He'll start next Friday.
Soccer isnt that complicated.
He needs a few hours with Jozy, to have a basic idea on how to time runs. Which he will get.

“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
-Eduardo Galeano
He'll play at least 75 mins, easily.
Here's Jozy's quote about him from a Sun article:
“I think about that (Pozuelo arriving) every day. I think about how he’ll fit, how he’ll play. I think about if he’ll like it here, if he’ll like the guys. I’m very eager to meet him and I just hope he enjoys his time here,” Altidore said. “I think he’s going to be pleasantly surprised at the level (of play) and the facilities and what’s afforded to him, and the lifestyle that he’s going to be able to live, the relevance of the club and the city.
“And so I’m eager to see how he takes it all in and I’m really excited for him to get here and play with us.”

For anyone interested , his introductory press conference is Monday at 2:30 pm, pretty sure TFC will be streaming it.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
What a leader, so happy to have him back.
Wearing the shirt.
Might actually be for real

looks like he’ll be wearing #10.... if the early comparisons and “shoe filling” comments weren’t enough
Poz arriving in mid-season fitness and ready to go - it is great situation for us.
I'm very excited for him. Was watching YouTube videos of him yesterday
The load issue is very real, it took down the whole team in 2018 (remember we only had 6 weeks off, then played a double load).
I think it's an issue for the summer though. That is when the trouble would start, if there was any.
“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
Vanney has already talked about managing his load.
He should be held back from the Orlando game, for example & I could see him not travelling to RSL.
We have away games out west with Vancouver, Seattle, LAG, LAFC, Dallas & RSL. I suspect Poz will only do 3 of those.
If/when they get in one or two new wingers, it will also help with managing Pozuelo's load. It lets them lineup different ways, or even change the formation for part of a game, to give Pozuelo whole or partial games off when needed. And a quality winger adds another scoring threat.
Pozo gets the new signing Raptors treatment. Courtside with Ali Curtis today vs. Charlotte and gets a shoutout on the jumbotron.
"Damn...he's wearing a wedding ring"
