Trajectory and accomplishment wise, absolutely. Perhaps above Cuau. But skill and pure talent wise, probably not even top 10.
He’s our top goal scorer of all time. If anything he deserves to be rated higher because he was able to accomplish it despite his lack of “skill & talent” Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t want to work hard. Also his mindset and off the ball movement is world class. Had T&T not destroyed Cuau’s knee who knows how his trajectory would have been.
Times have been much different than they have been during Chicharitos career. I’m not hating on him, he deserves to be up there but there are plenty other Mexican players who didn’t have the chances Chicharito has gotten because of the era they played in.
His dribbling is average, however, his finishing is world class. That's where his talent can be seen. That first goal with Real Madrid. The goal against Argentina in 2010. I could try those 100 times and miss them 100 times. He has talent, it's in finishing, not dribbling. Remember cabrito? He was a great dribbler...couldn't finish and had a terrible shot.
Ehh, I wouldn’t say his finishing is WORLD CLASS. If anything is world class about Chicharitos game, it’s his off the ball movement and I’d even say his aerial game (both in the box). When I think of world class finishing I think of Jose Cardozo, David Villa to name a couple. Players who made putting the ball into the back of the net look too easy under any circumstance.
Imma say it since everyone else is delusional. We didnt play that good, germany is just playing like straight ass. Fire osorio.
Criticable no es hacer cambios de un partido a otro, no si son cambios inteligentes y algunos cuantos. Criticable eran sus locuras de jugar un partido con 4-2-4 al otro con un 5-3-2, y el ultimo con un 4-3-3, con muchos cambios de por medio. Cuando tiene que hacer cambios, no los hace, cuando no tiene que hacer, los hizo de forma exagerada. Hoy se equivoco en todo el planteamiento. Sigue siendo el unico equipo del mundial sin jugar con un 5 natural, no quiso llevar a Vazquez por la estatura. Y seguimos cosechando goleadas que no se daban hace 30 años. Chile 7-0 Alemania 4-1 Suecia 3-0 En fin...
Osorio can either be remembered as the guy who brought us back to the QFs or as the guy behind the 7-0, the 4-1, and the 3-0. None of this "honourable defeat" crap like Lavolpe vs Argentina.
Osorio. Jugar sin un cinco (centrocampista defensivo). Un mal planteamiento. Jugadores improvisados en la defensa.
30 years ago you probably weren't a dream in your fathers balls... Mexico has suffered goleadas to Brasil, Norway, Switzerland in the 90's. That's a little less than 30 years ago. Proceed with your own mini-meltdown doe.
