Poland at 31 is criminal. With our current form we should be way lower.
Croatia can win the wc and still remain no. 10 nd Belgium can get knocked by Qatar and become top 2
Somebody please tell me the last time Belgium made any waves at any tournament. Theyre trash.
They sure win a lot of games for a team that is trash
Someone has no clue how the ranking works
It still surprises me how hard Germany have fallen off over the previous 5 years
I was about to say the same thing, bizarre how far Germany have fallen
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.
for me its Belgium… the team have no business to be top10 . let alone top4…
Perfect top 3, but the rest of the list is awful.
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
They should be around the top 5 IMO.
A bit much considering Bielsa has only been there a short period, before that Uruguay hadn’t been good in years
We had a problematic transition between generations. Suárez, Cavani and Godín were far from their peak by 2020. And Valverde, Bentancur, Ugarte, and Araujo were still green.
I always liked Bielsa, but the raw material and base level of every football team are set by the quality of the players.
Position by position, this is the best generation of Uruguayan players at the very least since 1990.
They went out in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup. Their ranking isn’t that crazy.
Diego Alonso
They are 7th on the Elo rankings
They’re quite easily a top 5 nation right now tbh
What a huge overreaction
They didn’t look that in Qatar tbf.
Not like we had Bielsa back then
HERE WE GO BOYS
