Finally Some Action – Tigers Nab Altidore

By: Matt | August 6th, 2009

Thank Heavens, Finally a Striker

The lesson learned here is that lamenting over an utter dearth of action in the transfer market on the Offside will eventually result in a tremendous signing. As my regular readers will know, Hull do in fact read this blog, since they so far are the only EPL team to allow us use of their crest, and they are also nice enough provide me with exclusive content to post from their City magazine. So to my colleagues at the KC: high five for a super loan pickup.

Now first things first in regards to Altidore. He won’t be the golden child sent by Villareal to score 25 goals and lead us into the Europa League spots. Remember, he is technically unproven in top flight European football, so this will be a stern test. I fully expect him to flourish however. Now I can be accused of bias, as I am a New Yorker, and do support RBNY, so have been following young Jozy for a while now, but I do really feel he can succeed at this level. He has the physical prowess to battle with center backs like the Vidic’s and Ivanovic’s of the league, plus an instinct in front of goal that will serve him well in the fast paced premiership. Now while his service may well be limited at times, I expect him to certainly be a handful for defenses, and chip in with a goal or two every few matches.

So I think that Phil Brown and the Tigers will be realistic in their expectations of Jozy, and the supporters should be as well. It should take some time to adjust, but with all the physical tools required to succeed, and at only 19 years of age, this could prove one of our more astute signings (albeit loan) in a while. Stay tuned for Chelsea on the 15th (wink wink).
