The jam offensive Mexico (II): The rookies

Welcome to the second part of this analysis of the offensive struggles of the Mexican. This time, I will focus on reviewing three young forwards who just met their first matches with the green jersey. All three are within call Aztec Gold Cup, so we can attest to its performance during the tournament.

2. Rookies

Pablo Barrera: The attacker of the Pumas of UNAM is leaving a pleasant aftertaste in the Gold Cup has spent his entire career on the varsity and was part of the Mexican national team in the Under-20 World Canada 2007. Recently debuted in the game against Guatemala, and although the club plays on the right, Aguirre has experienced the side opposite to good effect. In the two games he has played with Green noted, and even scored his first goal in the game against Nicaragua.

Diagnosis: Barrera could be one of the discoveries of the era Aguirre. It is very fast, faces rivals, and it seems that both bands can perform. It would serve very well to open spaces if you are accompanied by a '9 'fixed.'s Young and inexperienced and should be treated with reservations. A good choice for banking.

Rating: 3 / 5

Carlos Esquivel: Esquivel is not young (27 years), but takes little time as a professional. The story says he was discovered by Amerigo Scatolaro while driving public transport. In another context, would not have reached the national team. Aguirre trusted him as a starter for the tie against Trinidad and Tobago, and it showed vague and nervous. The Toluca is a good second striker, but no more.

Dianóstico: Not for the national team. His level is good, but offers many short-term solutions. Aguirre has faith, so they could make some more calls. If you do not teach anything in the few minutes it will all point to that would be left off the list.

Rating: 2 / 5

Jose Maria Cardenas: The Chema is another attempt to find solutions Aguirre offensive. Just signed for Santos Laguna, has fought in Pachuca and Atlante. It is distinguished by a good punch and tours to baseline. In his few appearances for the green, to Guatemala was incisive, but with an eye deviated.'s A player dropped, but not always enough just to run after the ball.

Diagnosis: It has qualities, but the position battle with Carlos Vela and Paul Barrera. Everything will depend on their performance in the Mexican league, then rhythm might earn a spot on the bench, although it seems more like a backup in case of injury.
