Celtic after Adu ?

Surely Strachan would have at least asked about the boys availablity,Mibbees Petrov could go States side.

 

Real Madrid+Chelsea are reported to be after the 17-year-old wonder-kid!! so I can't see the bhoys beating them by getting his signature!!

 

dont be daft we wudnt attract a player like freddy

 

If we got Adu, I would consume my hat.

 

silly question and thread lol

 

No chance only reason he's in the States is because his mum doesnt what him to go to europe

 

dont ask you dont get,you see plenty of ugly guys with really hot women

Like that Chris Evans and Billy Piper
Prince Charles and Di
Dodi Fayad and Di
Will Carling and Di
Kermitt the Frog and Di

 

That would be great, but I see Adu going to Chelsea, United or Real. I want to see Celtic sign an American, the popularity of the club would defiantly go up in the states.

 

he can't sign with a european club until he's 18. FIfa rule against the international transfer of children.

 

Adu said after the MLS season is over he will look to sign with a european club. By then Freddy will be 18.

 

If Adu comes to Celtic i'll join the Orange Order and march every 12th.

 

no chance

 

a-du beleive your talking sh1te

thankyou thankyou im here all night

 

Worst thread eva

 

We already had him on trial a couple of years ago and he did not cut the Mustard!

 

Don't be so sure.

Freddy is.. well,

Let me explain.

He's a kid. with talent, and a crap load of potential. But he has not quite gotten "there" yet. At moments we see flashes of the promise he holds. And he has been working hard with DC United vets like Jamie Moreno, but...

He still has much to learn, as does every teenager in the game, pro or otherwise. Potential vs consistancy is the best way to describe him.

So what does that mean for Celtic..? Well, to be honest, he is not quite up to being a starter for an big dollar EPL Club for awhile. Not that he sucks, just that in the flood of expensive talent he would not shine as bright.

What Freddy needs is playing time, with a solid international club like Celtic. A team he could more likely start with, excel at, and get far moe exposure and skill improvement than bench sitting at Chelsea.

Over here, he has been a star, mainly because young americans can relate to another kid, and as a result he has been a big draw for MLS wherever he plays, and has been one of the only MLS players with lucrative endorsements. If he went to Man U or Real, would that still be the case...?

IMO he would be a good fit for Celtic, and would excel in the SPL, if he gets the chance to keep improving + learning. it would open further doors for him in the coming years (when he turns the ripe old age of 21), and chances are if he is successful, many of his american endorsment contracts would follow with him (as well as gaining many new ones over in the UK).

One last thing is that he really wants to play in the next WC, and the best way for him to ensure a starting position on the 2010 USMNT is if he has been a starter with a good european side.

If we got Adu, Petrov would want to stay. Thats how unlikely we are to getting him

 

In the states the club is well know I was wearing a celtic track suit and a guy came up tae me and started shaking my hand and asking me if he could have a photo ! I asked him if he had heard of rangers an he said who rangers ! Had not a clue ! lol sorry for going of the subject lol

 

He would be classed as a luxury player in the SPL

 

I just seen the title of the thread and laugh...not really a good sign but it's true. Ill saw off my left plum if we sign him.
