In fact, they're so scared that they started the Confeds Cup game against us with their reserve line-up. And when that didn't quite work in the first half, they made a couple of subs and a small tactical switch, and casually arse raped us for 45 minutes.

He's not saying the Mexicans would be scared of us, he's just saying that we would be better placed to be competitive as opposed to the shambles of 2013. Any fool can see that.
Sure they weren't at full strength, but we got under their skin and they didn't like it. They were hardly at full strength on paper in 2013 either - playing only domestic players based on their coach's club team, but still spanked us.
