News: Altidore was omitted from the squad for the goalless draw against Portsmouth, having arrived late for the game and being dropped by Phil Brown - according to a message posted on Twitter by the United States forward.
Analysis: Altidore still has to prove that he is worth a place in the Hull team, never mind your squad.
|
News: Altidore came on as a substitute against Boilton and set up the only goal with his first two touches. But then he missed two decent chances.
Analysis: It could have been the jet-lag - he only arrived in the UK at 6am the day before. The powerfully-built USA forward could be worth watching in the weeks to come.
|
News: Altidore is not available for the home game against Tottenham Hotspur for a variety of reasons. "Between work permits, swine flu scares, international duty, biometric tests, psychometric tests and without even mentioning his passport, I don't think Jozy is going to play any part," Phil Brown said.
Analysis: The forward is due to arrive in the UK on Thursday and may play some part this weekend.
