strange i always though he was uruguaian but after reading about him on wikipedia he was eligible for greece, mexico and uruguay.

i remember him on championship manager when i was managing olympiacos and he always turned into a great player.

hopefully he will be a big hit in the premiership. i would imagine him and elano playing well together. at this rate city are looking promising for the CL next season, erikson sure has got an eye for talent.

I'd like to say that his father is from Uruguay, and that Nery grew up in Montevideo.

Notwithstanding, he is a Mexican player and, consequently, an asshole.

Undeniably talented though...
