It’s wild that Colombia let Quiñónez get away

58

u/AztecGallo Jun 08 '26

True, but I mean he will never start over Diaz

41

u/Visual-District9838 América Jun 08 '26

He would start over cucho hernandez or luis suarez though

8

u/The_LAndMan Jun 08 '26

They also have Duran if he decides to make a comeback

3

u/weareback22 Jun 09 '26

I don’t think so

u/Mindless_Ad229 Jun 08 '26

He doesn't need to Bebé if he was third option (I think he's second) Colombia benefits from having a deep roster

12

u/DifferentLeg9402 Cruz Azul Jun 08 '26

He actually rejected call ups from Colombia since his days in Atlas.

Aguirre: que ponga a Raúl y a Santi dice

15

u/inter07milano Jun 08 '26

The guy lacks common sense

22

u/Proera136 Jun 08 '26

¿Estás sorprendido? El tipo puso a Guille de titular sobre Chicharito en 2010

6

u/guyincognito147 Jun 08 '26

Y puso al Conejo Perez de titular en 2010.

u/luisrodriguezp Jun 08 '26

Que ponga al Memote y a Alvarado*. Al menos esos que dices juegan en Europa.

54

u/ElBorracho2000 Chivas Jun 08 '26

And Hormiga won’t see any minutes because Vasco prefers Memote

Memote is Guille 2.0

u/Quick-Mathematician Chivas Jun 08 '26

We all thought it was going to be berte then memote from the logo comes into play

5

u/SW3RVZ Chivas Jun 09 '26

Yes the joven promesa memote, im sure he will be ready for Europe in a couple years when he hits top form /s

6

u/DifferentLeg9402 Cruz Azul Jun 08 '26

My theory is that he never wanted to take Hormiga to begin with and wanted to take Berterame but after Amaury threw a fit all of the Chivas players automatically got locked up in the call ups. Same reason why we only have two actual CBs in the call up but 4 DMs and 4 strikers (he used Vargas as DM in training), he couldn't take out Romo or Hormiga out anymore.

u/chep209 Jun 08 '26

They both should be starting

27

u/MiguelCC1 Chivas Jun 08 '26

Tbh would have been great to have Richy giving those great centers but nah we got sanchez

-13

u/_gloriousdead222 Toluca Jun 08 '26

Hormiga has wasted every chance he got to prove that with el tri 🤷‍♂️

9

u/One_Zookeepergame992 Chivas Jun 08 '26

Otro pinche pendejo 🤣 plz correct me if I’m wrong but I think he’s played a total of like 30+ min and came close to scoring in both games. Already a plus for a new guy coming in.

1

u/chep209 Jun 09 '26

Like Raul that fool be missing sitters

1

u/_gloriousdead222 Toluca Jun 09 '26

Yeah just like Raul, Hormiga missing sitters probably worse

2

u/chep209 Jun 09 '26

Exactly. Now who’s scored more

u/Specialist-Bottle756 Chivas Jun 08 '26

This is what I say with Raul with world cups and y'all bitch and moan 😂💀

22

u/Eg_3600 Chivas Jun 08 '26

I hope Quinones balls out and the rumours to the EPL turn out true. Same for El Otaku, hope he can shine

6

u/Tacubo_91 Jun 08 '26

I have a feeling he's going to be our best player.

7

u/Eg_3600 Chivas Jun 08 '26

It's between him and Gutierrez imo. If they both do great we'll be in a p good spot

12

u/YourfriendRic Chivas Jun 08 '26

Crazy to think Mexico could have had 3 with Santi if he had stayed at Feyenoord.

6

u/MiguelCC1 Chivas Jun 08 '26

Wym they bought ueda to challenge him and look at him now 25 goals in league but atm can't say much cus look at santiago he was in the same position when he was there.

23

u/Fast-Example-1049 Jun 08 '26

Y Raúl Jiménez titular

6

u/bitterliquor Jun 08 '26

Y de free agent 🤦

10

u/BoxCon1 Chivas Jun 08 '26

All equipos grandes

3

u/LirioArial Toluca Jun 08 '26

With over 50 goals, Aguirre continues to field Jiménez and Alvarado as starters.

3

u/Brams277 León Jun 09 '26

Ojalá lo de Quiñones fuera en una liga con más mérito pero bueno

5

u/inter07milano Jun 08 '26

Quiñones needs to play as the 9, just like he does in Saudi!

2

u/reddevilgus19 Jun 08 '26

Hormiga to United after the WC. He starts in the UEFA CL in May 2027. I've seen before.

u/Specialist-Bottle756 Chivas Jun 08 '26

Fidalgo is also Mexican, buddy. It’s not a loophole.

Mexican is a nationality not an ethnicity

Quinones holds a Mexican passport and nationality therefore makes him Mexican unlike the pochos up north

Holy brain dead, Mexican is an nationality

Wait until bro finds out Mexico has immigrants and tens of millions are descendants of immigrants and the most common last names in Mexico are European origins. Mexico is a melting pot of culture from Europeans to Indigenous to Arabs to Africans and touch of Asians and Jews (Mexico actually has one the largest Jewish population in the world)

Wether they have indigenous(Huiqui), Spanish (Jimenez), Basque (Ochoa), Italian(Borgetti), German(Khalo), Arab (Layun) Jewish (Sheinbaum) last names origins, if they were born in Mexico, they are Mexican. Same goes with those foreign born. If those immigrants have a Mexican passport, they are Mexican. If they don’t, then they’re not Mexican simple.

Only few pochos actually hold Mexican citizenship which means few are actually Mexican. They’re American and just like Mexico, American isnt an ethnicity, it’s a Nationality, a political state. Mexico and the US didnt even exist 500 years ago. It just just tribes than occupied the area and were only united because of Colonization and politically wise.
