not sure what we've done to merit being on this list at all tbh

[–] nutelamitbutter@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How are we 14? We should be around 40-50

[–] IamEkremImamyan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Northern Cyprus is 92th😯

When I was a child and the world cup 2002 came and went for Ireland, I just assumed that we'd always be good. Ever since Denmark hammered us in Dublin, it's been pretty bleak.

Sweden fell off of a cliff.

Switzerland is on their way to join them. They've lost points in 5 of their last 6 games. And the one they won was against Andorra (+1).

hey, cool list. mine bartender's from Germany so I guess they're a pretty good soccer country or something lol

[–] MasterfulMesut@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Looking at these rankings makes me think we should expand the world cup to 64 teams and make it knockout stages from the get go, but it is two legged affairs until the semifinals where its one game

so then the finalists only play 3 more games. It's better for everyone I think.

Hows the US and Mexico so high?

[–] GigglyWalrus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

USA on 1776 points

[–] AIR-2-Genie4Ukraine@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

1 year change is brutal, denmark -10 japan +12 germany -5

a wc with italy and germany in the second seeding pot would be something else for the group stages

[–] Proletarian1819@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

England surely should be higher than Spain and Portugal since they've performed better than both in International tournaments over the last few years?

[–] No_Nothing101@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Croatia should be higher

[–] Asentry_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

15 BABBBYYY

[–] GamingMunster@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Italy, Japan and Germany all together, sus

[–] Deruz0r@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Romania 48 :') at least we're at the euros!

[–] StupidMastiff@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The US rating is 1776, they're at their most powerful.

[–] Tirums@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nigeria is such an interesting one! On paper there’s so much talent there and historically it’s a country that’s produced so many good players.

Just for whatever reason, internationally they struggle to glue together.

[–] Fairlytallguy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lost 10 spots in a year and rightly so, I still do think that Denmark is a top 15 nation

[–] Element77@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How Page didn't get sacked after the world cup i'll never know. He's ruined us over the last year.

[–] satomasato@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ver a los troncos entre Países Bajos y Bélgica me alegra, hasta el momento han hecho una buena clasificación

[–] GoldenJet01@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ireland has been falling off :(

[–] BubbleBlacKa@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What a job Steve Clarke is doing!

[–] suweiyda91@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How on earth has nigeria fallen so hard tf.

[–] Emma-Royds@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Kurdistan? When did Kurdistan get a national team?

[–] Constant_List6829@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

46th...lucky to be top 60

[–] CMN2425@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

When the fuck did we become 38th?

[–] Neither-Assignment16@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hungary at the highest iv ever seen them in my lifetime.

[–] fadedv1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Poland 🤝🏻 Sweden , we both shite

[–] vamp_asuka@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How tf are we 3rd? Did the Nations League mean that much for the ranking lol

[–] robyculous_v2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jamaica sitting at 57* is pretty good. We are in the last 4 of the CONCACAF Nations League playoffs and qualified for next year’s Copa America.

[–] C_stat@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

CONCACAF should be embarrassed

[–] xWolfShadowx@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Luxembourg at 74 is impressive. 2006 we were 195th in the FIFA Ranking

[–] SantiSpinola@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So, top 10, top 8, and top 4 of Europe in the same group for Euro qualification

[–] Red_Maple@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Canada -14 in one year, woof

[–] PM_ME_SOME_LUV@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

We’re too high

[–] KratosWasHere@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Don’t hate me for this. But Colombia 9th? Over Italy and Japan?

[–] HEELinKayfabe@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Scotland 23rd.

Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland kiss my deep fried arse, you bastards. I'll never forget being the only home nation sitting at home in 2016.

We are so back.

[–] WeatherAggressive530@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What dumbfuck made England, Italy, Ukraine, Northmacedonia and Malta play in the same group meanwhile Switzerland was by far the best team in its own group, but still worse than even Ukraine. That's simply unfair. I cannot see any other explanation than that the whole thing is rigged to benefit Switzerland.

[–] Shinsoku@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

While ELO rating seems more preferable to the FIFA WR, somehow the 1 year change looks volatile af imo.
