    No one is comparing Mexico to those teams. We're simply saying that they aren't a world class team or close to it.

    To be fair Chile has also been placed on a list whose federations can receive sanctions over homophobic incidents by fans at home games. And Chileans are by far more vulgar than Mexicans.

    Can't wait to see the Mexican Federation overreact to this one and fire Osorio.

    Wonder what kind of reception the players are going to get if/when they return to Mexico...

    Okay that means, Paraguay at its best wasn't world class, Chile under Bielsa after 4-0 losses weren't world class, you're isolating a lot of teams who happened to have bad days but on the regular are top contenders. Will you argue against Croatia also being a top side?

    Biggest copa America win was Argentina 12-0 Ecuador in 1942.

    Mexico beat Guatemala, Canada, Honduras, and Jamaica on a regular basis. That doesn't make them world class. They have to beat top teams like Chile, and I'm talking about in competitive matches. Chile just beat them 7-0, then you have Venezuela who should have beat them if Josef Martinez hadn't missed that 1 on 1 to make it 2-0 (and Venezuela aren't a top team either), then you have them losing to the Dutch after dominating them in the World Cup.

    Does Mexico have a good squad? Yes. Not world class, but good, yes. Are they a world class team? No. They would have won the Copa America this time or won it in 2007. 2 years where they sent their first teams.

    Mexico is too bipolar. The key to being a top team is to not get too high after one win and not get too low after one loss.

    Mexicans always act like they won the WC when they do something special. And then the whole country starts raising unrealistic expectations. And all it takes is one loss and the media turns on them and their fans start to boo. It's an unhealthy culture and the main reason they never seem to reach their full potential.

    You hate Chile? I frankly like how they play but I find their players to be low class, vulgar and juvenile and think that they need to humble themselves because their success is going to their heads mighty quick.

    Mexico was introduced to the copa America in 1993, since 1993 we have gone to 2 finals (1993 and 2001). 2001 was Colombias 1st ever Copa America. We have been 3rd place 3 times . In all those times we have been Conmebol teams I believe the only Conmebol team that has a huge win loss ratio vs us is Argentina I dont ever remember beating them in a copa America someone may correct me if im wrong.

    This is not even talking about world cup history or other tournaments just your tournament (the conmebol one).

    To make things fair; since 1993 peru has only achieved 3rd place max

    You're decent. I'm sorry for laughing so much at this. I shouldn't really, I hate Chile. I just don't like it when Mexican fans do the ole against Venezuela 50 seconds in the match, throw stuff onto the field and believe themselves to be the best team in the world.

    We all trade off. It was CR in the World Cup although we had three in R16

    Yeah because Chileans and Uruguayans haven't booed their own team when they've received a smack down... What's with all the put downs on Mexico? I'm actually surprised, other than Uruguay the team most likely for other South Americans to want to lose is Chile .

    Funny I was explaining to my non soccer loving daughter about the horrible chant and the bag throwing as examples of the nastiness of Mexico, but then followed it up by saying this generation of players seems a lot more professional and decent especially Chicharito. He alone makes me like this team a lot more

    Are you sure you aren't talking about Chile? They won the copa America last year and started shitting on all their opponents they faced including writing that bullshit immature letter left in the Peruvian locker room after the victory over Peru in October . Chile is a good team but I think they need to humble themselves down a bit and id say this about Ecuador if they were in the same position as Chile too. It wasn't too long ago that Brazil and Argentina and even Uruguay were taking huge shits on chile's team.

    If Croatia is a top aide, then so are Mexico, CR, and US. That's a big group of Croatia is in it.
