1 Brazil
2 France
3 Spain
4 Argentina
5 Mexico
6 England
7 Netherlands
8 Turkey
9 Czech Republic
9 Germany
11 United States
12 Italy
13 Cameroon
14 Ireland Republic
14 Denmark
16 Belgium
17 Portugal
18 Sweden
19 Costa Rica
20 Romania

53 Scotland

53 Wales

111 Northern Ireland



England up to 6th, then? Well, I suppose the teams around them have been playing crap, while they've not lost in ages now. Republic of Ireland have stayed right where they were before, in 14th place. Scotland moved up from 59th to 53rd, while Wales fell from 52nd to join Scotland. Northern Ireland moved up one position from 112, but still look far too far down the list.

Strange to see Italy so low in the ranks, and Costa Rica so high. Colombia have also dropped into the mid-20s despite at this time last year being 4th. Czech Republic are climbing at an alarming rate as well, and sit 8th.

Ah well, that's all.

A few years ago the rankings used to take friendly matches into account and Mexico played ALOT of them... they remain in the top 5 mainly due to good form in world cup qualifiers and copa america matches but cannot be expected to maintain that position for too much longer.

Czech Republic were ranked as high as 3rd a few years ago... theyre not a bad team at all and one that always seems to creep into the latter stages of tournaments un-noticed then get beaten and no-one bats an eyelid throughout the whole process.

Costa Rica are also in the same situation of Mexico... both profit from weak world cup qualifying groups and equally poor localised tournaments against the likes of the mighty Belize, Aruba et al.

Italy is the major shock, 12th place... hmm we'll see where they are after they reach at least the semi-final stage of the European Champs next summer.

N'ireland... well 111th is a little high i thought, considering they havnt scored in something like 9 matches? ok maybe a slight exageration but they havnt beaten anyone for donkeys now or so it seems.

Im surprised Netherlands are 7th, they've been pretty pis poor in the last couple of years and Italy and Portugal should definatly be higher than their current rankings.

These ranks are becoming rather strange, with Mexico still in the top 5.

It's good to see England above the Turks and Germans.
