this Alex?' and Calvin was like 'yes it's Alex!' He stated it wasn't bad. I know the very first time he didn't understand what was said but he took pleasure in the beat. So it's a win-win.
+
'Everyone vibes with it and I'm having good feedback from the group - even individuals who don't speak English as their mother tongue like the Brazilians, they're vibing as well,' adds Iwobi.
+
Silva's plan at Everton was to develop around the midfielder however he was sacked four months after signing Iwobi. Then Carlo Ancelotti played him out of position while Rafa Benitez barely played him at all.
+
Iwobi would take a trip across 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 last year.
+
'Everyone's state of mind is one for all and all for one so that's definitely assisting us this season. We've been having group meals and bonding which'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 consume. We organised a journey to Paris to clear our heads (after the Wolves loss), came back then went again with the Tottenham and Brighton results. We seem 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 3 games in 7 days over Christmas. 'The gaffer wishes to take us out. That's another little bit of complimentary food so I'm not grumbling,' jokes Iwobi. 'It's really nice. It resembles one big family.'
+
But first, Fulham will head to Anfield with belief, having taken points from Arsenal last week and narrowly losing at Man City in October in a video game where Pep Guardiola was full of credit for Fulham.
+
'It shows we have the capability to compete with anybody. We are not terrified. Hopefully it will be the same versus Liverpool. We are going there to get an outcome,' 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 room.
