Malditos Santander y Paez!

Te imaginas el tamaño de nuestra nación bolivariana hoy con las riquezas de Venezuela, Colombia y Ecuador juntas? El canal de Panamá sería Colombiano también!

Seríamos potencia en muchos deportes además jajaja

 

I am surprised nobody has mentioned this around here but it is being reported that we will face Spain in London for a FIFA friendly. (March)

The battle for Cristhian Mosquera.

 

So the friendly is official? Imagine both countries call him up and he has to make the choice.

 

not official

 

So what players should we see for our unofficial friendlies?

 

I expect to see some of the players who played in January against the USA in the non-FIFA match.
I would like to see some Mexican league players too.
I expect to see some of the domestic players who were on the preliminary list these last set of Qualifiers who were not on the roster in January.

Maybe guys from Argentina and Brazil who were also not available January.

 

lots of local league randos

 

Here's the list of the local players who were on the preliminary roster for November.

1. Juan Camilo Portilla (América de Cali)
2. Cristian Barrios (América de Cali)
3. Carlos Darwin Quintero (América de Cali)
4. Edwin Cardona (América de Cali)
5. Homer Martínez (Junior de Barranquilla)
6. Carlos Bacca (Junior de Barranquilla)
7. Kevin Mier (Atlético Nacional)
8. Dorlan Pabón (Atlético Nacional)
9. Edier Ocampo (Atlético Nacional)
10. Robert Mejía (Atlético Nacional)
11. John Fredy Salazar (Águilas Doradas)
12. Mateo Puerta (Águilas Doradas)
13. Jeison Quiñones (Águilas Doradas)
14. Andrés Llinás (Millonarios)
15. Leonardo Castro (Millonarios)
16. Álvaro Montero (Millonarios)
17. José Luis Chunga (Independiente Medellín)
18. Edwin Cetré (Independiente Medellín)

I would not mind seeing all these guys play in the friendlies but I know people want to move on from the old guys like Cardona and Bacca.

I hear a lot of good things about Portilla and would be very interested to see him play.

 

lol at cardona, bacca and darwin quintero and pabon being called up

 

Most of those guys would destroy Mexican League players like they have done in the past so I would not mind it at all. I would thoroughly enjoy it rather.
But yes, it would be funny to see.

 

This was our roster in January:
1. Juan David Mosquera, Portland Timbers
2. Santiago Moreno, Portland Timbers
3. Nicolás Hernández, Club Athletico Paranaense
4. Dylan Borrero, New England Revolution
5. Juan Camilo Hernández, Columbus Crew
6. Cristian Arango, Los Angeles FC (LAFC)
7. Diego Valoyes, Club Atlético Talleres
8. Jorman Campuzano, Giresunspor
9. Alexis Pérez, Giresunspor
10. Frank Fabra, Club Atlético Boca Juniors
11. Andrés Reyes, New York Red Bulls
12. Andrés Llinás, Millonarios FC
13. Álvaro Montero, Millonarios FC
14. Daniel Ruiz, Millonarios FC
15. Daniel Cataño, Millonarios FC
16. Junior Hernández, Deportes Tolima
17. Juan Camilo Portilla, América de Cali
18. Yílmar Velásquez, Deportivo Pereira
19. Díber Cambindo, Deportivo Independiente Medellín (DIM)
20. José Luis Chunga, Alianza Petrolera.


I expect to see some of these guys again on the new roster.

*Kevin Castaño was also on the squad.

 

I want to see some people from the U20 world cup that we had earlier this year. Especially Tomás Ángel.

 

Would be nice to see some Sub 23 players.

 

Preciado smashed Lorenzo wife or what? Ian poveda is really random but hey .

 

This is a pretty cool callup. Lots of guys from everywhere that I don't think other guys would have considered Like the colombian David Silva, Devan Tanton and a random Ian Poveda appearance, who has decided that he wants to be colombian now

Ospina makes his return out of nowhere too

 

Which preciado

 

Looks like no Tomas Angel tho which is a shame. Regardless I am kinda intrigued now by this callup

 

Aren’t the 2 Millos players like 40
Years old?

is Ian Poveda even playing? The Fulham kid plays on their reserves so super odd call up.

Ospina played yet for his club? Seems like a bad call and these 2 games were to give Montero and Mier minutes

 

Idk. It was always gonna be an experimental squad. But calling in Camindo again...why? Worst guy I've ever seen wear yellow.

Andres Gomez and Henry Mosquera are great....but these guys should be with the sub 23, who should be playing on the same days, no?

Devan Tanton...man that's desperate. That kid's got nothing...

 

These players are all kind of bad what type of scouting is this! If this was a list of 30-40 guys cool but weak df, mf and strikers

Hope Cassiera and Cucho can pull off 2 wins. For us

did we get fkd again because of the stupid league play offs? Why don’t they stop for a week so we can call the best Colombian league guys

I remember Bryan Vera being an awful lb as well

 

should of called up palacios or oscar perea.

 

silva is like 40 year olds

 

Seems surreal seeing Silva here. Curious to see what Poveda is like
