With all the talk of whether Jurgen Klinsmann should be fired, a major U.S. soccer story may have slipped right past you. And no, if you want this blogger's honest opinion, Klinsmann shouldn't be fired because it's clear that his master plan has yet to take effect and the real issue is that our players aren't sophisticated enough in their football to grasp his methods.
But we digress, the real important story in U.S. soccer was Freddy Adu pledging allegiance for another season in Tampa Bay. So sorry Atlanta or LA FC fans, you can't have him - at least not yet.
And don't think Tampa Bay is done there. As competitor to this blog Soccer by Ives noted in the above link:
The Adu announcement, which was originally reported by Sports Illustrated, comes on the heels of another big offseason move for the Rowdies, who announced on Monday that the club had signed forward Tom Heinemann, formerly of Ottawa Fury FC.
So there you have it. Adu and St. Louis native Heinemann are off to the Bay.
Any questions? What are your thoughts on how you think Freddy and Tom will combine for the Rowdies? Who should Tampa Bay get next? Another guy from St. Louis? Jermaine Jones? Leave your thoughts below!
