What a difference a year makes. If you remember last year at this time Freddy Adu was sulking and got suspended as DC United headed into the playoffs. Now it looks like the dear Freddy is ready and poised to take on the New York Red Bulls in the opening round of the MLS playoffs and apparently DC manager Peter Nowak agrees.

Quote:

"Last year, I just felt like I wasn't a big part of this team's offense," the 17-year-old Adu said Wednesday after practice. "I felt like I wasn't a big part of the team, to be honest with you. So I just felt kind of left out a little bit. This year, obviously, I'm a big part of the team's offense."

Quote:

During the regular season, Adu set career highs for games (all 32), starts (29), minutes (averaging 79) and assists (eight). He was picked for the MLS All-Star team.

"Freddy has to thank himself for the way he played this year. Very good stuff," Nowak said. "He understands what the team demands from him and what the coaching staff demands from him and what the expectations are. He's mature enough right now ... and that's why his game is much, much, much better and ... he enjoys himself."

The question now is... Which league does he go to? EPL or Liga? And which team will it be.

I'm betting he end up with Chelsea.

1 more year with d.c. and then he heads over to the epl but i hope for his sake its with a team who will actually play him....someone like reading or middleseborough...so he gets some experience instead of just sitting on the bench

Also, i see on the top of the page they are talking about a "mlslive.tv playoff package"... i seriously hope my season package covers playoff games and i don't have to pay for this now as well.
