Yeah for whatever reason Hejduk has roughed up Freddy :confused:

I think given the circumstances-being planted on the bench at the start and unhappy about it and all the talk about how he can't play yet-it took a lot of guts and determination for the kid to come out and play in front of everybody like that. So like I said my congrats and respect to the kid that was a hell of a time to show the world what he's got

"He had a very good week of practice and the most important thing is he started to believe in himself," United head coach Peter Nowak said of Adu to the Washington Post following the game. "I can see it in his eyes."

I like the sound of that.

Me too. I hope he can maintain that intensity on a consistent basis. Could this be Freddy's break-out year?

From dcunited.com

"..... but his workrate on the other side of the ball was what really turned heads.

'I think he played great,' said winger Josh Gros. 'But even more than the offense, I was more impressed with how he was playing on defense. He's learned that you've got to play on both sides and he did that tonight, for sure.'

The United coaching staff has harped on this aspect of Adu's game, which takes on added significance in the club's high-pressure, team-oriented defensive approach."



If he keeps this up on defense for a few games it may cause Bruce to come looking.
