AZ striker Altidore: US style doesn't suit players

AZ Alkmaar striker Jozy Altidore admits the USA gaffed with their playing style in defeat to World Cup qualifying opponents Jamaica.

Altidore says the US players couldn't adjust to the possession style game.

"We tried to play a style -- keep possession -- and it didn't work," Altidore said. "I think now we have to play a more free-flowing style on Tuesday. We have to create more chances. . . . We got to keep moving. We've got to get width. We were all kinds of scattered in the middle. We tried to play through the middle, and it didn't work."
