Not all that surprising. I still think they'll be fine in terms of qualification, but I certainly don't envy who ends up taking over El Tri...
 
damn, I wish they kept him

Didn't see this coming, heh. He won't be out of work long. Maybe Mexico can go back to having a douchebag for a coach and play thug flop soccer again.
 
Javier Aguirre is the new DT, he was the coach when we beat then 2-0 in Korea. (Was that his last game as Mexico DT??? I don't remember.)
 
It was. He went on to La Liga after that. He got Osasuna into the Champions League, and did the same with Atletico before maradona got him fired.

I have always liked Aguirre because he was the kind of player who started his career as forward, then moved back to midfield, d-midfield, defender, and finished as a sweeper, kinda like Lothar Matthaus. He knows the game very well.

Mexico reaps what they sow. Their lack of patience and extreme arrogance always holds them back. But they make a ton of money so they don't see the need to change anything. It keeps them floundering in mediocrity. Aguirre won't change the culture, but he is demanding complete control of the national team from top to bottom. It'll be interesting to see if the suits give in to his demands.
 
It's easier to blame the coaches. Because as well know, missing goals when you have a 5 on 1 is purely the coach's fault.
 
He was at Atletico, right? I think he is a good hire. He is not unfamiliar with the team and has some respect coming in. Here's to Mexico getting things on stable ground again, soon.
 
^^^^^^ Why? They are overrated little whiners. I absolutely hate their fans. They think they are gods gift to soccer in North America despite being dominated now for 10 years. Plus it makes me really mad when they boo during our national anthem. enjoy the turmoil while it lasts.
 
I have some family that are their fans and many friends. They have good and bad fans. While many tend to be douches, not all are. We are pretty new to this big time soccer thing and have not yet quite arrived. When we do and more fans pile on we will have ample time to show how doucney we can be as well. Just go to some sporting events here to see what could come.

We have zero sports in our country with the passion that they or other countries have for their team and the sport.

Lately Mexico plays like a bunch of whining ******* who flop all the time. They are Italy Lite. I blamed the past, past coach for that type of behavior as he was a dirt bag to begin with. Hugo can suck it. So my hopes is that with the right coach that type of behavior and those antics won't be tolerated.

Maybe that can transcend into some fans who are on the fence with their douchery. There will always be jackasses but the common Mexican fan can have a party at my house any day to watch soccer.

Now, if they continue their ******** beyond the influence of you know who, F 'em.
 
Trust me, Mexico played like that for a long time before Hugo arrived.

The US needs Mexico to be better because it makes their confederation better and it makes the US record better. Considering that Mexico is the only decent team that the US has beat since Portugal in 2002 and they haven't gotten past the group stage in any tournament held outside of their region since that same world cup, it don't look so good. And when Mexico looks as bad as it does, then it looks worse.
 
I think 1899 meant the *USA* hadn't got out of their group anywhere, not Mexico.

P.S. Any more scoop on the Argentines altitude sickness?
 
Just read a response she wrote before heading off to work.
1) She doesn't know specifics, so she'll try to snoop today, but...
2) She said that she had heard they were players who play in Argentina
... So that's like Veron and almost no one else. If that's the story, then it's not as juicy.
