Ameritoon Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 He was like a dog chasing a balloon today when he tried to dribble I preferred his no shots on target. Always a good stat to maintain when you're playing lone forward. At least his passing and link up play was good...Oh wait...he had the worst pass completion rate of all 20 outfield players and even Mignolet had a better one than him. Big lad though so fair play to him on that. He's done well there. What stats are you looking at? Because they're wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I'm incredibly patriotic. I wouldn't celebrate Rooney scoring against us in a World Cup year. Well no, but we've a wealth of players at the top level and always will do. They have about 4, it's going to mean more to them than us. We don't need to further football in out country. It's just a diff culture. We're big fans of our fourth national sport, and we're gonna support the guys that try and get better for the nation. Pretty much everything that needs to be said.

I wish he would've gone somewhere else, because they're terrible, he gets no service, and we have to put up with all the mindless drivel that comes with him playing for Sunderland.

Ste Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I think the Americans are coming across as biased due to Altidore's nationality. If he were from Germany, their opinion of him as a player would be closer to that of the "small time Geordies". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he were from Germany, their opinion of him as a player would be closer to that of the "small time Geordies". If he were from Germany there wouldn't be a conversation about him of this magnitude. He played well for his previous team, we saw him play very well for the national team over the summer. We like the guy, we hope he does well. We want to win the World Cup.

RodneyCisse Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Considering two of them don't play there anymore says it all. Jozy would be better off at QPR or Watford, he could probably hit 10 goals a season in the championship which sure would help the national team out. At least he'd have more confidence.
