Much Adu About Nothing?: Freddy Adu gets trial at Man U. Is he the next Pele, or Sean Wright-Phillips?

Interesting. From what I read yesterday both Man U and MLS were insisting it wasn't a "trial." I think it is a given that Adu will join the EPL soon. He makes no secret of his desire. I *hope* he ends up on a team other than Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, etc. I think he'll get more actual pitch time with another club. As for the FPP question, I think he is the next Freddy Adu.

I wonder what his transfer rate will be.

If he ever does join an English team, I think it's already a given that every newspaper in the country will report his first game with the exact same headline that niall used.

he should not join man u and do what EL APACHE did join a smaller club so he will be able to get more playing time.
