Starting Over…Again
The pool of players that will represent Mexico in the upcoming qualifiers against El Salvador(June 6) and Trinidad and Tobago(June 10).
In all 24 players made the list and will be with the team until June 10.
As usual, there’s a surprise or two.
Vicente Fox To The Rescue
Have no fear, Vicente Fox is here. The ex president is just as pissed off at the national team as any other Mexican and he’s taking matters into his own hands.
How will he do it? Will he work as Aguirre’s assistant? Will he donate gobs of money to the federation so they have extra incentive [...]
The New(Old) Guy
Aguirre was formally introduced as the new national team manager. His contract is in two parts: one is for qualifying, and the other for the World Cup.
“For me it’s an honor to come back home. It was almost seven years away. I see with joy many familiar faces. I come to gain points, I [...]
Aguirre In
It was much anticipated, and perhaps the worst kept secret in Mexican football but Javier Aguirre has been named manager of the Mexican national team.
He will be officially unveiled as the national team coach on April 16th.
“We sat down with Javier for five hours, but the economic terms were settled in 30 minutes. I [...]
Sven Sacked
It’s official. Sven Goran Eriksson is the Mexican national team manager no more.
“The decision was made because we cannot put at risk Mexico’s participation in the World Cup,” Mexican Football Federation President Justino Compean said. “We could rely on having to win all of our home games just to qualify for the World Cup.”

3 Players Out For Honduras
After the 2-0 win over Costa Rica, Mexico was given a high. Now reality has hit again, and this time took 3 players along with it. Giovani Dos Santos, Edgar Castillo, and Ricardo Osorio are set to miss out.
And Then There Was Light
The Costa Rican’s hopes for another Aztecazo came crashing today. They just weren’t in it this time and the team that had done so well during qualifying was beat by a gaining strength Mexico. With a weird dance after the goals, Omar Bravo and Pavel Pardo both scored goals at the Azteca stadium to give [...]
Gio Out, Castillo In
After Gio Dos Santos suffered an injury during this past weekend with his club Ipswich, it was rumored that he would not be fit enough to play. Well, the rumors and true and Gio has been taken off the list for the game against Costa Rica on March 28th, but there is a chance that [...]
Call-Ups for Costa Rica and Honduras
These are the players that have been called up for the games against Puerto RicoCosta Rica on the 28th, and Honduras on April 1st. They’ll go into training camps on March 23rd.
Always Have A Plan B…and C
If Sven loses the plot(again) against Costa Rica on March 28th then he’s done. Out. Finished. His replacement would be Javier Aguirre who is currently out of a job after he was ousted from Atleti. In case that doesn’t work out then Jose Manuel “Chepo” De La Torre(currently the manager of Toluca) would take charge. [...]
