    He is a much better prospect IMO.

    If you've seen either one play enough to produce some kind of scouting report, I'd love to hear it.

    It's certainly possible that he's a better prospect, if for no other reason than that he's two years younger than Sonny, but at the same age Guadarrama had many more professional appearances under his belt.

    They are both reaching the age where if they don't become first-division, first-team regulars soon, they probably won't be -- which is not to say they can't still have good pro careers at some level.

    I've seen him play a couple of times with Queretaro, America, and once with Merida. He is pretty good on the ball and good in the air. He lacks pace but has a decent shot.

    Yeah, based on watching him play with on loan with Queretaro I thought he was definitely playing below his level with Merida...but he had the attitude issues obviously.

    Hopefully he doesn't celebrate by going out drinking.

    I wonder if these guys (along with someone like Marco Vidal or Adrian Ruelas)--- Liga MX/Ascenso MX tweeners--- get a new life line with the Chivas strategy of going after Mexican-Americans. Their recent actions with the draft and shopping Kennedy suggest that they're serious about it (at least for now).

    That video doesn't work for me.

    Strange indeed. Why there? Does he have peruvian roots? No options in MLS?
