Piojo has released his list of extranjeros for the October call ups and I have to admit, I am a little surprised.

Another weekend, another packed fixture list for our boys in Europe. Lets dive in
Viva Mexico Cabrones!
As I watched El Grito de Dolores on TV last night, it got me thinking about my proudest moment as a fan of El Tri. My mind quickly went to the 2012 Olympic tournament. More specifically, the magical Gold medal game against Brasil.
Weekend Schedule: 9/13
Club soccer is back on in Europe. There are plenty of Mexicans expected to suit up for their clubs. Gone are the days of being happy to have a Mexican just make the bench. Lets see when these games kick off..
Meh-xico
I was excited for this match but expected an uneven performance with the squad Piojo picked. What did we get? An uneven performance. I think several players had good games and helped their standing with the national teams, but the team was unable to finish the chances created. Overall, these 2 games did their job: provided glimpses of players for Piojo’s next 11.
Mexico vs Bolivia- Why Watch?
Besides the fact that it is a Tuesday night and you likely have nothing else better to do, there are other reason to watch this game.
The Good, The Bad & The Chuletita?
Mexico battled a strong Chile team to a goal less draw. It sounds a lot more exciting than that but it is what it is. The game felt like a track meet for most of the 90 minutes. Below are some thoughts on the game. Nothing too crazy, I’m just splitting it up into a couple sections for a quick read.
Chicharito- One Superclub To The Next
The more and more you look at the career of Javier Hernandez, the more you think you’re reading some script for a movie or a telenovela. His career started in one of the biggest clubs in North America and taken him to two of the biggest clubs in Europe. He became a fan favorite at United but the time has come to find greener pastures elsewhere. The loan to Real Madrid with a buy option has many wondering if it was the “right” move. So much that Tomas Boy chimed in for some reason. I stand with the minds that think this is a good move and I have my reason why.
