    Baz, do you have severe learning difficulties that prevents you from participating in mainstream society? Bless.

    You have the mind of a simpleton who's opinion is about as worthless as a lump of sticky dog **** on the pavement of my life.

    Therefore, with or without your approval, I will move on to those for whom I have respect and interest in.

    Spot on lad.

    I'm not saying we provide our strikers with gifts every game but he offers nothing at all up front. Once he went off at half time and Borini (with movement and determination) was allowed to run the line, we looked like a threat. Altidore is all too happy to just shrug his shoulders and look at others for his failings. Does he chase lost causes and harass defenders? Does he offer good runs to give the midfield a chance? Does he ever even shoot for ****s sake?

    As for playing for a better team? Only a total footballing idiot would think he is even capable of playing outside of our Championship or one of the lesser leagues in Europe. He has now had the best part of 50 games in the EPL for 2 different clubs and has 2 solitary goals to his name. Thats about as ****e as any strikers stats in the history of the EPL. He NEVER looks like he is going to score. He never gets into positions where he can even have a bloody shot.

    If he starts next week we may as well not bother turning up. He may have use as a 15/20 min impact sub but as a starter for SAFC, I hope we have sen the last of him and sincerely hope he does find another club next season. We looked a far better team with Giacherinni and Borini's movement and striking prowess. Giacherinni has not had similar chances that Altidore has been offered here in games (in his first ever season in England and this league as well) and has double the return as a winger.

    Giacherinni 15 EPL games (2 sub); 2 FA Cup; 4 League Cup - 3 league goals and 1 League Cup
    Altidore 16 EPL games (7 sub); 2 FA Cup; 4 League Cup - 1 LEague goal and 1 League Cup goal


    Its a myth that Altidore gives us a better dimension playing as that linking striker as well, as proven at Arsenal yesterday when the moment he went off we looked more fluid and had better chances with faster and more technically gifted players in Giacherinni and Borini up front.

    The ball stuck to Altidore more than most of the players yesterday. players like ki, Bridcutt & Virgin were donkeys but I don't see them getting stick.

    based on yesterdays game only, I'd drop most of the bloody team.

    I've seen people saying Bridcutt is out of his depth, Altidore was **** and other individuals been picked out. But the simple fact is, not a single player (starting 11) had a good time yesterday. All of them need a good long look at themselves after the performance yesterday.

    Danny Graham had a good record in the championship and premiership. Something Altidore has never achieved.

    Steady on mate, you'll have the 'Altidore appreciation brigade' up in arms.

    It's just not working for him, we need to look at alternatives such as Whickham, give the lad the run the Dozy has had and let's see what he can do.

    Bang on mate.

    Wickham has never had the chance that heap of **** has been given. I hope Altidore is gone in the summer. He can take Fletcher with him too <ok>

    Seriously, you people will bash Altidore for taking a dump. He was isolated yesterday, he did nowt no but what do you want him to do when his 9 other out field players don't give a toss?

    Do you want him to play every position? And it's Altidore, plays it square to Altidore, Altidore slips it threw to Altidore, well held up by Altidore, lays it off to Altidore, wide to Altidore, Altidore takes his man and cuts inside, through ball to Altidore, Altidore scores?


    Grow a brain lads. ffs <doh> We play the out from the back, the back four were ****e, worst 4 players on the pitch closely followed by the midfield then the more cut off attackers.

    A very good assessment, we are a better bet at Wembley with some movement , coupled with a bit of guile and commitment, does this sound like Altidore, not at the moment it doesn,t.

    But they don't expect him to miss do they, I was being silly remember. They want him to be ****ing Messi, Toure and Kompany all in ****ing one. The delusion is staggering, His 5m striker (Which is ****ing peanuts these days). But it's ok for people to gang up on him. I take gripe with the performance as a whole and I've got a mod telling me to calm down. He a ****ing dickhead anarl.

    What was he supposed to do yesterday ffs? Take down one of the long punts, beat the whole Arsenal defence and smash it into the net?! ****s sake man, it's not his fault if he gets aimless balls hit up to him with no one around him

    Not saying he was perfect, or even good.. it's just extremely unfair to single out him (something most of our fans do) when no one who started played well, does that mean Colback can't start at wembley? or Alonso? Or Johnson? etc.

    For the record, I'd play Borini up top at Wembley, but that has nothing to do with Altidore, just I think Borini's pace on the counter would be useful
