No Lamela in Argentina squad


but Franco Di Santo is in it, it seems.

I hope this is only because he's not fit.

We live in a world where Franco Di Santo gets into the squad before Carlos Tevez. wut.

Sabella hates Tevez and vice versa. Tevez said something on the lines of him being able to outscore Messi or something like that, and would still not make the squad. Sabella said all Tevez will be doing this summer is going to Disneyland and playing golf.

It's a shame because Tevez has been a breath of fresh air for Juve this season, along with Llorente, and is very much in form.

I m retiring from France team. It was a wonderful experience and after a record of #0 cap it's time to say goodbye and focus on my club

Is that real? I hope so, because he's got a great sense of humour if it is. A guy on twitter recently called him shit and his response was something on the lines of "I know I am, but your club is skint and can't afford much better". Brilliant.

FRANCE

Goalkeepers: Lloris, Landreau, Mandanda.

Defenders: Debuchy, Sagna, Koscielny, Sakho, Varane, Mangala, Digne, Evra.

Midfielders: Cabaye, Grenier, Matuidi, Mavuba, Pogba, M. Sissoko, Valbuena

Forwards: Benzema, Giroud, Griezmann, Rémy, Ribéry

The reserve list includes Schneiderlin, Remy Cabella, Gonalons, Lacazette, Perrin, Ruffier and Tremoulinas

Capoue > Sissoko. Capoue was a regular in the France squad at the start of the qualifying campaign so you'd think he'd have probably made the squad had he been playing for us regularly like he was at the start of the season before his injury.

So why exactly did Brazil not call up Costa? Did they try to? Miles ahead of the likes of Fred and Jo.

He has 1 cap for Brasil in a friendly but he opted to play for Spain. A shame, because Brasil could really do with him.

I think he had a straight choice of the 2 and opted for Spain in the end. Dont fancy Brazil's frontline at all, very mediocre.
