    Adu still boggles the minds of a diverse audience. One of the many subjects of drunken conversation broached last night at an unnamed Beijing bar with one of my interns went along the lines of "WTF happened to that guy"

    In any case he needs both another agent and a paradigmatic shift in demeanor which is more emulative of a Michael Bradley or myself :rolleyes:

    I think the swap Adu for Kleberson has a hidden clause that both can only play as many minutes as the other does.
     
    Mr Martin repped this.

    I should have said "youth tournaments and friendlies". Freddy did annoy Puyols in that friendly. Bradley wisely took him out at half time as Freddy was starting to receive an unfriendly-like tackle or two which is not something he is equipped to endure.

    says you. there are quite a few examples of Freddy being pulled and the other team saying thank you very much. The most recent Olympic disaster being freshest in my memory.

    Santana is out.

    Also, what's the likelihood that Freddy has more run of play assists in his MLS career than Zusi (21 vs 27 overall)?

    I watched the games and I knew if Adu was doing what he needed to do, it will play itself out. This isn't the MLS.

    Apparently they cleaned house on a number of players but Adu passed the cut.

    Signing Adu seems the last act of desperate coaches about to be fired. 15 different managers?

    It seems like Rosales is coming back.

    Freddy Adu played 30 minutes for Bahia vs Vitoria. Most significant playing time since move south. Latest coaching change could do the trick
