    You're a dope. Not only content to bag on Freddy, but now you're gonna blame Freddy for Agudelo, Shea, Mix all turning out to be mediocre? You are a whack job.

    Found the interview where he talks about that goal against Maritimo btw... but it's all the way back from 2008. Anyway, it's around 03.16 where he talks about it... I thought he also said that in the Blackpool interview, but maybe not... not too much recent interview footage out there with Freddy unfortunately.

    His time at Benfica was definitely the pinnacle. He was playing and scoring goals at a famous European club. The long term trend since then has been down, with occasional short rallies (Turkey, Philly).

    I actually think his career was going quite well until that u23 game against el Salvatore. Getting subbed off last minute, then we give up a goal and fail to make the olympics truly gutted him and it's straight downhill after. Dude just gave up. Especially after the hookah pic. Actually when he first got to Bahia he was doing ok, then they refused to play and pay him, but yeh, he's absolutely done now. Not a bad career.

    He kinda was the chosen one until he chose the hookah. Maybe he is the chosen one. He really helped MLS and soccer interest in USA.

    His decision making was the 2nd biggest factor in his career failing. No way he should be a coach.

    Freddy is a pure joy. The others come and go, but he is always with us.

    Adu is the best US player to never have played a WC.
