METROSTARS STILL IN FIRST PLACE

[MUFC]

MANCHESTER United could swoop Stateside again and plunder Tim Howard's old club New Jersey/New York MetroStars for highly rated teenage midfielder Eddie Gaven.

The 17-year-old is earning rave reviews in America for his performances in Major League Soccer and the Reds have been put on alert.

Gaven is a six foot creative and ball winning athletic midfielder with the engine to get box-to-box and can score goals as well.

The player, who'll be 18 in October, was born in Hamilton, New Jersey close to Howard's own roots and he became the second youngest player to sign a contract with the MLS last year and the youngest in MetroStars history to make his debut last June against Chicago at the age of 16 years, 232 days.

This season, Gaven has played in all 13 of MetroStars' Easter Conference league matches and has helped his side to the top of the table.

Impact

United's departure into the American transfer market both for young and senior players is proving a successful route for the Reds.

Howard's impact since arriving at Old Trafford 12 months ago for £2.5m has been phenomenal and brought forward the end of Fabien Barthez's days at United.

Another senior `keeper, Ricardo, also had to seek regular football on a long term loan to Racing Santander in Spain because of Howard's stunning success.

The American, no doubt, will have kept manager Sir Alex Ferguson up to date on Gaven's success.

The `keeper has been back in the States this summer on international duty and will also probably have taken in one or two of the MetroStars matches.

Gaven, who scored twice in a 3-0 win in Los Angeles last week, would bolster United's young ranks of Americans which has seen the arrival and impact of defender Jonathan Spector from Chicago Sockers and striker Kenny Cooper from Solar SC in Dallas in the academy and reserve sides.

Szetela who is this guy?

A lot of Manchester United fans are talking about him and see him as a possible future replacement for Roy Keane?

I take it he is a year younger then Gaven?

[Ricochet]

Danny Szetela is a stud. He's already build like a man, a great 2-way CM. He's played more games as a holding midfielder and has been great but when he's played more of an attacking role he's also been outstanding. Many who have seen him play have compared him to a mixture of Edgar Davids and Pavel Nedved.

The kid has a major presence to him and is very smart footballer who is a high energy, hard tackler player.

I would love to see Szetela be Keane's understudy and eventual replacement.

Yes he's a year younger than Gaven and year older than Adu.

that could have thanked us for using the article::

yup Danny Szetela is good. Playing with the u-20 team currently, was close to signing with everton supposedly, but mls is now courting him around. He's signed by adidas as the answer to mr. adu Would only play for the metrostars if he decides to play in mls, because he lives in new jersey. Haven't seen much of him, as the hype around him is no where near the level of adu, which is good for him as he won't be under the same amount of pressure.

[MUFC]

Yeh i really hope he can make the grade, if he can read the game as well as keane he will be a superstar in the making. Its all about fitness and how long he can keep running on that pitch, if he can do that he can be the best.
