Octavos de Final- como ven los cruces de Copa 2010?

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

Unity does make a great team. hopefully it works out for you. Too Bad our tournament has to suffer for it. So you guys are starting 6-7 weeks out.. Lot of time to figure out what works!!

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

I haven't looked in south africa's squad but that piennar kid for Everton is really good. Last night I heard that Estudiantes might lose 5 players due to offers from europe. Too bad the Copa Libertadores finishes after the World Cup

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

Piennar is probably their best player...plays real well has great skill and class unfortunately the rest of the squad is not so great...they friendlies they have played seem to show the exteme lack of depth they have...

but ne ways yeah...the MNT is affecting our league as well...its been a borefest since they left!

Teams like Chivas Pumas are suffering quite a bit, and like i said Chivas apart from those 5 nt players they have 3 or 4 more injured that were starters as well... expect chivas to play with 1 starter for the remainder of the season or whatever is left for them to play.

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

I wonder if the Maracana will sell out for the Corithians vs Flamengo game?
I heard Flamengo just fired their coach

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

WTF... Don't insult us like that

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

I will tell you this San Luis vs Estudiantes is gonna be one hell of a game you watch. Velez vs Chivas, Velez might have the upper hand but we will see this Wednsday.

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

With that said I am very curious to know which currupted refs will conmebol will send? lol it never fails in the name of AFA

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

Now seeing who Banfield will face their history! Chivas has a good chance against Velez it's not like their facing Corinthians. San Luis vs Estudiantes thats gonna be a good match San Luis have all their players so it should be good game depending on the ref. Then on Wednsday you got Flamengo vs Corithians should be a good one as well I say a Maracana speacial lol. Then Thursday Cruzeiro vs National another good one dam action pack week.

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

With the big difference that Chivas is not fielding reserves and U-20's because they choose to. As a matter of fact there are more players missing due to injury(6 players) than NT duty(5 players). Can you punish a team for having half the team out due to injury? Do you remember Chivas in 2005? They were doing great in Libertadores until it was time for the Confederations Cup and Lavolpe took half of the team. Was Conmebol supposed to do something about it back then also?

And it does make sense when you consider that Aguirre hasn't had a chance to really train local players, he came during the WQC and had to choose from what he already had in hand. He was not going to start from zero when he had no games nor time to practice and get to know what players would work best for him.

And just like Argentina and Brazil don't call Kaka, Messi, etc...Mexico doesn't call Gio, Marquez, Salcido, etc or any of the players that play in Europe. This is only with local players because like i said before Aguirre needs time to practice with the local players, during the WCQ he just had time with the Euro players.

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

Why does it matter, either way if a Mexican team loses your gonna blame it on the refs like you do every year.

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

I find it curious how the mexican teams always somehow are missing all these first team players. It seems like its always the reason for not performing well.

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

I sometimes don't post in this thread but I do read some of the posters comments that are non-Mexican or support a non-Mexican club complain about how the ref screwed their team over the other night so you can't just blame the Mexican club fans and yes their is corruption in the Mexican league with our refs. In the past Libertadores Mexican clubs are mostly the ones to get screwed by south american refs just my thoughts.

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

no, that's la U from peru.

 

Re: Copa Libertadores 2010 discussion - part 2 [R]

a guadalajara mandaron el unico colombiano que viaja a WC: oscar Julian Ruiz


ojala no lleve al juez de linea - con el que viaja normalmente: Abraham
es muy regular y falla a nombre de Oscar.

 

It's hard to underestimate San Luis. They're dead last in the Mexican Clausura (this year called Torneo Bicentenario) and playing very weak football.

They even lost more games at home than those they won (home record: 3W, 2T, 4L).

 

Corinthians x Flamengo will be a great game. Flamengo has to win.

São Paulo is playing very bad nowadays. Our coach is stupid. But I believe.
