What does Toluca beating Boca Juniors have to do with anything? Boca Juniors are an Argentinian team...
Anyways Mexico just don't put enough money into their program as the USA does...although Mexican players do have more skill/talent.

The Mexican national team is more talented than the U.S. team, but their strategy against the Americans in the U.S. has not been so good. They seem to control the pace, but makes that critical mistake or two to lose the game. That's what happened a few weeks ago.
But the U.S. team has never beaten the Mexican team in Mexico City (0-22-1)!!! So I can't see why any American can say the U.S. team is better than Mexico's! The gap is closing, but unless the U.S. can win in Mexico City... No way is it better.
Actually, the American team has problems winning outside the U.S. (especially in Europe). You can't be a top flight team unless you can win on the road...
Ghana's pretty good... Michael Essien is one of the best midfielders in the world today. They looked great against the U.S. and Czech Republic at the World Cup.

Most of the people are American, the National team has nobody with dual citizenship. We KNOW we are better than you b/c we beat you 9 out of the last 12 times and outscored you 16 to 3 in those games. Plus Houston Dynamo just kicked the crap out of Pachuca 2-0, you know your "champion of last year" and Dynamo isn't even playing a season right now. So to answer your question, just look at the facts, Mexico was better than the US 20 years ago, but not today, sorry about that....

The US tries harder against Mexico, and so the stats are in their favour. Mexico may be a better team overall, but no one can deny the fact the the US beat them where it counted the most: at the world cup.

I'm not a soccer fan, but would like to commit about your details... Where do you think Americans come from?? There are people from every country on the globe that call America home. That's what makes it America!

I personally, am an American who is terrible at soccer. I was on a team in 7th grade, we came in dead-last in our league. I had to throw the ball in once when it went out of bounds, and I threw it the wrong way! So, Americans do not generally think they are great at soccer.
I'm sure if I had to play against Mexico, whether that be a professional team from Mexico, or the entire Mexican population, I would definitely lose.

Because USA beat Mexico in the World Cup, because USA won the last Gold Cup, because USA finished first in CONCACAF w.c. qualifying, and because USA beat Mexico in the last friendly they played. How's that for starters?
