Freddie Ljungberg to Sounders FC?!?!

Apparently there is a good chance of this actually happening with an announcement on Tuesday. I think this is a great move. What about you? Good move or not?

 

I'd rather see Freddie Ljungberg to Fulham FC.

 

It's great if it happens but color me skeptical -- do you have any links?

I'd like to see this. It would be a good start for Seattle to have Ljunberg and Keller on the opening day of the franchise

 

It would be great for Seattle, but then Freddie will get hurt and miss 2/3's of the season. The guy is on par w/Reyna in the health dept.

 

GOALSeattle.com has some credible reports from the Swedish media and I just received an e-mail inviting me to be there when a new DP is being announced. All things point to Ljungberg in Seattle.

 

Hey, that's great. This is the most impressive team in MLS, says I.

 

I brought my wife over to the computer and told her Seattle is bringing in a new player... Then I showed her the results from a Ljungberg google image search.

We have our very own underwear model. Its the in-fashion thing to do if you are an aspiring MLS club - dont ya know.

 

Any truth to the rumor he pulled a hamstring getting off the plane?? :roll:

 

Now that its official, I can only ask if he will be healthy. I certainly hope so. Right now I'm in love with the signings that the Sounders have made so far. I just hope that their not playing fantasy football. Overall, I'm overjoyed.

 

ianhux -

I am excited that Seattle has decided to go out and get a decent squad for the first season, but I dont think Freddie was a great choice for a DP. Personally - I feel like the DP should be an out and out striker...

He will be solid - dont get me wrong...

I have brought this up and the feeling is that the French fella will be able to handle the goal scoring. I hope that is the case.

 

I do believe Le Toux will be able to be a consistent goal scorer. His tally in the Open Cup has convinced me of that. That is to say that I do have my reservations about using up the DP slot. I have full confidence in the FO's decisions though (aside from the colors which could be a great deal better). They've impressed me a lot and so for now I'm trusting that they made the right decision about the DP they chose.
