Top three players who could have played in their last World Cups

#1 David Silva

The midfielder looked fantastic for Manchester City under Pep Guardiola in their title-winning season having perfected his playing style, heading into the World Cup in great spirits after one of his best Premier League seasons.

Silva sadly couldn't replicate his partnership with Kevin de Bruyne and Fernandinho at club level with his compatriots in the national team and ended by having a poor, uneventful tournament. The Spanish maestro didn't fit into the system Spain used in midfield and now 32-years-old could have played his final tournament.

It's a bit surprising to think that after the season that Silva had he would enjoy a bright World Cup and harsh to think it will his final World Cup. The fact is in four years time, Silva will be 36 and with the talent coming through the ranks in Spain, it is highly unlikely he will get a look in. However, after being part of the 2010 squad that won the tournament, Silva will look back at his World Cup career with fond memories.
