    Why isn’t concacaf throwing a fit that the US squad is not an A squad? Yet they gave us shit when we wanted to send an A squad to Copa America.

    They stopped Mexico from sending an A squad because of conflict with Copa but that's it. This will be the first time Mexico has sent an A squad to the Gold Cup that is played in a World Cup qualifying year and they haven't forced Mexico to do anything in past Gold Cups.

    Concacaf should hold all teams to the same standard. whether or not there is a conflict then.

    Because they know that the Nads don’t make them money

    Funny thing though, even if Mexico sent an alternate squad without the Euros they would still make this shitty confederation money

    But yeah, it’s total bullshit. We had so many players in their prime in 2011 and 2015 that I felt could have made a good run in the Copa America but CONCACAF being the greedy fucks they are wouldn’t allow it

    What standard? They also told Costa Rica to go with the Olympic squad to that Copa America, which is all they did.

    CONCACAF didn't say shit about 2015. Mexico decided to send their A team to the Gold Cup because we needed to win it to get to play the CONCACAF Cup and go to the Confederations Cup. It was the FMF and Piojo who decided to prioritize the Gold Cup. Did people forget that in 2017, the equivalent to this Gold cup, we went with Cubo Torres and Martin Barragan?

    By 2017 it didn’t make a difference what team to send considering the Confederations Cup was going away

    Stupid? Could the fmf compensate teams selling players to European teams to incentivize? The more “star” players there are the more games and player jerseys sell.

    Doesn't the FMF derive its power from the owners? That's the problem... They need an FA that's independent from the owners... I doubt they'd give up power though...

    As long as guys like Cota, Hugo González, Orozco, Talavera, etc. keep getting called there is no hope for the younger keepers

    Hell, just look at Jurado and Malagon. Those two got relegated in favor of Memo in the Olympics

    Efra was really good in the first half. Didn’t get the ball much in the second.

    Efrain was ok

    Yeah. Efra was fine. Chaka needs to see the bench, though.

    Chaka is not a national team player. Just not consistent enough. He’s a solid pro, don’t get me wrong, just not a national team player. Efrain was fine, but he’s no Lainez so we can’t expect the same impact. He’s a more talented but less experienced version of Orbelin.
