Efrain is still very young. For him to be on the NT at this stage goes to show the kid has talent. Still has plenty of years to grow and develop better as a player. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him abroad in the next 2-3 years
Efrain looked ok first half and awful the 2nd half but I understand he’s young. Lettuce be real, at this point he should be nowhere near this Selecion.
Efra Alvarez wasnt that bad compared to Caca Rodriguez ( different positions I know ) Roberto DeLaRosa is better tho Mexico's depleted bench after 4th substitution worrisome
Tbf, a lot of the guys that would’ve been on the bench are in Japan. Still, zero excuse for tying T&T.
What are you talking zero excuses? Things like what happened to Chucky hits you. Denmark looked great all tournament but they lost to Finland. And eventhough the Eriksen thing was more serious, it also happened because of something that had no action. Lozano got injured by a foul that wasn't called with a ref that wasn't calling anything. So not only you have something that happened to your teammate but the possibility that Trinidad would keep fouling since the ref wouldn't protect you at all. They had everything against (plus a dubious offside call that I thought was onside) them and you can't take anything away from that game. It might be true that Mexico can't still get past the bunker but you can't get anything from that game especially when everyone was worried about things (people in BSMX thread were talking about him being paralyzed).
It also was just a weird ass game. Hit the bar 2-3 times, their keeper was on point, everything, every bounce went their way. That happens sometimes, and it can happen against anyone, even T&T.
You forgot a couple of the most glaring things. The ref was the worst I’ve seen and VAR is a joke if you don’t use it when you should.
I wasn't on the Chaka-hating bandwagon but the reality is he didn't have a great game. Should be wide open for Kevin Alvarez to start but I don't think it'll happen.
Correct what? Rafa had just posted a lengthy paragraph about the Chucky injury and the ref. That's why I said also and brought up another part of the picture people weren't really talking about. You're such an fn loser.
Algo pasó en una de las convocatorias de la selección EU que dejó MUY inconformes a los mexicoamericanos convocados y la información entre futbolistas se transmite muy fácilmente. El Tri lo ha aprovechado para llamar a varios como sparrings y mostrarles que hay mucho interés.— Martín del Palacio (@martindelp) July 13, 2021 Aún tienen que darse varios pasos para que esos jugadores con doble nacionalidad cambien de selección. Quizá no pase nada, pero si hay desbandada de un lado al otro tampoco debería de sorprendernos demasiado. Hay elementos para pensar que podría pasar.— Martín del Palacio (@martindelp) July 13, 2021
Wow, interesting. As a 1st generation American I feel way more at home with Mexicans from Mexico than I do with Americans several generations deep in this country.
Same here Those players probably feel the same way. Atmosphere surrounding the Nads must a different vibe than what they are used to
Not to mention all these soccer paying families are heavily anti-immigrant. MAGA ala pulisic, cameron, shea, etc…
Para entender lo que busca Gerardo Martino de sus delanteros, este texto de @JM_navarrete en @EditorialPuskas es buenísimo. Pónganse un buen café. https://t.co/FxBxeLUR6M— Pepe Del Bosque (@PepedelBosque) July 15, 2021
