Poland at 31 is criminal. With our current form we should be way lower.

[–] leoKantSartre@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Spongy team on top noice

[–] johnwickyeah1@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The fact that Belgium is fourth in front of Croatia, Spain, and Italy proves this ranking is nonsense.

[–] Frodo_max@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

maybe those teams should stop losing games in qualifying, that's really the only way belgium does it

[–] Specialist-Cycle9313@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Perfect top 3, but the rest of the list is awful.

[–] ratonbox@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It's not a subjective list, it's just a rating based on the latest results from the teams. It's a mathematical formula, not something to be taken as a definitive ranking.

Uruguay went from rank 15 to rank 11 by beating brazil and argentina

[–] ancara_messi@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

They're quite easily a top 5 nation right now tbh

[–] SpookyHideaway@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

What a huge overreaction

[–] unArgentino@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (3 children)

They should be around the top 5 IMO.

[–] Nordie27@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

A bit much considering Bielsa has only been there a short period, before that Uruguay hadn't been good in years

They went out in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup. Their ranking isn’t that crazy.

They are 7th on the Elo rankings

[–] MowMyLawn69@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (3 children)

It still surprises me how hard Germany have fallen off over the previous 5 years

[–] Demonidze@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

for me its Belgium.. the team have no business to be top10 . let alone top4...

[–] RobCoPKC@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The DFB is symbolic of many things that go wrong in Germany, for example in politics. Corrupt, incompetent and detached from the rest of society.

"Die Mannschaft" tells you everything you need to know.

Taking P6 from Portugal.

Love to see it

[–] King146@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah we deserved to go down since we lost and drew so many games in 2023 lmao

[–] King-Key@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Winning against Lichensteinbourg counts as 0.001 points

[–] FoldingBuck@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

How did portugal go down? Literally won every single game this year.

[–] Complex_Race9966@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

They again got the esiest group. Its not hard to beat farmers and blacksmiths from lihtenstein.

[–] mikguimas@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Portugal: won all games from EU qualifiers, 2goals conceded, CR7 2nd best scorer

FIFA: nah take -1 place

Sad to say but Italy too high rn

[–] randomgamer305@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I know FIFA rankings don't mean much, or at least people shouldn't think too much of them. But they're fun to look at for some reason

Death, taxes, and Belgium in the top 5

[–] KingKFCc@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Why did Portugal drop? Why isn't Uruguay top 10 Portugal 10/10 Uruguay beat Argentina and Brazil

[–] Ouioui29@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Portugal won every single Euro Qualifier game, and they drop a level?

[–] EnDubb@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The +/- is only relative to last month's ranking, they dropped a level based on only beating Iceland and Liechtenstein since the last rankings update. Netherlands got more points for beating Ireland and Gibraltar.

[–] Jelmerdts@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

All these people who dont know how rankings work. Smh
