jaja...i remember that hugo was complaining with concacaf for the poor organization of the tournament but to me it was pretty well organized,they got the final that they wanted from the beginning:rolleyes:

[Hecho en Chivas]

va hacer un partido apretadisimo, pero vamos a salir ganando 1-0 o 2-1 :cool:

ya sabemos como juegan estos pendejos, nomas es cosa de paciencia y ke no nos desesperemos.

y porfavor Hugo, ke juege Nery!!!

mal pedo ke no puede jugar el Borrego Torrado. yo pienso ke Arce o Lozano podra tomar su lugar.

I wanna see Lozano out there

[La_Liga]

Any news or info on the Nery debacle yesterday and his hissy fit towards Hugo ?

Also what was the incident with Salcido and his comments towards Hugo recently ?

Did you hear we got Henry :D


Also looking for more info on the whole Nery incident.

[Manoro3]

Hejduk y el hijo del técnico estadounidense están suspendidos, el primero por doble amarilla y el segundo por haber sido expulsado ante Canadá.

Magallón y Maza son los indicados para iniciar el partido en la defensa. Márquez ya lleva demasiado tiempo sin futbol y las finales no son para retomar el nivel futbolístico.

Osorio y Salcido por las bandas, Pardo y Arce/Lozano en la contención, Guardado y Medina como volantes. Todo esto se sabe de antemano, más o menos.

En la delantera... Borgetti y otro más.

Quiero creer que ya nos toca.

I was thinking the same thing...

I can't wait to see how both teams look, I wouldn't be surprised if we see an attack minded US squad. Mexico has been gradually improving and are starting to look like the team we all know and love. It's really a shame that Nery didn't play, it would have been nice to see Nery play with Blanco in a game where the team knew what they were doing.

DAMN!

Guardado, Cuauh, Bofo, Venado and Henry up top.

[SoyOllin]

I see what you did there.

[Necaxista]

Who the hell are these gringo players. Ive heard of 3 or 4 but the rest I don't know anything about.

About the game, honestly i'd be very surprised if we won. If we can only score 1 goal against Guadalupe, Honduras, and Panama, it should be easy for their team to shut us down.

Si.....ya sabemos como juegan esos pendejos pero aun asi nos siguen partiendo la madre!! Mas vale que los nuestros se pongan las pilas y jueguen con huevos para que no se repita la historia.

Thanks for the stats!! However, I don't believe they are as relevant going into this match. The truth of the matter is we've been playing like shit this cup and we need to have a 180 turnaround if we want the win. I'll be cheering for El Tri and hoping that they finally deliver the much anticipated performance.

In the midst of our match against the USNT, and the trash talking from Donavan, some US fans, some of us, it's nice to see something like this:
