Do you think Mexicos NT is benefiting with the killer B's (Bravo & Bautista) playing together in Guadalajara? How long do you think this will last? Should this become more common?
You would think but I don't get the feeling that Bofo is the real deal. On the other hand I like the way Bravo is playing both for Chivas and the NT.
It benefits greatly that Bofo and Bautista get to play side by side week in and week out. Also that Oswaldo Sanchez, Salvador Carmona, Maza Rodriguez and Ramon Morales are in the same team. Many Mexican coaches have done this before. Bora used to have a base of player from Pumas UNAM, Aguirre used many from Pachuca and Cruz Azul ect..
might be a little bit off topic but does anyone else see it as a little bit more than a coincidence that El "Bofo" has been in the 3 MFL finals
Not because they're Chivas..........but I'm not just sold on this duo at this time. I like the U-23 youngsters, they know how to score goals. Copa America will give us the answers.
Omar Bravo has been more efficient and efective than Bofo so far.. Bofo has't been consistent either with Chivas or Mexico.
to be honest, i like bofo and i watched his first match with the national team. i think he has a lot of talent, but he isnt panning out like i thought he would. as for playing with bravo and maza that is great. however, i dont think el bofo is going to be the guy that takes the place of borgetti or cuau. i agree with levante that the u-23 is where we are going to get our new fire power from. luis ernesto perez looks great as does rafael marquez lugo. as for a side note, chivas may be nice for getting top mexican players to play together on a consistent basis. however, we need our top mexican players abroad. having more players going to top leagues elsewhere in the world would be a great tool for mexico.
I don't think that this is the complete answer. Sure.... you need players in more difficult leagues, and I would love to see more Mexies abroad in La Liga and also to be able to see the first Mexie in England or Italy, but when you have your young players not getting the playing time that they need in their own league.......that is a huge problem. How much playing time has Aldo de Nigris gotten this year? What about Cacho? What about Iniguez?
