Oh shi-
Friendly reminder:
Playing and winning friendlies causes your rating to fall.
Example: before the 2014 WC, England played and won two friendlies. Had England not arranged those friendlies, they would've been ranked higher and therefore seeded for the WC group stage.
This happens because when they take the average points, they include weightings in the numerator but not the denominator.
>it's an /sp/ spergs out over an irrelevant ranking episode
>>66647755
Journalists have to make hype out of everything or they don't sell newspapers.
>>66647287
>every team in the top 7 is ass except Germany
>they are ranked FIVE (5)
Honestly though does anyone put any stock into the FIFA world rankings? They've always been complete shit with a backwards ass system that makes no sense.
>>66647542

>>66649127
7-1 sounds better than 8 1 or 8 0 2bqhwyf (2 be quite honest with you faam
>>66649445
nah it ain't be like you say it do
the result woulda been 8-0 because goal celebration time would have made it impossible for brazil to score their honorable goal in the last minute
either that or they would have stopped playing by then anyway
>inb4 implying they did play before
>>66649445
Nah, 8-0 would have been
>8razil
Which would have been even more GOAT than >7-1
senpai we just beat germany and only 10
>implying coc cola isnt just being nice to those countries because of the nosecandy bribes
>cape verde islands dropped 16 places
Who bested this footballing giant
>>66648074
they would have ended in an easier group if they didn't play and won those two friendlies before the world cup
>>66649644
>not 8raznil

Do you even know how the ranking system works?
>>66651113
I know but that doesn't mean it's a good system and I can't understand why the fuck do they use it when it doesn't represent reality
>>66651053
>1. England
k e k
>>66651149
You mean it doesn't represent your own view and opinion?
>taking Fifa rankings seriously
>>66651104
>whales
>>66651165
You really think Argentina is the best team in the world right now? Or Belgium 2nd? or CHILE 3rd? Or are you just memeing with all you've got?
>>66649359
>yfw the pressure to finally win something somehow goes up
how does tata keep getting away with it?
>>66647287
you have been trolled germany
this is exactley what they wanted when they made the list
>>66651205
They rank teams based on their results in a 4 year time span using explicitly stated formula (which you may or may not agree with, that's another issue). It doesn't show what teams are the "best" at this time, but rather how they performed in that period of time.

>>66651322
if P = M x I x T x C, then how is E = MC2
Great how many official tittles and cups do we get for this?
0? wow then why the fuck is this important?
Also Germany is still the best team in the world, Argentina just got the 1st place for the last 2 wins in the qualifier, one of it is against Chile (actual champion of the Copa America).
>Brazil is 7th
> 1 place lower
>7 -1
Like poetry
>>66650998
>struggling against a B team Chile, with 2 key Midfield players s
out at the beginning.
Fuck you narigón, you arent that good either.
>>66651205
The rankings are only really used for seeding tournaments anyway. Don't get mad.
>le european teams are underrated again list
>>66651093
2014
Englel: 1 point, in a group with Costa Rica and Italy
USA: Advanced to Round of 16, after being drawn in a group with Ghana and Portugal
2010
USA won Group C over Englel, and beat them in the head to head 1-1
but you're right, usmnt is shit now
>>66658372
Bless, you Ameritards are really thick.
>>66658419
>but you're right, usmnt is shit now
I guess they don't teach reading comprehension over there in mudslimeland
only sudacas care about this shit.
They literally fill pages and pages on shitty soccer forums about this.
>>66647921
>is Elo ranking better?
Yes.
>>66647287
>Losing to Englel
>>66647287
>Al-Belgium
>Shitle
>Cokelombia
when will these memes end???
>>66647921
yes this is the accepted opinion
even with south american qualifiers, Spain was first place for years
Germany is just shit.
>>66647755
>they're making a hype out of
That's literally what journalists are supposed to do m8
>>66647627
No you dense fuck.
It mean qualifiers are more important than friendlies.
> FIFA provides a ranking and the explain how it works in the same website
> it has been working like that since the first year
> "reeeee what is hapenning, stupid corrupts"
If you are going to get mad over a ranking you already know its mechanism, you are an idiot
This is only really relevant for the first 8 teams since they are seeds for WCs.
Besides that it's a giant meme and I said that when Uruguay was second some years ago.
>>66647944
Cape Verde are pretty good desu, they have players in Moortugal and other European leagues. One of their strikers plays in Mexico.
I literally can't recall any current Australian player. Maybe that backup Valencia keeper?
>messi will never win a world cup
>>66658372
Come on man, WC games don't count, it's all about how many times you can beat San Marino in qualifiers that shows the true talent of a team.
