Blanco gets the call

So, Blanco gets the call back to the Mexican National team. This is his chance to finally get 100 official caps. I think this really says a lot about the state of the Mexican National team and more importantly, the lack of leadership within the team. I don’t think Blanco still has the skill and speed that he once had, but that is not why he was called up. Mexico has looked like a team without and leadership under Sven. The talent was there, but they seemed like they were missing the catalyst that could bring them all together. Perhaps Blanco is the answer to their problems. Blanco has a way of bringing this team together. More importantly, he has a way of getting into the oppositions head. That might just be enough to salvage this World Cup run.

Comment always welcome.
