For sure. He was easily the best player in MLS in consecutive playoffs in 2016 and 2017. A monster in big games and big moments. I've never shook off the feeling that he would've done something with...
There's a lot to say about Jozy, but what stands out for me is that no matter what, I find myself rooting for him.
50 goals in 96 appearances across all competitions for Jozy now. Plus 11 assists in MLS regular season, 4 in the playoffs, and 2 in the VCup.
As far as I'm concerned Altidore wrote his name into Toronto sports lore tonight as one of the city's best playoff performers ever. 7 goals and 4 assists in 11 playoff games now, a...
He's our most important player right now, I think.

He's really in form now. If he can keep this up we're gonna look real scary come playoffs.
I kind of doubt the willingness of MLSE to pay more large transfer fees. We paid $10 million to get Defoe and had to give him away for free to get a return, $3 million for Gilberto who we gave away,...
Comparables from last season:

Dwyer - 28
Wondolowski - 30
Adi - 23 (10 sub appearances though, as Portland rotated strikers often)
BWP - 33
Villa - 29
Kamara - 31
Mid-season, the only option (outside of a trade or transfer) is to waive him, like we had to do before with Gilberto, and we only receive cap/DP slot relief if someone within the league picks him and...
Try trading him to Atlanta. They have the money, start play next year, could like the idea of getting a big name USMNT player to kick start their first season.
I'm of the same mind. He'll be lucky to hit 22 starts this year - it's not enough. Let's not even discuss the possibility that he picks up one of these injuries right before or during the playoffs....
There's been lots of Altidore talk recently spilling into various threads and with the news today, might as well contain it to one place.
