He played in the milk cup i think, which had all clubs in the world involved. Manchester United won the under 17 milk cup so he looks good.

Also fancy the U17's game against USA U17's, hopefully the ledge that is Freddy Adu will play, that will be good.

**Frank Cunha** · 29-07-2003, 07:14 PM

hope he can keep up in the world cup in Finland, its hard to find good centerbacks

MUFC · 29-07-2003, 11:18 PM

Is adu going to play in the u17 game vs man united? Any idea frank, im really looking forward to watching him.

Ricochet · 29-07-2003, 11:35 PM

I'm not 100% sure but I do believe that Adu will play in that game.

**Frank Cunha** · 30-07-2003, 12:55 AM

he should, the guy you got watch is in the game Sporting vs Manchester United, 18 year old Cristiano Ronaldo is the whole team, he had another strong game on today game with Brugges of Belgium a game won by Sporting on penalties

MUFC · 30-07-2003, 12:57 AM

a player to watch at next World cup, is also a tall kid

Spector is it, good young player if he keeps up the way and builds up a little muscle he will be in the first team in 3 years or 4.

I saw him at the Dallas Cup when the U-17 played Newcastle's youth team in the U-19 semifinals. Good player. I don't know how most English youth teams are, but he was a rock. Too bad the ref screwed him and the US over with two yellows which porevent him from being in the final.
