Marco Fabian

Marco Jhonfai Fabian de la Mora (born July 21, 1989). Marco is probably one of the more skillful players Mexican league has had; the player formed in Chivas. In his best days can be considered one of the best players in the continent. The problem with Fabian is his consistency, and lately the injuries he has been going through. Marco debuted in 2007 with Chivas and since then he has had up and downs, but nobody doubts about Fabian’s technique and ability to change the game. Fabian is increasing day by day and he has been more constant in the last couple of years, we all remember the two goals he scored against FC Barcelona in 2011, or the great tournament he had in Toulon in 2012 being the top scorer and tied the record of Alan Shearer with 7 goals. Also Fabian was the top goal scorer in the 2012 CONCACAF Men’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament with the Under-23 national team in which Mexico was the champion. Fabian was part of the London 2012 squad that won the gold medal, being a very important player for this team and scoring against Japan in the semifinals.

Teams around the world have shown interest in Fabian since 2010, including the offer Chivas denied for him for more than 10 million euros from Bayern Munich. Marquito is a player that needs to go to Europe and increase his game. It is very important for him and for Mexico that Fabian goes to a good club in Europe the next summer. Fabian is a great player we need to encourage him to keep evolving and to be that great player that we know he is.

Hector Moreno

When we talk about consistency and a solid center back, we talk about Hector Moreno. Hector Alfredo Moreno was born in Culiacan, Mexico 25 years ago. A center back that has shown consistency and commitment his entire career.  Hector is probably the best player in the Mexico national team roster. A solid defender that is very hard to get over him. The great touch he has to complete long and short passes, the great game he has in the air wining headers makes Moreno such a complete player. Hector is the future Capitan of Mexico national team.

Moreno former player of Pumas de la UNAM departed Mexico in 2008 to play for the Dutch team AZ Alkmaar in the Eredivisie. After been completely successful and wining one league and one cup, Hector was transfer to Spanish club Espanyol de Barcelona. Moreno is a starter for Espanyol and the most important defender in this squad. Mexico is lucky to have one of the best center backs in the world; important clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter de Milan know the capacity of the Mexican player and have shown interest for him. Hopefully for Hector and for Mexico one of this big clubs purchases him. Moreno was part of the U-17 squad in 2005 when Mexico was the champion in the World Cup, winning the first Under-17 world cup for Mexico. He also played the Under-20 world cup in 2007. Also he was part of the squad for the South Africa 2010 World Cup. We are going to see Hector at his best level for the 2014 Brazil World Cup. By know we keep enjoying of the great soccer that this Mexican international has.

Great player.
