Its a good squad, I really dont know what Munoz, Carlos Morales and Rojas are doing there. I see this squad missing Blanco, Ochoa, Lozano and Arellano.

Don't tell me that you're surprised, I know I'm not. Lavolpe and him just don't get along and I don't think we'll be seeing him for a while. Team looks good but we could definitely use Lozano and Arellano, maybe Lavolpe will make some changes soon, maybe.

Im not surprised, I was just hopeful. :(

I know everyone says "look how good we played at the Confeds Cup w/o Blanco" yeah, ok good, now imagine that same team with him on the field.

But Bravo might be dropped since hes injured. Ill start the chant...

Guille! Guille! Guille! Guille! (H)

Senior Squad
The match it's not that important anymore.

Both squads are qualified for the World Cup, both squads have proven to be at an exceptional form.


But if you want, just for the "honor", I think the U.S. can win this game.
"Can" being the keyword there.

They'll have to pull something special out for this match, Mexico is not the tactically weak, overconfident team of the past. Being a Football fan, you have to realize that. They have some very skilled players, aside from the younger players who have everything to prove, plus Lapolpe (as much as I hate him) has an excellent idea for this team. If anyone thinks that the game against Brazil (in the Confed.) was a fluke, you need to find a new sport to watch, cause you perception for this game súcks, seriously.

I do follow alot of American players, and I believe this World Cup will be in part their show.
But do they have a strong enough "backbone" to support the pressure of this game?, we'll see.




No Blanco.... :nape:

How about the USA without Donovan, and DMB...
...Just to make it even...

:fool:

Senior Squad
I fell that the USA will want the win more since they were out classed in Mexico and it will be a sell out game so I say the USA will in 2:1. Both goals from McBride and Borgetti will score for Mexico. Oh and as usual Donovan will be invisible during the whole game :S

Is Beasley injured? I expect he'll be there. Should be another good encounter. I predict a draw though, 1-1 to be exact.

BTW it was sorta weird seeing a Mexican play in the EPL. :P

I agree with u on Blanco, Ochoa, Bofo and Guille. Blanco, Ochoa and Bofo have been playing some of the best soccer ive seen out of them in years, nows there chance. And Guilee, well, hes el Guille.

But Martinez, Arellano, Arce and Beltran no. Martinez has been playing like sh*t for about a year now. Arellano just came out of an injury so lets give him some time to get back to his level of play. Arce has never done anything, hes good on Morelia at times but not natl team level. And Beltran maybe, dont know.
