In October 2007 he was nominated by France Football to the prestigious Ballon d'Or (formerly known as the European Footballer of the Year). He is the first Mexican to be nominated for this award. [youtube]xLTA1LxlA-Q[/youtube] I just tought it need to be maid since i didnt find one.
Ochoa is America! Nice video. He is ridiculously good. If Ochoa isn't considered the best Goalie not in Europe then you got to be on crack. I strongly believe he will be the best goalie Mexico has produced to date.
In this interview FIFA asked Memo this; Imagine we come back and do an interview in five years' time. Where would you like to be? Playing in Europe for a big team. Hopefully I'll have won a medal at the Olympic Games, played in the Champions League and won it, and of course, won the World Cup at South Africa 2010. My dream would be a final against Brazil, going all the way to penalties and saving the last one. No, even better... we'd be winning 1-0 and I'd save a penalty in the last minute! http://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/news/newsid=675512.html#memo+ochoa+mexicos+no1 SI SE PUEDE!!
Escuche Andre Marin en el juego de Jaguares - America, que Javier Aguirre le pidio a su directiva la contratacion de Ochoa. Alguien sabe algo mas sobre esto?
He can save America from losing a game, well most of the time he can do it for Mexico as well. I hope hes in Spain by then.
El no pidio ni madres!!!!!!!! they said that la directiva gave him the OK for a mexican Goalkeeper. and like Marin was covering a game where ochoa was playing, he thought it would be easy to say that Athletico was after Ochoa(which i hope it'll be true). But you cant really trust what that dumbass says!
memo wont go to atletico because he wants to go to a elite team like man u or ac milan. http://machochip.com/2007/11/guillermo-ochoa-eyeing-to-go-f-1.php
I hope that what you say is true becaue then he could take Corona or one of the other great young keepers like that Blanco fellow to Atletico and then we could have 2 really great keepers such as say idk somebody else and Ochoa just incase i mean it dosnt hurt to give ochoa competition it will make him stronger!!
they approached his agent but nothing formal: http://www.mediotiempo.com/noticia.php?id_noticia=51511 You know it's funny, after watching the last three Atletico games I thought "damn, El Atleti really need a goalie, they should pick up Memo"
take a look at the last paragraph....Aguirre answers a question regarding the rumor of Ochoa to Atletico http://www.marca.com/edicion/marca/futbol/1a_division/atletico/es/desarrollo/1083755.html Reading some of the comments, it seems as though the majority of Atleti fans are more interested in calling up Falcon or De Gea, porteros de la cantera.
Estrenará Memo Ochoa ante Pumas, un jersey diseñado por él mismo http://www.mediotiempo.com/noticia.php?id_noticia=51618 *cough* Campos *cough*
