So who do you think will win this years CONCACAF GOLD CUP? Mexico seems very strong with

I don't know but I see Mexico, Honduras, Panama, USA in the finals.

I think (hope) that Mexico will win...
I think the final should be Mexico-USA
Panama, Costa Rica and Honduras als olook strong

Theres no competition in North/Central American football, if Mexico doesnt win ..................

Didn't Mexico just lost halve their team due to doping?

They lost 5 players, but I believe is just a strategy so those 5 players can play in the Copa America, which has stronger teams (Brazil, Argentina, Chile...)

The only game that matters in this cup is the final, and everyone expects to be USA vs Mexico at then end; I hope Mexico can Win it this time....

Didn't Mexico win last time?

Yeah but here's the thing... there's a gold cup every 2 years, but only one of them is important; the one after the world cup (this one) because if you win it, it gives you a ticket for the Confederation cup, where all the champions of every zone plays.

2007 gold cup was won by the US and they attended the Confederation cup in 2009, where they eliminated Spain (Europe's Champions) but were defeated in the final by Brazil (south america's champion).

Then we have the other Gold cup, that only gives you a trophy for winning.... that's the case for Mexico's 2009 gold cup. So I rather them win this one and lose the one in 2 years....

I didn't know that. Thank you for enlightening me! Well Mexico seems strong right now despite losing 5 players. 

Sorry, but this doesn't make any sense to me.

Isn't the Gold Cup the equivalent to Uefa EURO, Copa América, African Cup, AFC Asian Cup and OFC Nations Cup? If so, all Gold Cup titles are of course equivalent important.

The Confederations Cup, on the other hand, is the unimportant tournament which is only a dress rehearsal for the upcoming world cups. No one cares about it.

The difference between the Gold Cup and the others is that while the others are played every 4 years the Gold cup is played every 2 years. Because of that, only one of the Gold Cups [out of 2] gives you a ticket to the Confederations Cup [since its also played every 4 years]. The whole thing is a scheme to make more money because there is really no competition here, it's either Mexico or US. And I dont understand why all of the Gold Cups are played in the US and not in the other countries. [Probably to make even more money]

-The one that gives you the ticket to the Confederations is always the one played immediately after the last World Cup, 2 years later there is another one that gives you basically nothing.

-This is only the current situation given that the Gold Cup guidelines have been changed so often.
