2>1: Why Toronto FC should be using two strikers
Dan Hamilton-USA TODAY SportsSome wise man, in some village somewhere, probably offered the following proverb; If you spend your whole life asking your turtle to be a bird, eventually you’re going to be disappointed. And the turtle is going to feel disappointed that it failed to live up to expectations.
And in the case of Toronto FC; if you spend your time asking Jordan Hamilton to be Jozy Altidore...well...eventually in the 80th minute after his 4th tackle because no one moved around him, a visibly frustrated Alejandro Pozuelo will smack the ground a few times, realizing that for all their best efforts, the other players are not Jozy Altidore.
