from any country
lets start off with brazil, well no adriano which is no suprise but no ronaldinho?? after watching him in the last 2 world cups it will be strange not seeing him there, and from what i've seen he's been pretty decent for ac milan this season
viera hahahahahahahahahaha done a david beckham by joining a team on loan to try and get into the world cup squad, sorry paddy but was never gonna happen with that bunch of blue money grabbing twats
BENZEMA am abit suprised because i've hardly heard of any of the NINE STRIKERS! in frances provisional 30, yeh hes scored 9 goals this season, but since xmas anelka has scored about 3 all comming against shit teams! henrys been playing shit since the whole handball thing and his performance against le arse in the champions league summed it up but i spose he is captain so thats the only reason he's there
any others? feel free to post!

Nasri - france have enough softies tho that fall over at the drop of a hat(excluding Evra) so i guess its not a surprise.
Pato - altho he is young
On the plus side we only have about 8 players to worry about at the WC - altho they nearly constitute a first team squad: Hernandez, Rio, Carrick, Rooney, Vidic, Evra, Park & Nani

id take nasri in my squad, i think france will fail at the world cup anyway, their manager just dont have a clue haha
i would of took pato aswel, brazil are known for taking youngsters to world cups and making a name for them selfs there
also no nistelrooy for holland
no totti or del piero for italy

yeah - Totti is abit of a surprise alright. And i spose Del Piero is too seen as the Italians prefer their WC players to have experience. Still have a strong team tho

yeh its wierd lookin at englands team and there not being beckham or owen, abit the same as ronaldinho with brazil
had owen stayed fit and rooney got injured, i think owen got of played himself into the squad coz he probs would of started all them games and given rooney enuff time to full recover
as for beckham well if he stayed fit i would of taken him but always had a deep feeling he was not gonna get picked because capello has always had him on the bench even from his madrid days

cambiasso has been brilliant for inter - and zanetti seems to be the argie version of giggs! Could be a big loss for them - although with Messi in there they should scrape through

Argentina : Too much white stuff that El Diego has no grey cells left... No manager in their right mind would leave out Cambiasso and Zanetti... Coloccini being picked says it all France : What else do you expect from Domenech ? Frey, Mexes, Nasri (atleast a footballer as compared to Ben Arfa who is more of a play actor) should have been shoo ins... The only omission probably justified is one Mr Benzema who if am correct had already lost out his first team spot to Gignac... Still, might be better than the other ones who I have heard little of... England : Phil Nev and Wes Brown... Can't understand the logic behind picking 3 LB's and only one RB... Not only can both Nev and Brown operate in a variety of positions, both are far better than some of the players picked ahead of them... For me, both Totti & RvN's exclusion is a bit surprising since both could have been more than handy as impact subs... Dinho was never really gonna make it despite what everyone said.. Dunga was clear that he is gonna trust those that helped Brazil in qualifying and he was true to his word...

about the 1 right back with england
carragher can play there which is why he was picked but to call up mr. liverpool after a shit season over gary neville is pretty unfair i think
