Go:bekli Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 The FIFA rankings as of August 4, 2004: 1 Brazil 849 2 France 809 3 Spain 790 4 Argentina 774 5 Czech Republic 762 6 Netherlands 747 7 England 732 8 Mexico 731 9 Italy 728 10 Turkey 719 10 USA 719 12 Portugal 714 13 Germany 712 14 Greece 710 15 Denmark 703 16 Cameroon 700 16 Republic of Ireland 700 ….. 31 Belgium 650 31 Senegal 650 Clearly, an injunction to never fall as low as Belgium or Senegal! We also observe that the US is in position #10-11. If anyone has not yet understood why Americans understand better soccer from the 0-5 Europeans (proudly outdistancing their 0-7 domestic opponents), he is invited to study the rankings until he does!

drakos13 Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 yeah Mexico is a great team with all there beating Nicaragua 2-0 etc... these rankings are s%$#!. What has england ever done. in the past 2 years they havent had impressive friendlies, not that great qualifying and..... its pointless to go on. greece comes off an 15 game unbeaten streak, then wins the european cup.... and we scrape past cameroon. the fact that the obvious european champion isnt even in the top 10- not just top 3 which is more apropriate, is gross. to hell with these rankings i saw all the rankings i need in the kallimarmaro.

chameleon65 Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Just noticed that our euro champs have fallen to 16th from 14th position. That was quick! Denmark and Rep.o/Ire have moved past us?! :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
