Road to 2022 - Post Figueroa, Izaguirre, edition.

Kevin Alvarez CB experiment isn’t working, and now we are trying out Rodriguez at RW.

 

With Quioto likely done we have no chances imo, our entire offense are literally 2nd options who have no chemistry playing together.

 

Another Penalty committed by Maynor, how many more chances are going to give him.

 

Buba doing Buba things, Amazing as always.

 

Marcelo Pereira in for Maynor who is subbed out with injury

 

Coito would have a proper plan B. Not sure what Chaco Pineda got up his sleeves.

 

Maynor likely out of the Gold Cup, potential broken toe.

 

Hopefully Kevin Alvarez is ok

 

This team bro, Mexico will stomp us if Quioto isn’t Available.

We are being held together by duck tape at this point. We need to convince Najar to join right now for us to have a chance.

 

That shít dead. We bouta be out there fueled off straight hope and will

CONFIRMADO🚨: Maynor Figueroa es baja para el resto de Copa Oro, un golpe en un dedo de su pie lo deja fuera. El capitán se une a las bajas de Elis, Solano y Fernández; a la espera de noticias con Romell Quioto.

Quioto to be back for Mexico this weekend. Maynor is done for the rest of the tournament.

 

Just seen the highlights... looks like we got played off the park. Tbf that Qatar side are no mugs and technically they are very decent, some of the build up play was top notch.

With that said we need to take our performance with a pinch of salt as we were so depleted and Coito wasn't there. Plenty of learning to be had though, which is exactly why I was glad we drew them.

Worryingly though Maynor gave away another penalty. If you look how often he has to dive in it shows how he's always half a yard off. I bet he's fit as a fiddle and it probably wouldn't show in training but it will show against opposition, especially the better they get.

Let's see if we can pull something out of the bag vs Mexico.

 

I hope Qatar don't go and win the whole thing, that would be embarrassing for CONCACAF.

 

Moya seemed to have resumed training, one positive from our current injury streak.

There hasn't been much press coverage of the u-23, must be because of all the Covid restrictions out there.

 

We debut Thursday at 5 in the morning against Romania

 

Andy Najar is going to join the Team for the rest of the Gold Cup, it looks like he was ready to anyways to replace Solani and Fernandez.

We have 2 more spots open, who else is available that was on the 60 man list? Espinoza already said no.

 

Bryan Rochez? Lol

We need another CB... Whose left? Paz can't get into the USA, that's always been his issue and some of y'all forget that.

 

Would the Honduran team look more different if there wasn't olympics going on?

 

Absolutely. They have Denil, Douglas, Edwin, Rigo, Benguche, Alvarez, Pineda..

All of them would be of use right about now.

 

Speaking of the Olympic team, we make our debut tomorrow against Romania early in the a.m.

Kike Lanza of diez whose in charge of following them while in Japan believes the line-up will look like this..

Güity; El Búho, Casildo, Denil, Decas; Pineda, Alvarez, Rigo, Reyes; Douglas y Benguche

 

Llegando a Phoenix donde este sábado la Selección jugará ante México. Muy optimista con la última actualización respecto al capitán Maynor Figueroa. Puedo confirmar que no es una lesión de gravedad. Pendientes de más detalles @DeportesTVC @radiohrn

Atención 🙏 NO HAY FRACTURA

Maynor Figueroa confirma que no tiene fractura y únicamente es el dolor el cual ya se lo están tratando. El jugador se siente optimista de llegar el sábado! pic.twitter.com/cnhNzhplM4

Maynor's back. Seems like he'll be an option once again against Mexico.

 

The fact that we can't think of anyone we could call up in his absence kind of indicates, rightly or wrongly, he still needs to be there.

I know I have criticized him but he will always be el capitan eterno in my eyes.

Leveron Maynor Pereira K Alvarez

That back 4 would do me, I think.

Just watching the full Qatar game now, only about 24 hours later ha

 

I'm on the fence about who should play RB.

I love Kevin but offers little in offensive projection due to his lack of pace. On the other hand he's way more defensively resolute than Felix Crisanto... It's one of those catch-22 scenarios.

 

Damn we really are scraping the bottom of the barrel at CB..

Allans Vargas, Getsel Montes, Juan Pablo Montes... Those are our options, yikes man.
