Before we start, make sure you’ve already read Matt Harris’s excellent piece on Annor Boateng from a few weeks back. The focus on the piece was largely projection, and what we might expect from Boateng moving forward. There wasn’t a whole lot of dwelling on this past season beyond the setup.
Coming into the season, as was noted in Matt’s piece, Boateng was dealing with the setback of a knee issue which kept him out of full workouts in the early and middle parts of the summer.
The injury, while not serious, coupled with the play of some more experienced players ahead of him, meant Annor was left on the sidelines for much of the season.
