In competitive fixtures, Jozy has scored a grand total of one (1) goal against a non-poo poo team. Much like his record in the Premier League, in fact.

This isn't fair, he scored a cup goal against PSV during his 2 seasons in Holland.

You guys sure have a lot of words to say about a soccer player you don't care about.

I care a ridiculous deal about Jozy Altidore because I find his vast football wealth offensive

I just watched Match of the Day and Jozy might be the worst striker I've seen in the Premier League in a long time, and that's not even hyperbole. He has no sense of positioning in the box, throws a huff and gives up on moves the minute something goes wrong, is often practically in midfield because he's struggling to get back up field, and doesn't have the technical ability to produce anything when he does get the ball (which isn't often because he's usually busy jogging a mile offside and behind two defenders and then gesturing wildly for the ball).

Here's food for thought imo: the USMNT and Dutch league have ruined him. He's too used to playing against centre-backs who even if they have the technical and physical attributes just don't read the game well enough to cut off strikers in the box, he's put them in time after time, and now he's playing against capable, experienced defenders and they're just a step quicker than him mentally. If Jozy "Big Joze" Altidore wants to succeed, he's gonna have to up the work rate and catch himself back up with centre-backs who aren't converted 100m athletes imo.

I'm not sure about this, though I do think it's really funny how USMNT fans seem to absolutely despise Eddie and forgive every mistake Jozy makes, as if the 2010 World Cup didn't happen, or something.

Its true though Eddie knows his limits and plays within them while Jozy prances around like a ballerina on drugs falling over and being bad

If anyone ever uses the old "but how can he score when playing for such a bad team???" excuse, simply show them a video compilation of bentekes goals for villa last season.

A good striker will find goals no matter what.

Steven Fletcher plays for the same team as Jozy, yet scored 11 league goals last season and 1 already this season in only three appearances. If Jozy was as good as they say, he's certainly be scoring more than Steven Fletcher.

New rule: as the deputy in town we can't do posting about other people's posting, sorry about that but feel free to continue posting about Jozys horrid form.

For me, I am torn. I want the American team to do well, so a good Jozy would be good for that, but also I don't like Sunderland and furthermore Jozy himself. So ultimately I am torn and will continue to update the JozyChart to keep you all informed.

Tony Hibbert would score more goals in Jozy's place.

Jozy wouldn't even make the Scotland squad he's that bad

quote:

On Saturday during a second half barrage of chances for Sunderland that saw both Altidore and Fletcher scored disallowed goals, the duo looked at each other just before a corner kick came in. ‘Fletch’ and Jozy embraced and then high-fived one another, the makings of a partnership is already visible. The Scottish and American double act do compliment each other very well. 23-year-old Altidore is the hold up man, with his brute strength and raw pace, he can get in behind defenses and cause problems. Sunderland top scorer last season, Fletcher has the creative nature and ingenuity to produce the passes Altidore needs to thrive.
