Altidore fancies USA’s chances against England.
“If England think it will be easy, then they are mistaken. We are prepared, confident and we believe we can win.”
There is a very personal stake for him too. He believes that managers Phil Brown and Iain Dowie did not have faith in him and as a consequence his season at Hull was compromised.
” It’s a special game for me personally. I don’t think the coaches had confidence in me. The English fans didn’t see me at my best but I want to show what I am about and maybe that will give me another option in the Premier League.”
