he's been leaving out nasri for ages, or at least he's made quite a few squads but hardly ever gets a spot on the team. wasn't sure if benzema would make it to the world cup but you would of expected him in the preliminary squad surely

He's not there to manage the team, he's there to collect his pay check and leave.

Domenech is a clear wanker. Hes probs did this so if France make the semis or something which is highly unlikely he will be like Told you so.

The guys an absolute wanker, there isnt a bigger wanker in the WC then him.

No Nasri? Come on what drugs is this cunt on ay?

for the fact he has left out nasri...i hate them even more...

i hope they get knocked out first round.

I can understand no Benzema, he hasn't been playing much this season at Madrid so there are better options in Anelka, Gignac and Cisse...but then, I'm not sure why Henry's there either in some regards.

I can't understand why Nasri and Menez have been ignored. That boggles the mind.

Nasri??!!! i was only thinking the other day what a line up France up with Ribery and Nasri in midfield!

anybody for knocked out first round!!!

I can understand some of this. But no Benzema?

hellas_johnny im an arsenal fan and quite frankly besides one or two good appearances from nasri (such as that amazing goal he scored passing about 3 defenders on his own) he's had a pretty average season and is as guilty as the rest of the team for our 3rd place finish. he still hasn't lived up to his marsielle reputation

DOMENECH OUT! WORSE THAN FF AND GA.

Not surprised by Viera being out but I'm especially surprised by Benzema and Nasri not being picked like WTF.

wtf is wrong with them, not picking Nasri, he has played awesome for Arsenal this season. What an absolute dumb coach.



What do you think about the FourFourTwo article Vieira, Benzema Fail to Make France Squad?
MANCHESTER City midfielder Patrick Vieira and Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema have been omitted from France's 30-man preliminary squad for the World Cup in South Africa.

Have your say.
