But around that same time, he was burying hat tricks against Bosnia and scoring against Germany. Confidence matter
That is great and all, but those are both friendlies. Jozy always seemed to be THE GUY that the USMNT needed up top, but the truth is, he only had 1 goal against a decent opponent in a competitive match against Spain in the 2009 Confederations Cup. He scored lots of goals against low level CONCACAF teams like Jamaica, TNT, Panama, etc...but when we needed him the most against good teams in competitive matches, he could never find the net.

Calling that Spain team "decent" is hilarious.

Yeah... injuries suck.
2011 Gold Cup - Taken off roster with injury
2014 World Cup - Injured 25 minutes into first match
2015 Gold Cup - Taken off roster with injury
2016 Copa America - Missed roster due to injury
His prime went up in smoke.
