WHAT'S MEXICO SAYING? IT'S NOT ABOUT PEDIGREE, STUPID
Following the Croatia loss, there were those who said it was too much to expect the SE to beat Croatia. Why? And they'd start throw out the name Modric repeatedly and a few others, telling us about the pedigree of the Croatian players and the top European clubs they play for. They'd contrast that with the SE players who play in "backwater leagues". Some of us argued that while that may be true, it shouldn't be taken too far, citing the case of Iceland. Well, Mexico just firmed up that point.
All the German players play in top European clubs so much so that the likes of Sane, a starter for most of the teams in Russia 18, couldn't get a place in the German squad. Meanwhile, some of the Mexican players earn their pay in the MLS. And perhaps their top player is a potential West Ham cast off. Most of them might not even find a spot in the German squad. But see what just happened.
So the message to the SE for the rest of this tournament is for the coach unleash the players and go for broke the next two matches. Let's see what happens. They shouldn't be overburdened with all kinds of schemes and formations. Let the guys play free.
Message to the US. I know there is a temptation to quickly go and hire the Mexican coach, a Colombian who has been having problems with the fans and FA. Remember what happened when the same emotional reaction led to the hiring of Klinsmann and we all know what happened. It's not about the coach; it's about the talent on the field and their heart.

Much of this comes back to Rohr. He's seriously overplayed the underdog card to the point where it seems as if Nigeria is there only to collect beatings.

Sadly Rohr also believes that Modric was too much for the SE to deal with. Without a new coach the SE is going nowhere

...Rohr is the first coach Pinnick has had the opportunity to hire, and everything I know about him indicates a weakness for things European. Only short shrift was given to hiring a local before Rohr was selected. And we know how much the NFF goes after foreign coaches and with what deference they are treated. Even here on this forum, the decades-long debate we had is a testament to that.

It's not that easy. This Mexican team has been together with their coach since 2015 and has a well established style of play and lot more vets than we have on our team.

Re: WHAT'S MEXICO SAYING? IT'S NOT ABOUT PEDIGREE, STUPID
Mexico will not beat Germany every time. Give them 10 games and Germany may win 60% and the rest will be draws or wins for Mexico.
The odds favour the team with the better players all else being equal but it’s not always the case that all else is equal. Luck may favour one team better. For example, the Germans struck the post and the bar in that game, so potentially they could have scored 2 goals.
I'm sure if you look at the ball possession stats you'll see that they dominated possession. And this was the main question with the Croatia game. Some of us argued that the Croatians retained possession better because they simply had the superior players, man for man. They came into the game with an advantage but the results could have gone our way if, like Germany, luck was just not on their side on the night OR we came with a better system that negated their advantage in better quality players.

The reality for the fans is that you cannot always expect a team with inferior players to outclass a team with better players. Yes, on the odd occasion you may win but the odds favour the team with the better players. It just so happens that in this case, the result went with the odds. It's not so surprising.
