Samir Nasri's omission from France's World Cup squad was certainly a surprise decision, and while he took it good grace, the same cannot be said for his girlfriend, Anara Atanes.

In a foul-mouthed Twitter rampage on Tuesday night after hearing the news, Anara launched a scathing attack on coach Didier Deschamps for leaving the Manchester City playmaker out of his squad.
