Altidore
Became first american to score in La Liga.

Villareal are looking to loan him out, but injuries have made that difficult so far.

Re: Altidore
I think he means he is the first member of The Unites States Men's National Team to score in La Liga.

Re: Altidore
Part of me wishes he would've stayed in MLS, but the other part of me is glad he should continue to grow and will help out the national team in the future.

Re: Altidore
as far as i am concerned, Rossi has chosen to be italian.

officially, the title goes to Altidore, as Rossi is listed as Italian bc he plays on an Italian passport.

I know that.

I just think he's a traitor.

Edit: fugazi summed up my feelings pretty well.

Re: Altidore
Rossi has scored before at Villarreal but he is considered Italian as he has chosen to play for the Italian National Team.
