World Football (Soccer) Thread

Well I like several sports: American Football, Hockey and Football (Soccer). Wel there are plenty of threads to talk about Hocky here and plenty of threads to talk about the NFL so I figured I would start up a World Soccer Thread since there are plenty of football fans out there.

Here everything Football (Soccer) can be discussed.

Oh and if you dont like Football (Soccer): syscom3 then please dont post stupid stuff like you tried to do during the World Cup 2006, just dont post in this thread.

First glance impression is that this rank is heavily based on the last year results: I don't see Brazil behind Italy and France as global evaluation.

Is it related only to national teams or the global results of all the Country teams ?
In the latter case I would agree on Italy #1 because of Milan winning the Champions league this year, in addition to the W. cup in 2006.
But I think the 2007 south america equivalent (libertadores cup) still has to be assigned and a Brazilian team could win it.

Also Greece seems to me a bit too low at #15: all in all they won the last European cup

Every month the rankings change around the 15th. It is based off of the games they played in the last 30 days. If you are currently loosing you will be dropping in the ranks. It also takes into account the opponants that you are playing. If you are playing the 199th ranked team and win 25-0 you will not get as many points as someone who beats the 3rd ranked team 1-0.

It does not account for the club teams from each country.

These are the official FIFA rankings and can be seen at FIFA.com

It's still 8 weeks until the Premiership kicks off; living without football is a nightmare! I never take any notice of the FIFA rankings, after our current displays I don't think we even belong in the top 20

....

No problem, that game was lost even before the last penalty shot was trown. J. Pekermann is a fine manager but I dont know why the F...K he take out Riquelme who is a specialist in penalty kicks and why the F...K he cant put Messi at list some minutes in the field.

The injure of Abbondanzieri (who also is a good GK in penalties) dindt help either.
