5 World Class Players That Never Went To A World Cup

By Josh Challies /

4. Ryan Giggs

Another Manchester United and Premier League legend but Ryan Giggs never got the chance to grace the world stage with Wales. Although one of the most decorated footballers of all time, Giggs never had the talent around him on the international stage to get the opportunity to take to the field in a World Cup, a problem that Gareth Bale is also likely to encounter. He's won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup. Practically every trophy he could get his hands on he has but the World Cup will always be the one that got away, several times.
