If you know German squad very well, then sane should be ball boy. Also Mario Gotze despite he's the World Cup winner, his replacement that are in form are numerous. So everyone relax. Let's talk about our onazi and Joel obi, when they get to Russia, mek dem fine blanket and helmet so that the bench no go tire dem...

Players who didn't make their country's final world cup list


* Sané, Gotze and Schürrle out of Germany's team list


* Luiz and Sandro not included in Brazil's world cup squad

* Martial, Payet, Lacazette and Benzema missing out for France's World cup final team

* Icardi missing out of Argentina's Squad

* Fabregas, Bellerin, Alonso and Morata out of Spain's team list

* Nainggolan out of Belgium's list

* Wilshere not going to the World cup with England

* Neves out of Portugal's world cup team list



Most surprising for me would be Leroy Sane, Martial, Alonso and Benzema


Which of the player's missing out surprised you?

Germany did not win the last world cup relying on any single individual, they played in a system, so did Portugal when they won the Euros with Ronaldo on the sidelines that fateful day. Perhaps some of you have forgotten what happened to Brazil with Neymar and all their flashy stars against a German team playing with a system undecided

Surprisingly u say

A good coach won't include Smalling, hart, bellerin, lacasera in his squad

benzema's case is understandable, he has a big issue with the french national team

but the one that shocked the world is the exclusion of sane and martial

sane is the best winger we have in the Epl now

Playing good in epl doesn't equate to better play with the National team. Sane has played 13 games for Germany without any goals or assists.

According to Martnez:
“I have to make decisions based on the balance of the team,” he explained.

“I think I can say that in the number 10 position, Eden Hazard and Dries Mertens are the best players we have at present.”

“As for Radja, he’s at his best for Roma when he plays in the number 10 role.”

“We don’t really have a similar position [available], and when we tried it, it didn’t really work.”

“Radja is one of those players who isn’t suited to a role on the bench.”

“In every country, you find players who people can’t understand why they aren’t included.”

“Why doesn’t [Cesc] Fabregas get picked for Spain, for example? The hardest thing for a Coach is finding the best balance”.

hazard's main position is as a left winger (u can check it), mertens main position is as a Central forward, secondary striker and left winger and naingolan played in euro 2016 where there was also hazard and mertens, so I think it is no excuse

Though surprising but justifiable. Let him first prove himself at the national side not to mention his choice to bouycot the confed cup for a nose surgery. Talking about sane

Sane,Icardi and Rabiot really surprised me..
Sane was PFA young player of the season, he was instrumental to City title win..
Icardi was instrumental to Inter Milan UCL return after how many years??
Rabiot??..Best midfielder in France last season,in fact one of the top 5 best in Europe..
It feels so sad for these lads!
Martial case is understandable,even as a Utd fan,I knew martial won't make the France team..

Icardi married his fellow club and countryman wife, Maxi Lopez. Of course they won't pick him.. even Maradona criticized him for that. He knows he has no place in Argentine National team, and Messi is Lopez's friend.
Rabiot is still young, many more international call up awaits him...
Sane wasn't good enough for the National team, yeah he was good day with club, but he just don't have that German spirit that makes them perform better for country.. 13 matches and no goal and assist, terrible stat if you ask me..

Rabiot
What has marriage got to do with this issue??.
Higuain cost Argentina the WC at the last finals, and he still makes the team again...
Icardi,a better player and even younger doesn't make the team because "he married"..
Wasn't that on mutual concept??
Idk how that concerns Argentina..I'm
Thy should just forget this year WC,maybe 2022 own they can Mount a challenge..

They are supposed to be some kind of role model for the kids of Argentina and football as a whole.. it's a scandal that doesn't go well with the Nation and football world as a whole.
Klose was included in 2014 WC at the age of 34. Gomez is in this year too, give people a chance bro, Higuain will sure probe you wrong.

but a player appears more in club side than country.
I think d club side performance shud be a criteria. not even thinking again. it is
club side is the criteria with which you get invites, but no sensible coach will field an unproductive player.

You get invited to the National team based on club exploits and you retain a spot in the National team based on consistent returns in the National team.

Many players are going to the World Cup, not because they have the best club form, but because their contributions in the national team cannot be overlooked. The issue with most football watchers though that, they think club form is automatic visa to a national team


Would you field a player with 1 assist and 0 goals in 12 gamed when you have a player with 3 assists and 5 goals in 10 games?
