So..wait...aren't you in Philly? As far as I'm concerned you should be putting hats on heads.:)
Man we should have a Rollerblade Gang Shirts.
Welcome Wagon Rollerblade Gang sleeveless shirts. Ooooooo this could be awesome. There will be wristbands for sure.
He's fast, he's quick, he's got a massive dick ... altidore, altidore !!
Oh another morning where I nearly spit my coffee out (well green tea today)!
what if he doesn't?
:lol: :lol:
$100 says there was no cash, it was a CHECK, so Sunderland isn't lying, there was no cash involved in the deal. ;)
If no money came back we were absolutely fleeced on that deal.
People might think you're kidding, but this kind of "truth" is used in interviews with media all the time. Good reporters followup with "I didn't ask you if cash changed hands, I asked you if Toronto received any compensation over and above the player swapped."
But these days...
I like playing with a traditional CF/Targetman, Jozy can be that. I would like to see Gilberto play along him, or behind him as the 10 to Jozy's 9.
I think it would be a good combo in this league, and I think it would give the team fulcrum for the attack.
I still think that at times we never looked better then with Dichio, because he gave that point of reference in attack that Jozy could be.
Hopefully Bradely could be the same for when we do not have the ball.
Don't overly agree. If Defoe doesn't want to play here then he is worthless to us. We either force him to stay (and play poorly as a result), keep him and never play him (in which case he is worthless anyway) or try and get anything in place of him. If Altidore, on the other hand, wants to play here, then we still come out positive.
By all accounts, Altidore prefers the ball in to his feet. He's a good hold up man, but not a target for crosses. That style can work really well with Gilberto running into channels.
Defoe could be worth a lot more then 11 million if he keeps Sunderland in the BPL. Altidore is a no brainer for us with his current age and being a north American striker. I would have preferred Cubo Torres, but Altidore's physical dominance will allow him to succeed in this league. Similar striker to Gilberto so it's not a match made in heaven but if we get Giovinco then oh... my.... god... look out. If we add 1 playmaking winger and 1 CB I call this offseason a success. GIO is just exceeding expectations and putting us on a LA Galaxy level platform. The Galaxy of the east they would call us.
