sorry excuse for a player

edit:

I must say, I am not happy with how conte has handled asamoah's training at all.


you would think after how limited asamoah was playing a lwb last season, conte would come up with a plan to a:

make
a) asa more effective taking on his man
b) train asa to be able to cross/pass with his right foot

how many times does asa beat someone, only to turn around try to dribble in outside and towards the box and then pass it back to chiellini?

Actually thought he was in position most of the time considering he was often drifting inside to cover for our CBs. On Bale's goal he had to come way inside to cover for Bonucci and the ball got played way out wide and he had to run out to Bale. Meanwhile, there is no one helping him on Bale's left foot. Pirlo not even in the picture.

Conte , cares very little of the development of Asamoah , he is only interested in strengthing his formation, there by sacrificing Asamoah out of position each time , to make himself look good. Why would you wan't to develop a player who has spent all his years in the midfield. The truth of the matter is many juve fans don't care, and don't know how extremely talented this guy is in the midfield.
There is a reason he was touted Africa's top talent and i mean highly rated especially for his technique. Every now and then Asamoah would show flashes, but he would never be explosive till he is on the midfield his natural position. The guy is simply a don. To watch him cornered as a left back, and limited. It saddens me he is a very humble guy and extremely talented, he excels as a left back. But if Conte can trust him out of position in big games. Why doesn't he ever give him a shot in his natural position in the games.

@kwadman :agree: You'd be surprised to know that a lot of Tuz members actually agree with you.

hes so technical he lost all his duels, im really sick and tired of seeing this guy man the left flank
It isn't his fault he is being deployed out of position and sacrificing himself for the team. I am sure your buddy Zach would disagree though, since he considers him to be the perfect defensive winger/wing-back :D
