Ghana and West Ham forward Andre Dede Ayew has taken a bold step towards becoming a better player for the Hammers by mastering his shooting skills in training.
Ayew who joined West Ham from Swansea City this season, has been bashed by fans for not stepping up his game.
The deputy Black Stars captain decided to master his shooting skills in training on Thursday after scoring two consecutive goals in the Premier League for the Hammers.
Since scoring his first league goal, against Swansea, on 26 December and returning from a successful Africa Cup of Nations campaign with Ghana, Ayew has begun to show his true colours.
Despite not starting in either games, Andre has now scored in consecutive away matches after he netted in the 1-1 draw with Watford, as well as on Saturday against Bournemouth. Not only through his goals has he made an impact but his high work rate and clever movement have made him a threatening game changer for Bilic whenever he comes off the bench.
Saturday’s goal was his third in the claret and blue of West Ham United. Such is his impressive form of late, though, that all of those three have come in just six matches since December 26.
Ayew is now up to five goals in all competitions in that period after he also netted twice for Ghana, against Uganda and DR Congo, during the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations tournament.
Of course, Andre will be hoping to force his way in to Slaven Bilic’s starting XI plans and there is no doubt that if he can continue his goal scoring form of 2017, his call up may not be too far away.
