So you're telling me that you're not taking a look at how a possible appointment of Amar Osim as manager of Bosnian national team would affect FK Željezničar's attempt to win the 6th Premijer Liga title?

awesome breakdown of jozy's performance vs liverpool

Let's just end the non-existent suspense and blurt out that Altidore rang up a grand total of zero in the following categories: shots/shots on target, area entries (via dribble or pass completed to teammate), shot assists, and most annoyingly, defenders beaten on the dribble. No, I do not count the nutmeg on Touré because he did not keep the rock from it. He also only managed a single high-pressure harassment of note.

That may all sound entirely dire for the US striker, but do factor in that he was picked out with a pass facing the area exactly once, found in the area with a pass zero times and never the end target of combo play (for the record, he was the hyphen between give and go on three occasions). Altidore also worked just 70 minutes before departing, and spent the last 10 of them out of left wing.

Still, it remains readily apparent that he is probably the biggest team player on Sunderland, and that he needs to dial that typically admirable trait back a few notches if he ever expects to score in their shirt. Sure, most of their good moves and threatening poses from yesterday came through his grunt work in some way.

Long story short regarding Saturday, without Altidore's ace hold-up work, Sunderland do not come close to the possession edge they held for the first 55 minutes of this game. And amazingly, only one of these plays came during the opening nine minutes of both halves. I swear, sometimes, it seems like this Sunderland team doesn't realize how to play this game until they accidentally do something standard that works.

:heh:
