Mexican coach Ricardo Lavolpe has threatened to walk out of the job if someone tries to include Cuauhtemoc Blanco in his World Cup squad against his will.

Lavolpe: "My players already know what my idea for the World Cup is, but if in the Federation they think that I haven't announced the best players, I think that they still have time to end my contract and hire a new coach.

"From the list of 26 players that I have announced, three will not be travelling to Germany and there will not be any other recall for new players that haven't been included in the list that I have already announced."

Mexican soccer is beginning to look like Nigerian soccer.

Too much politics, and the game suffers.

Prediction: Mexico will not make it past the first round. They will lose to Iran and Portugal. Maybe even Angola!
