for those not following the CONCACAF thread:

Jozy came on as a late substitute tonight

he gave away the ball for a Costa Rica counter-attacking goal

he got a stupid booking in stoppage time, selflessly boosting the USMNTs chances against Mexico by making himself unavailable.

USA lost 3-1

In conclusion, garbageman/10. they'd have been better off with Eddie Johnson

Decent writeup, however Eddie Johnson was in fact in the game. You may not have noticed because he doesn't know how to play, but you also should have noticed because he has stupid platinum blonde hair.

Jozy was motm

Jozy has been awful so far with his chances but Sunderland has to have one of the worst midfields I've ever seen in the Premier league.

Really, there must be dozens of shitcloggers in the MLS who are worth a shot. One of them must be worth seeing if he's able to run in a straight line without falling over.

They could get a mediocre striker from MLS...Robbie Keane and Thierry Henry cost too much though.

He doesn't play in the Premier League though, which is kind of the point of TRP's fascination with Josmer

He will next year. He is currently following the Jozy path of playing in the Dutch league, scoring a ton of goals then having a Premier League team spend way too much money for him. He is even on the same dutch team that Jozy was on.

Have we all become so enraged with Jozy hatred that we can't appreciate a pretty goal? What has this forum come to

Edit: This is talking about the Michael Bradley goal I posted not anything Jozy has done. Jozy has never scored a pretty goal.

"He would've scored A goal by now" that implies 1 goal in 7 games which does not make you a good striker.

If you truly meant he would have scored multiple scores you would have said "he would've scored goals by now". Deep down you knew inside that fat strikers are not good strikers so you limited his goal count to a single goal. So all of this could've been avoided if you simply said "no" to my initial question of "Can you be fat and a good striker?"

No one else seems to have any problems but I will take your inquiry to heart and try to improve so you can better read my posts about Jozy Altidore.

In case anyone was wondering it was the easiest goal I've ever seen in my life. Jozy has looked the worst of any player on either team and got gifted a goal by Edgar Castillo.

Also our first goal was by Zusi who quite literally had to dribble around Jozy's body to score because Jozy fell down for no reason.

Fun fact, jozy is now the 6th all time scorer for the USA! What esteemed players hold this prestigious record for other national teams?

The amazing Kenny Miller, who is currently having a blast in MLS with the Vancouver Whitecaps, is Scotland's 6th top scorer. Truly cherished company.
