Will Freddie Adu make the USA world cup roster?

No chance....he's too young.  You'll see him in four years.

As to the hype, I think this article by Michael Wilbon from Pardon the Interruption is pretty good: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/19/AR2005101902413.html\n\n  I do think that Freddy is unbelievable for a 17 year old American.  His speed, finishing, and vision is often spectacular.  I think that he is still working on consistency.\n\n  Just as a side note, Theo Walcott, the surprise call up for the England squad is only three months older than Freddy Adu.  With Freddy not going to the World Cup this summer, I think that the best 17 year old in the world is definitely not from the US.

The U.S. team has already reached the depth to compete at the highest level.  With their great young stars, getting experience overseas they are a team that will shine in this years World Cup.  Their performance in the 2002 World Cup was a great start to what looks to be a successful couple of years for the U.S. national team.

World class maybe no but very use full player to have around, I would have him in my team always, cause he brings a lot of high balls down ( no defender can out jump him ), he reminds me of me, maybe that is one more reason I like him. Good luck for England!

No waay. This is the World Cup and not the Euro. Second of all, Greece had skillful players in Dellas, Karagounis, Giannkopoulos, Chariastes, Basinas, etc... Togo only have Adebayor that is worthy of any notice.

Landon Donovan. Adu is only good because of how old he is. If he were the same age as all the other players no one would make that big of a deal about him.

The US has a tough group. With Italy and Czech Republic, two established and proven squads are expected to go through. Ghana is one of Africa's strongest and most unpredictable teams. Getting into the knock-out round would be a great result for the US.\nBest result ot hope for would be a 2nd place for Group E which means they will have to play the winner of Group F, Brazil. While the US Boys have vastly improved, that should be the end of their run.

Ghana who have had exceptional world -class players like Abedi Pele of Marseille,Anthony Yeboah of Leeds United and Eintracht Frankfurt fame but failed to qualify for the World Cup.\nThis time though Fernebahce's stephen Appiah who has great influence on the team will partner with Chelsea's Michael Essien to make the African imprint on the world.\nI know that many will praying against that day butmany more will be seeing it happen live.

Well, they ARE newer to the game of soccer, but they've got a lot of potential.  I can't give them a rating, as of yet...because most of my extra time spent watching is watching MY team, Manchester United..but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, and hope they'll get to the semi-final arena at the very least.  They've got some decent players, Freddie is one, and I truly hope, that the two left playing in the final matches are England and USA.  And if THAT happens...I'll be rooting for both!\n\nPS...yes, I know, got my hopes set really HIGH...ah well, one can only hope, pray and dream! :)

I think DC United (Washington DC) because they have a superstar in Freddy Adu. There are other starts in the league like Landon Donovan, and Dwayne De Resario, but Adu takes the cake.

It's tough to say.  I would say no.  Italy, Czech Republic and Ghana are tough teams and will have stronger fan support than the Americans.  Additionally, the US seem a little overconfident because of their strong performance in the last World Cup.  The only way the US will make it past the first round is if one or two of the other teams play poorly.

Bloody RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\n\nI hope they(USA)get their a**** served to them for breakfast by Ghana. . .which I'm sure is likely to happen. . .they have and never will go far in the World Cup.

As scrolling down the answers, i did see a few mistakes.\nVictor Valdes is not going to the World Cup;\nSpain Goalkeepers - Iker Casillas, Jose (Pepe) Reina, Santiago Canizares\n\nAnd Brad Freidel doesn't play for USA\nUSA Goalkeepers - Kasey Keller, Tim Howard, Marcus Hahnemann\n\nThe one to look out for this summer would have to be Jose Reina, if he gets a game because it is evident that he is playing well recently and he saved a fair few penalties in the F.A Cup Final.
