Altidore has played one game for the first team, has never played in Europe, or against top competition and you're ready to toss him the keys to the car?

I totally agree that he deserves a place in the squad above the Josh Wolffs and Brian Chings. But to say he is our best option is just not true. He isn't battle tested. You have to develop the guy and get him used to playing at a higher level, throw him in as a sub. If shows promise give him a shot after he's proven himself.

He's by far our most talented forward...

    That ain't my fault. We both know damn well Freddy isn't going to sit beside Bradley.;)


    Oh and Altidore isn't on the squad, so technically he can't be our best forward.;)

    Yeah, Freddy is our most talented player without a doubt.

    I understand what you're saying though. But I really think Altidore should at least be in the squad. He showed us last summer that he's capable of playing against some top class sides such as Brazil's young stars, whom I'm sure are better than Barbados' first team. Hell, I'd bet that Austrian U21 could beat Barbados, and Jozy owned that team. I mean, it's not like we're playing Mexico here.

    He's better, more capable than Brian Ching, so even if he was 16 I'd still pick Altidore.

    Lets see if Jozy can kick some sense into Rossi while he's in Spain and bring him to our NT.

    I really really want to watch this game for obvious reasons, so if u have a live stream id kill for a link. Even if we are gonna most likely be completely owned lol.
