What happened to Freddy adu really is tragic. 30 professional games played at 14. He played 2500 games against grown men at the age of 16.

Hard to imagine a bigger disservice to him than the MLS.

Really do wonder what might have been if he had come up in Belgium or holland where all he had to be is a midfielder and not a savior.

Adu hat trick 2007 u-20 World Cup

Michael Bradley (with hair), Danny Szetela, Robbie Rogers, Dax McCarty, Freddy Adu, Jozy Altidore, Anthony Wallace, Sal Zizzo...

I remember watching this and thinking it was the start of a USA takeover. Look at baby Altidore out there.
