Allzo 91 Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I was playing the FIFA world cup game yesterday as Mali (I don't know why) and it got me thinking - who are the best players to never appear in a world cup?For the current generation, Dzeko of Wolfsburg and Kanoute spring to mind, and obviously Ryan Giggs. Sure, they aren't superstars but they're still fairly good players. I'm guessing it'll be players from relatively unknown nations... and Scotland of course, since we never qualify for anything. So yeah, who are the best players to never feature in a world cup to date? Giggs is the biggest shock to me so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
