So who ever was the one that predicted that Mexican sides wont be able to play their home games in mexico was right. San luis will have to play in colombia. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=642230&sec=global&&cc=5901
I doubt that at these moment specially Chile, will give any territory for Mexican Teams to play. After all Chile has Everton waiting in the list in case Mexico its out. Bolivia might be their only chance. Besides Chivas player said they were been mistreated in Chile.
Futjol, I'm Grêmio's supporter, really don't know much about San Martin from Peru, so you can tell what's their strong field and players? I'm glad we didn't meet Defensor, it was difficult for us to pass by in 2007. In fact, this year Grêmio has a better team than 2007, that year the media in Brazil thought we would go to Serie B. Now we have a team with more options and it seems they're all focused. It's a pity although we don't have a coach. Hahaha, yes, the first of all 32 Libertadores teams is without a coach right now.
*Off-Topic* ^^^Question, there were some rumors swirling that Germio were after Bolivian '10' for aurora Julio Cesar Hurtado. Do you know if they are still interested?
San Martin real potential is that it has the same basic players since Rivera has taking command as head coach. Which is about 3 years now, that basically most of players have stayed. There potential is that they play as a team, they have not lost a single game as locals since last Copa Libertadores against la U.Catolica, and in the Peruvian tournament they only lost locally against Universitario. It is a tough team to beat at Home but as visitor it lacks potential. Main Players Hinostroza (Although he has not been playing regularly lately), Ludueña, Butron, Pedro Garcia is a fast player, Quinteros is their brain in the team but he has not been playing well lately and has an injury. Worst player on the first squad is Guillermo Salas who plays right back. I believe San Martin will beat Gremio at Home, but in Brasil Gremio will pass to quarter final. In the mean time San Martin is looking for forwards and midfielders.
Yes I read that... Chivas players walking in Chile's streets stated that the locals literally walked away from them when they saw them coming, "here's the Mexicans," as if they were lepers of something. Now I wonder whether that jackass who blew snot and coughed on an Everton player did that with the attitude from Chilean civilians in mind.
