Updated: Philly signs Freddy Adu

[Detroit_TFC]

It's been a combo of bad luck and bad decisions with Freddy Adu since leaving MLS. Bad luck in that the manager at Benfica who brought him over left right afterwards (Fernando Santos). Bad decisions in terms of persisting in his European holding pattern at the cost of his USMNT spot at WC. I blame him for this but also his big-fucking-deal agent Motzkin (who is L Donovan's agent too, and Altidore too I think).


EDIT & CORRECTION - Adu has been with Motzkin only for a yr, clearly not responsible for past. In fact Motzkin may have saved him. My bad.
