'I can't keep you happy': Iwobi fires back at Chukwueze over London complaints
After Samuel Chukwueze publicly hailed Alex Iwobi for bringing him to Fulham while simultaneously slamming him for "hiding" the truth about the freezing London temperatures, Iwobi has officially issued his hilarious rebuttal.
The banter between the two Super Eagles stars has become the talk of West London, offering a rare and authentic glimpse into the friendship that fuelled Chukwueze’s high-profile move from AC Milan.
“I Can’t Keep You Happy Bro”
As Chukwueze continued to lament the biting cold that accompanies life in the Premier League, Iwobi decided he had heard enough of the shivering winger’s grievances.
In a witty exchange that perfectly captures their close bond, Iwobi made it clear that his responsibilities as a friend do not include controlling the United Kingdom’s climate.
“I can’t keep you happy bro,” Iwobi replied, laughing off the accusation that he had somehow deceived his teammate about the weather.
The response from the former Arsenal and Everton man suggests that while he was happy to facilitate the career-saving transfer, he is officially retiring from his role as Chukwueze’s personal concierge and weather forecaster.
Chukwueze, never one to let a teammate have the final say, was quick with a sharp retort of his own.
Despite his gratitude for the move that has seen him rediscover his world-class form, he seems determined to navigate the cold on his own terms from now on.
“This time keep around just keep yourself happy,” Chukwueze snapped back, signalling a mock truce in their public back-and-forth.
While the two stars continue to trade jabs over thermometers and winter jackets, Fulham supporters are simply enjoying the chemistry.
The arrival of the AC Milan loanee has injected a new level of dynamism into the squad, and it is evident that the comfort level between the two Nigerians is a massive reason for their success on the pitch.
As long as the goals and assists continue to flow, the Fulham faithful will likely forgive Chukwueze for wearing an extra layer of thermal gear during training.
