This is a joke, cant even get off the bench down 3-0 at belenenses? Im changing my name soon. I'll put it back when he wakes up and smells the coffee and also stops listening to the morons on BS telling him that he needs to "Bulk out" to become like Messi.

Have I belittled or insulted you in any way? Nope. I just clearly laid out my argument. I've noticed that Adu fans always get mad a resort to name calling, insults and other childishness when they can't explain why as great as they claim Adu to has hardly played in...

He turned 20 and the club he was loaned to, Lorient, didn't play him much either. So he wasn't good enough for...

His two previous performances got great reviews here, on the Benfica forums, and among Belenenses fans. That's good to hear. And hopefully, the ankle knock contributed to his poor play in this latest match. Are the injuries to his predecessors at Belenenses longer term? Or will he be back to...

good point. Have the coaching staff tried Adu at the 2nd striker role yet for the full Nats? I know he has played the attacking/outside midfielder role, but employing him on the shoulder of the last defender might increase his productivity. @import "http://diacache.daylife.com/_static/release-46080/v2/css/daylife/thickbox.css"; DAYLIFE.topicfinderapi_icon = "links_only";DAYLIFE.topicfinderapi_topics_to_link =...
