Playing below expectations, Lionel Messi was not named in the worst squad of the 2018 World Cup when Squawka chose Thomas Muller for the attacking midfielder position.

Goalkeeper | David De Gea | Spain | According to Squawka, David De Gea conceded 6 goals from 7 shots on target. That means the La Roja goalkeeper only had 1 save at the 2018 World Cup.


Centre-back | Jerome Boateng | Germany | He was poor in the shock 1-0 defeat to Mexico in the opening game, but Jerome Boateng was even worse against Sweden, receiving a red card. The Bayern Munich star's poor form contributed to Germany's group-stage exit from the 2018 World Cup.

Center-back | Mats Hummels | Germany | Not only did he make a direct mistake leading to the only goal against Mexico, Mats Hummels also missed three good chances in the 0-2 loss to South Korea.

Right-back | Fagner | Brazil | Called in to replace the injured Dani Alves, Fagner has failed to prove his worth on Brazil's right wing. The defender was also the Selecao's most fouled player at the 2018 World Cup, having been penalised seven times for taking down opponents.

Left-back | Kim Min-woo | South Korea | According to Squawka, Kim Min-woo lost the ball 16.4 times per 90 minutes of play at the 2018 World Cup. In addition, this defender also had a careless tackle that caused South Korea to be awarded a penalty and lose 0-1 to Sweden.

Central midfielder | Javier Mascherano | Argentina | Age has made Javier Mascherano lose his solidity and often lose out in the battle in the midfield area. According to statistics from Squawka, the Argentine "veteran" committed 3.75 fouls per 90 minutes at the 2018 World Cup.

Right Midfielder | David Silva | Spain | The veteran Man City star showed inexplicable lack of luck when he missed the target with all 10 shots at the 2018 World Cup.

Central midfielder | Carlos Sánchez | Colombia | Receiving a direct red card and causing 2 penalties, Carlos Sanchez is considered the "dumbbell star" of Colombia at the 2018 World Cup.

Left midfielder | Maximilliano Meza | Argentina | In addition to his “harmless” performance at the 2018 World Cup, Maximilliano Meza is also the player who has failed to save the ball the most in the Argentina squad (9 times)

Attacking midfielder | Thomas Muller | Germany | Playing like an “invisible man” in Die Mannschaft's attack, Thomas Muller had no goals or assists at the 2018 World Cup.

Striker | Robert Lewandowski | Poland | Despite being the player with the most shots in the Polish squad, Robert Lewandowski missed all 9 shooting opportunities at the 2018 World Cup.

Worst World Cup 2018 squad voted by Squawka.
