Top 10 best players at the 2014 World Cup so far including Arsenal and Manchester United forwards

8. Karim Benzema, France

It’s a similar story for the French, with their best player Franck Ribery ruled out of the competition before it had even started due to a back injury.

Although the only game the nation has played was against the supposedly weak Honduras, Benzema netted twice and forced an own goal to complete a 3-0 victory.
