Gio a no go

Giovani Dos Santos won't be part of the Mexican squad that faces Honduras in a critical World Cup qualifier on Nov. 19. Dos Santos will have his ankle operated on and is out four to six weeks.

Perhaps that may explain some of his tough times with Tottenham as Dos Santos has not played in the last four league games.

Whatever the case, Dos Santos needs surgery and will be lost to El Tri for the duration of this year.
