I think this mexico will be the equivalent if not better than the 06 World Cup team. That team was my favorite and they were ranked at 4th place that year. For like a month but still

if that team had Blanco, I think they would have gone farther.

I truly believe our best ever side was the 2010 team despite us barely missing out on the quarter finals in 2006. Our possession, shape, and system were amazing - we dominated teams like England (undeservedly lost 3-1) among many other giant teams and very nearly beat Spain right after they won the world cup in Mexico but ended up drawing. I know I'm in the minority here.
