MONTERREY, Mexico -- Mexico's interim head coach Ricardo Ferretti dispelled suggestions that players haven't been called up to El Tri's squad for any reason other than the coach wanting to bring along a younger generation of players.
ESPN's Herculez Gomez reported that players were left out in the cold for speaking out about the lack of a collective bargaining agreement, while a Univision report suggested there was a divide between the Mexican federation (FMF) and players such as Javier Hernandez, Miguel Layun, Andres Guardado and Hector Moreno, none of whom are in the current squad.
