It really hasn’t been the year that everyone thought it would be for Kwadwo Poku. Following the 2015 season, the midfielder was widely expected to play more and make an impact. In Patrick Vieira’s reign, it has been the complete opposite.
Could next week’s Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup match against the New York Cosmos be Poku’s spark to get fired up?
Playing in only six games this year with three starts, the 24-year old has had some trouble fitting in Vieira’s system. With just three shots on target, only one has landed in the back of the net and it was a beauty.
