What did you think, though, Herc, about how El Turco Mohammed is talking about Marcel Ruiz's possible return here in a very short amount of time with what we expected?

That's a great point, Shaq, because I know that we discussed a little earlier about the timing of it, right?

He's 25 years old.

We know that the World Cup is right around the corner.

And this at the end, and I know we've had this discussion before about it being a personal decision, but this is a radical decision.

decision at the end hurt?

ESPN FC
Futbol Americas: CONCACAF Champions Cup Recap + Herc's USMNT Striker Picks + Is FIFA Scamming the Fans? + Marcel Ruiz Health Doubts + Drippin or Trippin

Yeah.

I'm sure the same thoughts are surrounding even the Mexican national team and the possibility of not having him before it was they're not going to have him at all.

And now it's is it even a good decision to give him minutes in the World Cup to take him if he's going to want to play the full 90 et cetera et cetera.

At the end, we are not psychologists.

So hopefully at the end, it would be the best decision for a very young 25-year-old Marcel Ruiz with a long career ahead of him.
