Barring injuries this will be the Spanish squad for the World Cup…

Spain coach Vicente Del Bosque has said that the squad he has selected
for La Furia Roja’s remaining World Cup qualifiers will be the group
he takes to next years finals in South Africa.
Del Bosque’s side have already secured their place at the World Cup
finals having won European Qualifying Group Five with two games to
spare but Del Bosque has chosen to keep his best possible selection
for the remaining qualifiers, away to Armenia next Saturday, followed
by another away date with second-placed Bosnia four days later.
Such is the coach’s determination to keep the squad together that he
has been willing to incur the wrath of both Barcelona and Villarreal
by including Andres Iniesta and Marcos Senna who have just returned
from injury.
"The selection is not a closed shop but unless their are injuries or
unexpected changes, this is the group that will represent us at the
World Cup," Del Bosque said according to AS.
Those who have not been included in the squad, including Sevilla
striker Alvaro Negredo and Valencia’s Pablo Hernandez, know now that
they must produce something extra special to sway Del Bosque’s
thinking.
