What will Mexico's participation be in the World Cup without arguably their best player C. Blanco?

They can still finish second in their group and advance, since they are in such a weak group, with portugal being the only team I see that could defeat them.  However, without Blanco, it seems unlikely that they will win a knockout round match.

Juan Requelme, Hernan Crespo, Carlos Tevez, Juan Sorin, Javier Saviola\n\nThis is my 5 picks that will help the team go far playing at the World cup level.

Good question...\n\nMexico is "en fuego" (on fire) right now.  They are definitely one of the teams to beat early in the quest for the Cup.\n\nI am going to say 2-1 Mexico.  Iran has some good strikers and offensive capabilities.  But the real question will be if they can hold their own defensively.\n\nViva Mexico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spain will get through the group stage,they should score a lot of goals in their easy group.Now they better not stumble in the playoffs,we have to remember they had problems in the qualification rounds of the World Cup.We know that they have a very deep team. Having the young talent in Ramos and Fabregas,these guys energy should fuel their outstanding forwards.Raul will be back in time for the World Cup and I think if Morientes gets enough playing time he will make a big impact.Casillas is one of the best goalkeepers in the World while Puyol and Salgado are his experienced defenders.Lastly,Xavi is going to help orchestrate a steady attack with his amazing talents.I see them going as far as the semi=finals or Finals(unless they face France in the first round).The only problem is that if they play Brazil,France,or Argentina they lack the experience in the final rounds of the World Cup. Either way, Spain should move forward and even if they don't win the World Cup their young players will become confident with their abilities in the international game.

Claudio Suarez of Mexico is 37 and part of the National Team upto this point. Mexico is working w/ a group of 26 and needs to cut 3 players by May 15. \n The final rosters need to be submitted to FIFA by this date.So, until then, we won't really know who is going to Germany, or much less, know who will be playing.

Uh...I think you got the wrong World Cup here.  Mexico is disqualified, Argentina is in the quarterfinals, end of story.

Hugo Sanchez was the greatest goalscorer that Mexico has ever seen. He didn't have any dribbling skill, but he would always put the ball in the net. He no longer plays, but he coaches. He recently coached UNAM Pumas (the mexican club team) to two consecutive championships a few years ago. He was just released from the team because they are doing so badly this year.

The best player on Mexico is undoubtedly Borgetti. He led Mexico in qualifiers with the most goals. As for the other players you named, they are all excellent. However, Borgetti just has the mentality of a winner, the intelligence, experience to be considered their best and most complete individual player. Second best player would be Marquez...

Argentina is in their best potential right know especially after creamating Serbian & Montenegro 6-0. They have a lot of communication between the player and their one touch passes sure leave a defence crying for their mos, hehe. I am a Mexico fan myself, but I know Argentina can take it this year.

Hey! u forget that! Iran in fifa ranking is in the 22th place while Angola is in the 58th! also Iran has the best players in Bondesliga, such as;\nAli Karimi >>> FC BaYern MunchenEV ( he is the best player of the year 2004!)\nMehdi Mahdavikia >>> Hamburg\nRahman Rezai >>> Messina Italy\nVahid Hashemian >>> Hanover\nFereYdun Zandi >>> Kaiserslaturn and More...\n\nAlso it has Ali Daie! \n It is very difficult for Mexico and Portugal to go over the group!

Yes they are out of the WC, but they played very well and should be proud of their achievements and how they played against Argentina who I found a little disappointing last night. Congratulations to Mexico for a well hard fought game. They have done their nation proud.

The truth is that they have stopped themselves.Lets remember they had problems in the qualification round of the World Cup.I agree that they have the players.They also have youth in the defense with Sergio Ramos, he gives them the speed they need.Don't forget about Xavi,He gives them organization and orchestrates the attack.Their problem has been scoring when they need to in the last few World Cups.Although Raul is one of my favorite players in the world,I have to say that he has not showed his skills in the last World Cup.This year I feel that he will play with a chip on his shoulder since he had been injured for so long.Also lets not forget about Morientes,he has made numerous clutch goals in the UEFA(AC Monocco,Real Madrid,and Liverpool).They will get through the group stage with no problem.Except they might play France in the 1st leg,Zidane in his last soccer event will give it his all and Henry is unstoppable.Still Spain holds their on destiny and if they get confident this World Cup,they will have the ability to beat just about any team.

Well it's not Sven (I think I'll put Hargreaves on again even though he's a waste of space) Goran Eriksson, that's for sure.\n\nThink it's to early to answer your question, but I think my likely candidate will be someone who's doing well with a less talented team, because lets be honest - you don't have to be a great manager to win the World Cup with Brazil!

First at all that is not the proper first name spelling,  The answer is despite the fact that Mr Blanco has participated in the last 2 world cups representing his country, his present perfomance is not up to par.  I still believe that Mr Blanco should have been chosen due to his experience, leadership and ability to rise to the ocassion on big tournaments. Its pretty bad idea to have a foreigner coach lead your team into such grand tournament.  thanks fraire

Its hard to left behind players like Zico (Brazil), Koeman (Holland), Roberto Baggio (Italy), Cruyff (Holland), Romário (Brazil), Puskas (Hungary), Rossi (Italy), Van Basten (Holland), Klinsmann (Germany), Kempes (Argentina), Muller (Germany), Platini (France), Zoff (Itlay), Matthaus (Germany), Ronaldo (Brazil), Milla (Cameroon), Brehme (Germany), Di Stefano (Argentina)... as many other brilliant players but, since its the best of World Cups, here's my selection:\n\n1. Yashin (ex-URSS)\n\n2. Baresi (Italy)\n3. Beckenbauer -he was central defender, sweeper- (Germany)\n4. Cafú (Brazil)\n5. Maldini (Italy)\n\n6. Maradona (Argentina)\n7. Garrincha (Brazil)\n8. Zidane (France)\n9. Bobby Charlton (England)\n\n10. Eusébio (Portugal)\n11. Pélé (Brazil)

no he will not. he is apparently an idiot because he subs out the wrong defenders and leaves in the one that is assisting the other team in scoring (in reference to us v germany). he needs to be replaced.
