Juventus midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah to explode against Chelsea

Juventus star midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah has been in explosive form
By Godwin Nornor Quadzi Jnr.
Juventus star midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah is expected to explode on Wednesday night when they take on Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League at the Stamford Bridge.
The Ghana international will be the key player for the Italian giants even though he will be playing his first game in the competition for the club.
The former Udinese midfielder has been in blistering form since his move from Stadio Fruili to Juventus in the summer and has been the key man in their blistering start to the Serie A season.
He goes into the game against the English champions in fantastic form after climbing off the bench when Juventus were 1-0 down to help them to a 3-1 victory.
Asamoah created the second goal and finally put the game beyond the reach of Genoa after hitting the target in the dying minutes of the game .
The Ghanaian star’s persistent effort earned his side a penalty which was converted by Montenegrin marksman Mirko Vucinic to make the score 2-1.
Asamoah put the icing on the cake when he tapped in a low cross from the right hand side which had taking a deflection to put the score at 3-1.
The midfielder’s current form and silky skills is surely cause some headache for the Chelsea defence after his three impressive outings with Juventus in the Serie A.
The Blues defence has been somewhat of a white elephant this season after their abysmal display against Atletico Madrid with Colombian striker Rademal Falcao in the Super Cup, exposing the frailties of the Premier League side.
Asamoah would be looking forward to taking advantage of the weakness in the Chelsea team to hand Juventus a victory at the Bridge.
The midfielder is widely recognized as Ghana’s top player in Europe this season even though striker Abdul Majeed Waris is making waves in Sweden.

If Kwadwo want to go into the books as one of Ghana’s great talents then, this is it.
He should prove his quality by helping Juventus scale over the Champions.
Essien did his job likewise Christian Atsu. It is Asamoah’s turn today. Go and make Ghana proud.
Make u no put pressure on de boy..e bi so u do wey he com gh aa he no dey fii deliver
Mke u nt put pressure 4 en top..e bi so u do wey he com gh aa he no dey fi perform
Trust him to deliver. Atsu did it, though it was his debut
Trust him to deliver. Atsu did it, though i
im watching the game and asamoah dey bore me fuicking. ah, wetin this. he is playin on the LEFT. ME MAKE TIBOOR FOR THE LEFT. NO PRESSURE. HE NEEDS TO FORCE THE ISSUE. HE EVEN GOT A BALL CLOSE TO THE CHELSEA 18. INSTEAD OF DRIVING THE BALL INTO THE BOX AND TRYING TO INITIATE A PENALTY OR EVEN DRIBBLE THE CHELSEA DEFENDER, ASAMOAH JUST CROSSED THE BALL TO THE LEFT. AABA, HW3, IF HE CONTINUES TO PLAY LIKE THIS, HE WILL BE RELEGATED TO THE BENCH. AH, U ARE A BLACKGUY ON THIS JUVE TEAM N U ARE PLAYING TIBOOR NA SO, WHY? THIS GUY NEEDS TO GET A PSYCHOLOGIST LIKE MYSELF TO MENTOR HIM BCOS I DEY FEAR GIVE AM. THE ENTIRE JUVE PLAYERS ALL MAKE APPREHENSIVE FOR THE GAME INSIDE. JUVE HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO BEAT CHELSEA, BUT THEY ARE TOO CONSERVATIVE, TOO APPREHENSIVE, TOO TIGHT. AH, HOW DO U ALLOW OSCAR, THIS TWETWEPUA PLAYER TO SHOOT N SCORE 2WICE? I BORE FUCKKING. ESP WITH ASAMOAH. AA SHOULD STOP CALLING ASAMOAH TO GBSTAR WE HAVE BETTER , HUNGRY PLAYERS LIKE ABEYIE, WAKASSO, YARTEY, EVEN ODURO OF MLS WHO ARE ALL READY TO PLAY HARD N INITIATE ACTION. ASAMOAH IS NOT PLAYING AGGRESSIVE AT ALL, MASTER BALL NKOAA….INITIATE THE ACTION!
ASAMOAH NEEDS TO INITIATE ACTION N GIVE THE JUVE COACH A REASON TO BRING YIADOM BACK TO JUVE. HE IS PLAYING MASTER BALL TOO MUCH. HE NEEDS TO PLAY LIKE A SLAVE, AND EAT LIKE A KING. FOOLISH BOY!
You are a fool to call him foolish boy. How do µ watch football? Or µ think they jst get up and play anyhow? Idiot if µ wanna criticize go ƒ?r a coaching course and µ will understand ??ã†? we call tactical play imbecile.
troy, wo y3 aboa pii…ABOA BA FUNU. haD THE JUVE PLAYER NOT SCORED THE SECOND GOAL, JUVE WOULD BE GOING HOME AS THE LOSER. KWASIA BA, DID U WATCH THE GAME? ASAMOAH STARTED ON THE LEFT BUT NEVER MADE ANY INROADS AT ALL THROUGHOUT THE GAME. I UNDERSTAND THEY WERE PLAYING TACTICAL N DEFENSIVE, BUT HOW LONG WILL U PLAY TACTICAL N DEFENSIVE WHEN U ARE DOWN 2 GOALS. ASAMOAH IS A GIFTED PLAYER, BUT I SWEAR HE HAS PSYCHOLOGICAL ISSUES. I WANT HIS NUMBER OR EMAIL SO I CAN CORRESPOND WITH THIS GUY. AFTER IM DONE WITH HIM, HE WILL BE BETTER THAN MESSI, TRUST ME.
LETS BE FRANK. ASAMOAH MADE 2 MISTAKES IN THE GAME
MISTAKE 1: WHEN OSCAR GOT THE BALL FOR THE FIRST GOAL, INSTEAD OF ASAMOAH RUNING TOWARDS HIM, ASAMOAH BACKED UP INTO THE 18, AND THIS ALLOWED OSCAR TO SHOOT THE BALL WHICH RESULTED IN THE 1ST GOAL.
MISTAKE 2: ASAMOAH IN THE SECOND HALF GOT A BALL UP TOP THE 18 YARD BOX WITH 1 PLAYER TO BEAT. INSTEAD OF DRIVING THE BALL INTO THE 18 N TRYING TO TAKE ON THE CHELSEA DEFENDER OR DRIBBLE , HE CARELESSLY CROSSED THE BALL. I MEAN…WHY?
masa he plays a in a different position for Juve.not in the exact same position for Ghana. He’s a defender not a full back by any means but that is his job for Juve- he also supports their secondary attach not the main guy since Vidal and Stephan Lichtsteiner are much better up front.
In my opinion that position suits him well since he doesn’t score very often.
