The 20-year old who has been with the Gunners since the age of six was brought into Arsene Wenger's senior squad in October 2015 and has kept his place this season.
The Nigerian started the north London derby before the international break, and has been a regular player in the team this term.
Iwobi has maintained that he is bent on retaining his spot in Wenger's plans for the remainder of the campaign.
"I play like it's almost my last game, I treat it like it's my last moment here, so I do my best and I always put 100 per cent into whatever I do," he told Arsenal Player.
"I thought a long time ago that I'd be on loan and probably get experience there before having experience in the first team, but the fact that the boss trusted me to jump into the first team as quick as I did, I'm just grateful for it.
"If you don't do as well as you think you could've done, there's other players, other international, great players, that can just step in, he added.
"So you just have to take the chance all the time and do your best when the time comes.
"The big thing is you need to stay fit and always need to give it your all.
