Interesting to hear the Gudino national team call-up talk following his last second penalty save in the clásico. Easy to forget that he gave away that penalty after completely taking out Henry Martín and getting no where near the ball.#eltrieng— Tom Harrison (@tomh_36) October 3, 2018

Toluca striker Alexis Vega sad that he wasn’t called up to the Mexico squad. He says he felt he deserved the opportunity. Out of all the younger players, he’s the one whose omission is most puzzling. He is only 20 though. Not like his time won’t come #eltrieng https://t.co/7oJ88Bj78p— Tom Marshall (@mexicoworldcup) October 5, 2018 Alexis Vega, lamentó no ser convocado a la Selección: “Ayer un poco triste pero hoy ya cambié el chip, no se dio y eso es motivación para seguir trabajando. Yo estaba ilusionado con ir a la Selección, me gustaría ir porque me lo he ganado y merezco una oportunidad”.@MarcaClaro pic.twitter.com/oQacOwebFo— Adriana Maldonado (@AdriMaldonadoL) October 4, 2018

Bryan Garnica's @Performance_100 data this season is remarkably bad, and this follows a far from great campaign in 2017-18.Shouldn't be anywhere near starting.#ligamxeng pic.twitter.com/CMS3054rIp— Tom Harrison (@tomh_36) October 6, 2018
Hearing Uly Llanez has agreed a deal to sign with Wolfsburg and Alex Mendez has agreed a deal with Freiburg. Both LA Galaxy Academy products who turned down good offers with the club to go to Germany— keith costigan (@KeithCostigan) October 5, 2018 Both Mexican-Americans, I believe.
Many mysteries in US soccer these days but for me, 1 of the most puzzling is that Efra Alvarez, who's scoring bangers for Mexico's U-17 YNT & averaging nearly a goal per 90 minutes for their USL side, has publicly been ruled out of a spot on the LA Galaxy's MLS gameday rosters.— Charles Boehm (@cboehm) October 4, 2018

Interesting relationship between Beltran and Cervantes in the Chivas midfield once again tonight.Beltran the "6", dropping in-between the two centre-backs. Cervantes pushing further forward and supporting a lot of the right.#ligaMxEng pic.twitter.com/3bvkXcjfda— Tom Harrison (@tomh_36) October 7, 2018
