Does the win against Ghana save Hugo's job?? I hope not.

No, it doesn't save his job, at least I hope it doesn't. Losing the Gold Cup was almost enough to get him fired; but telling the media a bunch of arrogant crap over the last year and not qualifying for the Olympics is enough to get him fired for sure. Rumor has it Bianchi is a possibility for future coach of el tri.
Mourinho is looking for a job.
But Bianchi would also be a good replacement.
I found it hilarious that before Bofo came in for the final few minutes, Zinha, Nery, and Guille were up front, which is what Hugo stressed he did not want when he first became coach. If you look at most national teams, there are naturalized players everywhere. Podolski and Klose were both born in Poland, yet play for Germany. Camoranesi was born in Argentina, but plays for Italy.
Both Hugo and the national team in general need to realize that Mexico will never accomplish anything with the superior mentality they have towards futbol. Just look at USA. They've repeatedly beat Mexico over the past 10 years, including quarterfinals of World Cup; they went into Poland yesterday and won 3-0 (WTF?); over the next couple of months they will play England at Wembley and Spain (IIRC). Mexico, on the other hand, travel all the way to Fulham to play ty against Ghana. This is why they can't even beat the likes of Guatemala, Honduras, Canada, etc when it really matters.
FIRE HUGO
Hugo's gone. Jesus Ramirez is interim for now.
Sven-Goran Eriksson closer to Mexican national team than a return to Man City? If this is true, then Holy ! This guy is a winner

* "La propuesta no fue de siete millones de dólares"
Si bien aún tiene contrato vigente con el Manchester City, Sven-Goran Eriksson sí escuchó la oferta que la Federación Mexicana de Futbol le hizo la semana pasada para dirigir a la Selección de nuestro país.
Sin embargo, y debido a que el estratega sueco es una más de las posibilidades que ha contactado la FMF para dirigir al Tri para el proceso mundialista, Eriksson ha escuchado otras ofertas de clubes europeos.
En este momento Sven-Goran Eriksson se encuentra en una gira por Tailandia y Hong Kong con el Manchester City, a la cual por cierto no asistió el jugador mexicano Nery Castillo, quien viajó a Uruguay para ver a su madre por problemas de salud.
La e del lunes la cadena CNN en español hizo público el acercamiento de la FMF con el estratega del City y especificó que la oferta económica fue de nueve millones de dólares, versión que fue descartada este lunes por una fuente cercana al estratega a la cual tuvo acceso mediotiempo.com vía telefónica y quien pidió no ser revelada.
"Sí se ha hablado con el técnico, pero tanto el técnico como la Federación (Mexicana de Futbol) saben que hay muchas variantes para lo que pueda pasar a futuro. Yo pienso que ahora mismo no es momento para hablar, ni siquiera decir qué técnico tiene más posibilidades, o cual está más lejos. Son opciones y ya está.
"(Eriksson) no conoce el futbol mexicano como lo podrán conocer las personas que han trabajado ahí toda su vida, pero el señor obviamente es una eminencia en futbol, el señor conoce el futbol mexicano, el futbol argentino, el futbol brasileño, conoce las ligas importantes de Latinoamérica, claro que las conoce", mencionó la fuente.
Otra de las opciones laborales que tiene el ex técnico de la Selección de Inglaterra es el club Benfica de Portugal.
Any news on this?? Nery must have really impressed him at ManCity. I doubt this happens. Sounds way to good to be true. Names don't get much bigger than Sven's
It's reality now. I think this is a very good thing for El Tri, but Eriksson has no idea what he's getting himself into. I wonder if he even speaks any spanish

Selección Mexicana | Eriksson será presentado el 3 de junio en la Asamblea de Dueños

* Compeán confirmó que México será sede del Mundial Sub-17
El nuevo estratega de la Selección Mexicana, Sven-Goran Eriksson será presentado el próximo 3 de junio ante la Asamblea de Dueños, según informó la mañana de este martes Justino Compeán, Presidente de la Federación Mexicana de Futbol.
"Es verdad que tuvimos pláticas con Luiz Felipe Scolari y Eriksson, pero con este último estamos cerrando filas", mencionó Compeán en entrevista con el programa de radio Pasión W, desde Europa.
El directivo dijo que se pretende que el estratega llegue a México el lunes 2 de junio para que esté presente un día después en la Asamblea de Dueños, donde sería oficializado como el nuevo Director Técnico de la Selección Mexicana, en sus ución de Hugo Sánchez.
Justino Compeán viajó a Europa desde hace dos semanas para amarrar al nuevo estratega, además de confirmar que México será sede del próximo Mundial Sub-17 en el 2011.
That's what I initially thought, but Nery barely played good minutes throughout the season. Eriksson would start him one game, then bench him 2 or 3 straight games; sometimes without even coming on as a sub. Man City has great strikers, but I feel that they haven't seen the best of Nery yet.
From the couple of games I saw Nery at ManCity, he played very well. He is still a bit wild and way too left foot dependent, but he did play well and was basically their whole offense. It's like they gave him the ball and just get out of the way. He should pass more and I can tell his confidence was a bit shaken, but he's still a very promising talent and I'm sure Sven saw something in practice he liked.
But as for Sven this is great news
I have a feeling great things will happen in 2010
This is good news for El Tri.
I honestly think Eriksson is a good hire. I also thought that about Hugo Sanchez, but I guess that didn't pan out.
Yep, and at least Eriksson isn't spewing out the nonsense Hugo was before he even became coach. "If you want to win the World Cup, call me blah blah blah." He was great as a player, alright as the coach of Pumas, and terrible as coach of El Tri. Anyways, Eriksson has apparently already landed in Mexico City and will be named coach tomorrow; however it's not certain if he will be in Cali when Mexico plays Argentina on Wed (I still don't F'in know why Mexican home games are played in the States and not in Azteca).
It gets more hilarious at 2:27
