First off, Freddy Adu: Is he or isn't he? If this hype is like any other bit of US Soccer Hype™, the answer is he isn't. Perhaps Freddy, Oguchi Onyewu, and Eddie Johnson can start their own premiership team. Don't forget to call Clint Dempsey, guys.
By the way, Dempsey is going to Fulham.
Ah, Fulham. I wouldn't want anyone to think I'd quit following the Cottagers, so it's about time I comment on their early season success. Now you might think that ninth place is hardly anything to brag about, especially when the team finished in 10th last season, but this seems to be a much stronger Fulham side. They win close games, are capable of coming fron behind to claim victory, and unlike last year, they've actually won games on the road.
When Jimmy Bullard went down early in the season, I figured Fulham were going to have a tough go of it. Instead they've insert Carlos Bocanegra in midfield (yes, Carlos Bocanegra) and enjoyed quite a bit of success. Last weeks' victory was probably due to a bit of luck.
Here's hoping the luck keeps up, Brian McBride continues to be productive, and that Fulham continues to play productive football.
What about Real Salt Lake, you ask... well the season ended and then... blah.
I don't think any RSL fans read this blog. And why would they?
