The new generation of Mexican footballers is ready to take El Tri to the first spot of next year's Hexagonal as well as to the fifth match of the World Cup, something the squad has never achieved while playing outside the country.

Although we are almost two years away from Brazil 2014, José Manuel de la Torre has already given us a clear idea of what his team will look like.

He may try out some different footballers along the way, but the list should be close to this:

 

Goalkeeper

Starter: José de Jesús Corona

Subs: Guillermo Ochoa and Alfredo Talavera



Jesús Corona showed what he is capable of at the Summer Olympics and he should be José Manuel de la Torre's first choice.

"Chuy" needs to work in his aerial game, but other than that he is a fantastic goalkeeper. Guillermo Ochoa will be fighting for the spot, but he needs to prove why he deserves it.

 

Defenders

Starters: Jorge Torres Nilo (LB), Héctor Moreno (CB), Javier Rodríguez (CB) and Severo Meza (RB)

Subs: Adrián Aldrete (LB), Diego Reyes (CB), Hirám Mier (CB) and Israel Jiménez (RB)

 

Héctor Moreno has been a cornerstone of Mexico's defense. With Rafael Márquez out of the picture he needs to be El Tri's leader.

Javier Rodríguez has been solid too, but he needs to stay focused. Hiram Mier or Diego Reyes can take his place in some matches. Both youngsters have played fantastic this year,

Jorge Torres Nilo has been compared with Carlos Salcido over and over, he can fill those shoes in some years, and so far he has been doing very well.

Severo Meza is a strong player that knows how to defend but also how to help the offense thanks to his fine ball touch.
