Montes is that one guy with good potential who will always be hindered by injuries. Poor guy.

Pending on the 3rd place game, hat off to Monterrey. Finally a team that doesn’t embarrass the league in the CWC.

 

Pues resulta que Cruz Azul le pagó 6 millones de dólares a Kuri por la carta de Sebastián Jurado. ¿Que no al desafiliar a Veracruz los futbolistas podían contratarse con quien quisieran? ¿No se había acabado ya el Pacto de Caballeros? De plano con esta gente no hay manera.

Layún has been a pretty lousy signing.

 

@THOMA GOL What you think of the game, breh

 

Shame on Layun for having Salah dead to rights and letting him escape. Shame on Layun for making a shitty clearance. Shame on Layun for standing there like a statue on the Alexander-Arnold cross. Oh, wait, that was Gallardo, Vangioni and Nico Sanchez, huh.

 

Ni para salarla son buenos.

 

Shame on Layún for leaving Firmino alone for the score.

 

C'mon now, unless you were watching a different game you know damn well that Layun was right there, Firmino just got the better of him on the play.

 

Layún fell asleep, didn't pay attention to Firmino and the Brazillian slipped past him. Layún should've payed attention.

 

I already said that Layun made a rare mistake and Firmino got the better of him, but ya'll are trying to pin this L 100% on Miguel, though.

 

I could forgive him if he had been all the time with Firmino and the latter had just, as you said, gotten the better of him (hell, that's what happened with the guys covering Salah. They were on him all the time and the Egyptian beat the two with his ability), but Layún's mistake was reaaally bad, no matter how much you try to excuse him..

 

Only useful thing he's done since returning

According to Univision, TUDN generated approximately 50% of all soccer viewership in the US for 2019: Concacaf Gold Cup, Liga MX, MLS, the U.S. and Mexican men’s and women’s national teams, UEFA Champions League and more.

Univision losing World Cup rights probably lead to them pursuing CL/EL rights to keep viewership just as high.
