leading scorer in the Bundesliga; a leader, bringing 1899 to that league through promotion...
...and we had him. And we looked at him, and evaluated him...how?
What, exactly, did we think we already had that was better than him in terms of the future and development?
We need to fire every scout we have, now. If this kid can totally dominate NCAA in his freshman year, and then dominate the German freaking LEAGUE, we missed something in the middle, the very thing scouts must NEVER miss.

Are you kidding me?
He should have NEVER been at PSG and yes I remember seeing him play. Actually, aside from me and a few other PSG fans whom are also American, how many Americans clamoring about him actually remember when he was there? EXACTLY!!! We had younger youth players better than him at the time, that's what he had better than him for starters. Hell, he was there because Halihozid.. was the coach, you remember our former Bosnian coach? The best thing PSG did for him was release him and he was fortunate to have landed on a side that allowed for him to develop properly. He had no business being on PSG's first team when we had him. I'm happy for him but don't act like the club has screwed up bigtime because they didn't. Um by the way how many top scorers from the NCAA's can you name that are playing for top clubs worldwide? Exactly, so don't go there because it means nothing.

I don't understnad your answer...but, regardless, this is still absolute in its accuracy:
"...If this kid can totally dominate NCAA in his freshman year, and then dominate the German freaking LEAGUE, we missed something in the middle, the very thing scouts must NEVER miss..."
Period.
