Pato and Benzema not selected for World Cup!

There have been a handful of questionable exclusions from the World Cup squads and we're here to point them out to you. 

Read on to find out who else you won't be seeing at the World Cup. 

Brazil -

Pato: Is simply to good to leave out of any side, he's fast, creative and this world cup could be his coming of age, his opportunity to break out and establish himself as the star everyone admits he could be. Instead, Dunga leaves him at home on the couch while everyone else tries to remember whether Robinho has actually ever played a good game, Nilmar has actually scored a goal and Grafite isn't actually a piece of rock.

Ronaldinho: The Brazil squad for this world cup is everything the 2006 side wasn't. Tough, determined, but also interesting. There is no Brazilian flair in this team, and its called Brazilian flair for a reason. How could anyone justify the inclusion of Kaka and not Ronaldinho? His snubbing beggars belief.

Diego: So, Juventus weren't very good this season. That may have something to do with the fact that Juvenstus AREN'T very good as a team. They do, however, possess one of the world's most talented attacking and creative midfielders, and surely if Kleberson can find himself a spot, Diego could be given a chance as well.

Argentina -

Esteban Cambiasso: This, for me, was simply a joke. Cambiasso has been, and without a doubt remains, one of the worlds greatest midfielders. He suffers for not playing in Spain or England, but the quality of the man in undeniable. To leave him out of this squad, let alone the first XI surely should have Argentinians rioting in the streets.

Javier Zannetti: He's old, he's not quick, and his time may have passed. But Argentina have no one better. I'm sorry, but they just don't.

France -

Karim Benzema: I actually have absolute no qualms about this omission to be honest. He's wasted away at Real Madrid, a move to a team like Manchester United or Bayern as was suggested would have been so much more beneficial for his development, but the dollar signs lit up in his eyes, and he's dug his own grave.

Samir Nasri: I'm biased. There's no getting past it. But whatever anyone says, even if Samir himself phoned me up and told me he didn't deserve a spot, I wouldn't believe it.

There are other players who it has been argued deserve a place. Ruud Van Nistelrooy is a prime example of this, but honestly, how could you leave out RVP or Huntelaar? He's past it, and its beginning to show. I have issues with others, not just in these three, select teams, but these three share one, undeniable trait: Their coaches are not fit to manage their teams.
