Altidore calls for passion at Hull City
Jozy Altidore insists Sunderland must 'show the same effort' at Hull City on Saturday as they did in the Wear-Tyne derby.
Altidore told the Sunderland Echo:"It is a winnable game (at Hull) and we have to make sure we go there and show the same effort as we did on Sunday,."
"It is huge. It is important now to kick on and keep going, not just be satisfied."
Altidore also admitted he is hopeful of striking up a regular partnership with Steven Fletcher in attack after the Scotland forward's early season was hampered by injury.
"It has been difficult for him because he has been out injured a lot and he was only training a little bit until recently," he said.
"It has been great to have him out training again and when he is on the field in match situations it gives everybody else room to operate and be more dangerous.
"We have worked on set-pieces quite a bit so it was nice to see one work out with Fletch scoring.
"We just need to get him healthy and keep him that way."
