England are now ranked 15th in the fifa rankings and are 1 place above scotland! No this-respect ment to scotland in anyway but the difference in the quality between the english and scotish players is massive. If i was an england international I'd be ashamed off myself

That is madness, they have changed so much since the last one. The Euros seems to have accounted for a lot.

What I don't get is how they can release these rankings when some teams haven't even played since the last time it was released.

If that was the case, they would never be released as some team on list wouldnt have played in the last month. |

It might be better if they didn't release them.

they keep doin it so that they can proove what a stupid and unbalanced system it is, it dose however proove that FIFA ARE effin useless and realy havnt got a clue about how to build a fair system that takes in all possibles, they are clearly desperate to proove they are earning there wages.....and at the end of the day do we really care whos in what possition,when theyve already decided countrys like ENGLAND will never get any benefit of there biast membership |

It's all based on performances particularly who you beat. Spain beat Russia, Germany etc and end up on top. Holland had 3 big wins with two against former high rollers, France and Italy. They obviously jump up a lot. England have played no games in June so we could only slip in the world rankings. |
