    your "10 Up-and-Coming Mexican Strikers Who Can Be the Next Chicharito" was not what i expected it to be when i read it. first off because erik torres and taufic guarch dont belong on that list. Guarch had his chance and came back to mexico after 10months of playing in la liga with espanyol B and erik torres is not going to be that player that everyone wants him to be he has had plenty of chances and alot of playing time to show his potential with chivas and that mexican national team under 23. my most wild concern of the list you made is that you dont have DIEGO REYES, HIRAM MIER and HECTOR HERRERA! They are the future pearls for mexico. They are part of the elite group that won the olympic gold this summer. im not saying it was a bad article because you had good players like espericueta and marco bueno but you were missing the best of la liga MX man.

    Dear Thomas,
    Your article about ranking best 50 world stadiums is very interesting. Just one little mistake to correct, the Borg El Arab stadium is in Alexandria and not in Cairo, Egypt.
    Best Regards,
    Nabil El Gazzar
