    3-1.
    Their bunker will frustrate us.
    Osorio will bring in extra mid around 70'.

    Should be a 5 - 0 with the main squad

    Osorio will switch everyone up and we'll scrape by with a one nil victory

    Start a proper winger on the right, Profe.

    And please don't waste a sub on a CB for another CB.

    Gonna be another muh defend against aerial threat formation, even though New Zealand are complete crap and if we wanted they would never see the ball.
    Lozano-----------Jimenez-------------Vela
    Reyes----Guardado---Herrera----Reyes
    ------Moreno---Marquez---Araujo---------
    -------------------Talavera---------------------
    Mexico 1-0 New Zealand

    Which of our players got yellows today?

    Anyway, we gotta try to come out with a strong lineup and win this game by however many goals possible seeing as how goal differential can help us in the end

    Need to run up the score as the most likely scenario is that it will determine who advances.

    What time is the game in MEX time?

    Araujo for Salcedo. I like Salcedo and his potential but he's been shaky these past few games.

    What are the chances that Osorio rotates the majority of the XI for this game? i.e. keeper, etc.

    Lets hope that Osorio grows the fuk up and realizes that Salcedo sucks ass as RB and, as such, needs to get benched. I'm realistic i don't expect him to only play 2 CB so I hope that we start our 3 most talented on the squad. Reyes, Moreno, and Araujo are by far the best CB options called up and they should be starting if we continue with the 3 CB lineup.

    We have to win this game decisively because this is the "automatic win" of the group.

    What i expect to see from now on in the typical 4-3-2-1 that Osorio favors

    --------------------------Ochoa------------------------
    ----------------Araujo------------Moreno------------
    ---Reyes-------------------------------------Layun---
    ------------Herrera----Jonas----Guardado--------
    --------Vela----------------------------Raul------------
    -------------------------Chicharito----------------------

    Yes, i realize that Raul isn't a fkn winger or attacking mid but that's how Osorio plays. It makes sense to play Raul there instead of Chicharito who is far better playing centrally than on the wings. I feel bad for Raul but he's actually a better "winger" than Chicharito. Personally i'd rather see Gio, Lozano, or Damm paired with Vela behind our lone CF. Its sad that Osorio is wedded to a formation (single CF formation) and would rather substitute players in unfamiliar roles than play actual wingbacks and attacking mids/wingers.

    Lets all hope that Layun and Guardado start to grow a pair because it can't just be on Vela to create. I also hope that Herrera continues to improve and his fuk ups become less frequent going forward.

    That would be sooo Mexico thing to do. We play to the level of the opponent so we might play like shit for this game.

    They need to a 3 goal difference.. with that, a tie would be enough against Russia.. They should be able to win the group tho..

    If mexico do not win by more than 3 goals, it'll be a disappointment.

    And/or Portugal needs to go in dry on Russia, that would help too.
