[erdeek]

This is very good news....hopefully this will show other Hondurans and the world that there is some talent in our country. Hope he does well.

I think Hoduran players fit very well into the style of Italian Serie A. Several Hondurenio already proved themselves in Italian teams like Udinese. I see some migratory pattern of Concacaf countries here.

Honduran players - - - - to Italian Serie A / MLS
Jamaican players - - - - to EPL or MLS
U.S. players - - - - - - - to EPL or Germann Bundes Liga / Dutch Eredivisie
Guatemalan / Panamanian / Cuban players - - - - to MLS
T&T players - - - - - - - to EPL / MLS
Costa Rican players - - - - to EPL / MLS
Mexican players - - - - - - Spain / EPL or just stay home.

( Mexican League is so strong actually they don't need to go overseas to develop their players....Rather, good players come from Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Chile ....to compete in the Mexican league.)

This year, WCQ is not competitive, but IMO all the above migrations just point to the steady growth of soccer in Concacaf region...

this is good news for Honduras.. my favorite European Club is Roma, so Ill be keeping track of him and see how he is working out..

[ranciddroog]

its cool to see a CA player in the big time, Im a Juventus fan so its gonna be tough to root for him when roma and juve play but in the rest of the games i wish him luck

I totally disagree with this pattern, here are the MoRado's 5 puntos

NUMERO 1>>> CR has only sent 2 guys to the EPL in the last 100 years.
NUMERO 2>>> Mexicans in england? Borguetti has played like 10 minutes and 45 seconds, and i dont remember anyother mexie there.
NUMERO 3>>>every concacaf country sends players to the MLS, good and cheap players that did not performed well or that wont have a chance in Europe
NUMERO 4>>>Mexican players stay at home because they have a good solid league.
NUMERO 5>>>CR and now Panama are feeding the MFL that is not mentioned there at all.
