Weston McKennie: How the USMNT star recovered from abuse from Leeds United fans to become a key figure at Juventus
The midfielder went from unpopular to irreplaceable in his stellar form for the Serie A title challengers
What a difference a few months makes. From social media punching bag to legitimate Serie A star, it's been a career change for Weston McKennie, whose resurgence at Juventus has been the story of the season so far for the U.S. Men's National Team.
No more fat jokes now. No more cruelty, no more hatred, except for a few bitter fans in England who are blinded by their own frustrations. No, McEnany's rise is undeniable to anyone with a clue. Suddenly, somewhat magically, McKennie became one of the most important players for one of the biggest clubs in the world. #joe soccer
He is now a key component of Juventus, a player who has earned his place in Massimiliano Allegri's favor. It was not given to Him; He grabbed it with both hands. But how did McEnany get here? How did he turn all the hatred at Leeds into all the success at Juventus? GOAL Check it out...
McKennie's final moments in a Leeds shirt were not met with applause. Not even close. The midfielder's six-month loan spell was coming to an end and everyone involved was ready to leave, but instead the fans sang three words: "You fat bastard!"This has become a typical attack by England fans, who quickly became dissatisfied with McKennie. But the truth is, the American never did what he was signed to do and never played the way he signed to play.Leeds United's original plan was for McKennie to play for Jesse Marsh, and in such a system, McKennie was placed ahead of Taylor Adams. Marsh was fired almost immediately. Adams was injured almost immediately. This resulted in McKennie being mistaken for the No. 6 pick by several different managers who were coaching the job each week.In the end, Leeds United were relegated. McEnany? scapegoat. He was someone who could easily be blamed, a player who was leaving the club and didn't stick around to suffer the consequences of the season. The jokes continued on social media throughout the summer, even after he left Leeds United.McEnany is at a new crossroads. His stock price fell to an all-time low after the Leeds defeat. And, when he returns to Juventus, he has some decisions to make.Key Words: Juventus, Analysis, Weston McKennie, Serie A, FEATURES, #Joe soccer
