Inter Milan striker Diego Milito expressed his sympathy for Esteban Cambiasso and Javier Zanetti.
Both have been left out of Diego Maradona's World Cup squad in South Africa, despite having won the treble with Inter Milan this season.
Milito, who starred for the Nerazzurri in what turned out to be a watershed campaign, felt sorry for his club mates.
Speaking to Il Corriere dello Sport, he said: "As their team-mate and friend I am sorry they are not here."
"They are very important players, but we must respect the decisions of Diego Maradona."
Speaking about his own ambitions, the striker said: "Like the others selected I want to play in every match for the national team. Argentina is among the favourites for the World Cup,"
While Milito has to be diplomatic about the national coach in public, others have not been so kind to the former legend.
Almost all pundits fear Maradona will lead the sensationally talented team to disaster with his inconsistent and sometimes downright bizarre selection decisions and strategies.
