Both Gio and Jona named to Mexican prelim WC roster. Not too surprising, I guess. Worth noting that a lot of Mex NT fans don't rate Gio at all and consider him a wasted spot.
So we'll be without Ola for a bit too... Gleder meg👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 @nff_landslag pic.twitter.com/GlcdPsggoI— Ola Kamara (@OlaKamara) May 22, 2018
As a matter of interest and not because I think LAG would stand in Ola's way, are those friendlies on FIFA dates that require us to release Ola, or would we have the theoretical option or refusing.
I think those are the World Cup warm up matches --- obviously for Norway they are just friendlies, just like the US matches on those dates are friendlies. So I would assume those are FIFA dates.
Mexico playing 10 v 10 in training (teams below). Osorio has split the shortened pitch up into five sections vertically and three passing lanes horizontally. #eltrieng #mextour pic.twitter.com/ej2MUhDatW— Tom Marshall (@mexicoworldcup) May 28, 2018 Gio and Jonathan in the midfield
¡Giovani dos Santos podría quedar fuera de la lista DEFINITIVA del Tri 🇲🇽! 😨@Leonlec con TODOS los detalles 👇https://t.co/mfVAekJEC1— ESPN.com.mx (@ESPNmx) May 28, 2018 Gio may miss out
he's not, he made it. I for one am glad we won't see his ass in a Galaxy Jersey for awhile. I am a bit torn as being Mexican-American I have to see this dumbass play for Mexico
GIo and Jona take part in a prostitute party, these guys can't seem to do anything with any professionalism https://www.vanguardngr.com/2018/06/prostitute-scandal-jolts-mexico-world-cup-squad/
Giovani dos Santos with back-to-back starts for Mexico ahead of the World Cup. Who would've thunk that a couple of weeks ago. Osorio will be using him in Russia. #eltrieng— Tom Marshall (@mexicoworldcup) June 9, 2018 Come on Gio!
Increase your trade value! Here's hoping he will have a great cup and that some team will make the Galaxy an offer they can't refuse.
I think Mejico is in trouble this World Cup. I won't be holding my breath they looked awful against Denmark. Gio one chance on goal and Jona losing the ball in midfield just awful.
Yep, Denmark made them look pedestrian and tired, like a bunch of guys sleeping off a hooker orgy. I actually expected more from them. If they play like that in Russia, they will get routed by Germany.
Spain coach sacked over Real Madrid appointment. Absolutely absurd. https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...opetegui-sacked-spain-manager-real-madrid-job
We're talking about an organization that renewed a sponsorship deal a publicly reviled pyramid scheme.
So Jonathan was called up to the mexican national team despite being injured? I wonder if he will somehow be fit for their games.
Even if JDS starts in our next match, I can see him pulling himself from the game, regardless of the score or situation, to preserve himself for the MNT game.
