Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri's girlfriend took to Twitter to unleash an expletive-laden rant after her boyfriend got excluded from France's World Cup squad for Brazil.

Nasri's partner Anara Atanes, a British model and actress, tweeted 'f**k' France and 'f**k' Deschamps, what a 's**t' manager, after France boss Didier Deschamps did not include the City midfielder into his 23-man list plus seven standby players for the national squad.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Atanes reinforced her opinion by posting that incase they did not read her tweet properly, she would repeat herself, and added 'f**k' France and 'f**k' Deschamps to her tweet again.

Meanwhile, Deschamps said that Nasri, who played a key role in his club's Premier League title win, is an important player for City but the midfielder has not performed that well with France.

The France manager added that he built the best squad, and he did not pick the 23 best French players.

Vonn said from Florida that rehab is not a fun thing to do, asserting that it could become monotonous, the Washington Times reported.

She, however, added that if one is going through rehab, it's nice to have a partner, who relates to other person's situation and whom they can talk to, rehab and train with.

Woods, in a recent posting on his website, had said that it does help to rehab with Lindsey, however, he added that her programs were much further along than his.

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney reportedly received a trophy by a noodle company as they awarded him their 'man of the munch' trophy after hearing about his 2,000 pound order last year.

Pot Noodles delivered more than 100 pots of the new Brazilian BBQ Steak Flavoured snack to Wayne's house after he was chosen by Roy Hodgson for England's World Cup squad so that he could be a 'winner' before he even touches a ball in Brazil.

According to the Daily Star, Pot Noodle Marketing Manager Monique Rossi said that they do not know what the future holds for the England squad out in Rio but at least the striker will walk away with one trophy this year after the noodle company gave Wayne a trophy for being 'Pot Noodle Man of the Munch'.

Rossi said that they know that the England striker would be under huge pressure out in Brazil so they wanted to send him off a winner.
