MANCHESTER CITY MIDFIELDER Samir Nasri was left off the France World Cup team in a mild surprise, and his girlfriend is not happy about it.
Nasri had a bit of a falling out with coach Didier Deschamps after a poor performance in a World Cup qualifying playoff game against Ukraine last year. As a result, he’ll be watching the World Cup from home despite being arguably the best French player in the Premier League.

Nasri has been diplomatic about the snub. He told the AP on Sunday, “I’ll go on holiday and watch the World Cup on TV.”
The people around him aren’t as reserved, though. His club coach Manuel Pellegrini said he should be on the team. And after the squad was announced this evening his girlfriend, British model Anara Atanes, went nuts on Twitter.
