    Braga and Guimaraes have "decent" support. Belenenses only get a couple of thousand per game.

    Belenenses have scored 7 goals in 13 games, and they still won't give Adu any significant time. What are they waiting for? What they're doing now isn't working.

    Maybe Adu just blows? Anyone think of that?

    couldn't be any worse than what is currently happening. Give Adu a shot.

    Just think of the Adu shirts that could be sold in the USA.

    Good point. They could make a killing if they played him every week and sent jerseys over here for sale.

    i heard he has over 200,000 followers on twitter.

    now if every one of them buy a jersey, that's enough cash for Bele' to buy a super star to replace him....lol

    200,000 people on Twitter would not all buy a jersey. Maybe 1-2% of people would.

    They shouldn't be at the bottom. Too much talent in the squad. They should be somewhere around mid table.

    Not that I'm a big Adu fan, but I did check out is Twitter posts. He recently had a post that said he had a very big career decision coming up soon and he didn't want to blow it. Then, after the coach was fired, there was a post saying how this is complicating his decision.

    I'll guess he is on the verge of coming to end of his Benfica contract by mutual accord. This guy wants to get on the USA NT badly for the WC, and Belenenses isn't providing a platform for him. Now that the coach is gone, he's probably wondering if his situation might change.

    Just a wild guess.

    7 golos marcado e 14 sofrido em 14 jogos.

    I think he should go to Netherlands or go back to the USA. He might be usefull on a team like Hoffenheim as well.

    Help me out. What is "Cluj"?

    *Nevermind. Cluj is a club in Romania.*

    Belenenses has returned Fredy Adu to Benfica. Any guesses where he'll end up now?

    My guess is that he'll rescind his contract with Benfica, but I'd rather see him go to Liga Sagres team that will play him.

    Time will tell.

    Anybody else happy to see these guys in the relegation zone. They should have gone down twice already and have been saved by other clubs off field screw ups. A club this poorly run deserves relegation.

    I recently enjoyed a Pasteis de Belem so much it convinced me to reverse my position on this club.
