    Freddy Adu

    Remember him?

    Scored a very very fine hatrick tonight in the Fifa u20 world cup. Think alot of clubs over here started thinking he wasn't all that he was cracked up to be.

    Well based on tonights performance i tell you this lad has got something. Check it out if you can

        Watch Aguero in the Argentina u20 match. He's been pretty awesome. 2 goals and 2 assists so far.

          Maybe he was just nervous. He's not highly rated for no reason. Looked really really good

            He was highly rated a couple of years ago. Not so much now.

              Well thats the point of this thread. My point being that in the US he still is. His hatrick tonight shows he has talent. You understand?

                I understand. The point I'm making is that his performances in the (inferior) MLS have caused teams like manure to overlook him. A one-off hat-trick isn't going to fix that. You understand?

                  Lol. Every player goes through good and bad spells. He's very young, skillful and and showing some excellent finishing. Couple of crackers tonight. Capable of matching Aguero and Pato etc

                      Possibly the most overrated, over-hyped player in the game today.
                      Except for Lampard perhaps.

                        I have watched Freddy Adu as a club professional at DC United (and now Real Salt Lake) and as a U-20 for the USA for years, and despite whatever he did tonight, he is too small and too lightweight to even consider. Add to that long stretches where he goes missing, his complete lack of tackling in the midfield, and his lack of competitive fire and I think he's vastly overrated. Do I want him capped in a FIFA sanctioned international for the USA? Yes, as I think its insurance against his eventual growth and his potential. Do I think he's ready to make an impact anywhere? NO.

                            Remember, we're only adding to the nonsense.

                            Walking a lonely road one night, Nasruddin saw riders approaching. His imagination ran riot: he saw himself robbed or killed, so he climbed a wall into a graveyard and hid. Puzzled at his behaviour, the riders, who were followers of the Mullah, followed. Finding him cowering behind a grave, they asked "Great Sage, why are you hiding here?". "It's more complicated than you think" he replied, "I'm here because of you - and you're here because of me"

                              Do you think he would benefit from playing in a more competetive league? I'm thinking of him going somewhere like Newcastle rather than a top team.
