I still think its nuts Mexico didnt call Chicharito

He chose to stay home for the birth of his child.

Herrera chose to stay and settle and prepare for joining Atletico & Vela did what Vela does and stayed home.

Layun, Lozano, Tecatito are all out injured for the tournament.

It would be great if we could possess the ball for a few consecutive passes

Seems we still have the mentality we need to prevent the other team from scoring rather then taking it to them. Reminds me of Canada od old, I dont like it.

Canada has a long way to go to play a possession game.  I know the MLS clubs are slowly changing the tactics and trying to play possession but othet than Davis, and cavallini, nobody on the Canadian team has flair to string small passes together.

I think this is a very intentional game plan. Keep their chances limited, keep them off the score sheet, disciplined defence, and loo for chances on the break. It may not be swashbuckling footy but I think it makes sense against Mexico.
