best young prospects to build a team around

[[e-mail]]

i recently saw this question on www.soccer365.com.  Among the people to choose from were Van der Vaart, Kieron Dyer, Steven Gerrard, and Javier Saviola.  If I had my choice i wouldn't pick any of them because i believe a guy who plays in argentina is better than all of them.  his name is Andres D'Alessandro, he is 20 years old and dribbles circles around opponents.  the specific team is river plate and argentine soccer comes on sunday nights on fox sports world.  if you can, u have to see this guy, he will win the player of the year in 5 years, my prediction.

he needs to play in a better league and prove himself before he will be player of the year

He is a good player, if he gets any exposure this year....he will be recruited into one of the European leagues.

D'Alesandro has been receiving attention for the past 3 years from teams around Europe. Last season during the winter transfer window, Juventus attempted to purchase him, but decided not to, since they would have to offload another player due to increasing wages etc. They, however, through negotiations have the "inside track" when talks resume during the offseason. The kid is truly amazing, and, as my name suggests, I really hope he does end up at Juve.

Freddy Adu. if all the hype is true, when this kid is older, he will be the best.

Not if Ronaldo's still around.
