They've still only played 32 games, so it's possible. But they've got six games left and need at least three wins to get out of the relegation zone, more if any of the teams above them win anything, and some of them definitely will. Their remaining games are against Man City, Chelsea, Cardiff City, United, West Brom, and Swansea. The Cardiff, West Brom, and Swansea games should be fun to watch.
Horrible year for Altidore. 27 games, 1 goal, 1 assist. With Sunderland headed down to the Championship, I wouldn't be surprised if they try to sell him. He probably should have stayed at AZ.
