Belgium FIFA World Cup 2018 - Russia Squad, The Strongest Line Up

If you had asked for the perfect World Cup squad, of strong defenders, crafty midfielders and resilient forwards, you might get Belgium. The squad is full of stars, men who have won titles, who can single-handedly make or break a game.

Nainggolan, the sturdy midfielder was left out of the squad and that made him retire from International Football. To be true to Martinez, Nainggolan was injured and could not convince him. 

 

 

Even without him, Belgium if they tick and that is a big IF, they will wreak havoc. No other side has a defence that can match their attacking threat.
