Altidore will not score goals and barely offers a threat. Although he suits the team play that bit more, without a Frank Lampard or a Gareth Bale (players who regularly score goals from other positions, obviously not that level of ability) he is rendered utterly pointless.
Stephen Fletcher has scored goals with little service for God knows how many years. Last season he was one of the main reasons we stayed up. This season despite being unfit earlier on he's still outscored Altidore in the league and far more often wins things in the air and gets the odd half chance. For me, it's a bit of a no brainer here, I just hope Gus twigs soon. We're in a position where we have to utilise the best we have and I'm sure as hell that isn't Jozy Altidore.
