Well if we ever needed proof that the whole ranking system is a rubishing of fact England have got to fourth in the World rankings and Italy have slipped to 5th :confused: Then again anything that Sepp Blatter is connected to is a mockery, a mistruth and not worth being written on used bog paper :mad:

Sepp Blatter is an absolute waste of space. He just sits around watching football and makes up pointless rules in an effort to make the public think his job is actually worthwhile. He always seems to have a bee in his bonnet about the English as well.

As for the list, in a Championship, England would get beaten by every team below them on that top ten.
 
lol yeah ... those names below england are real tough competition... hey what country with their golden generation and top class manager couldnt score a goal against a 10 man england? and which country just got their arses kicked by northern ireland... lol
 
We're on the march....

Get out. Now. :p
Glad to see scotland and northern ireland climbing. I'd rather cheer on them than england at the minute, at least they dont walk on mockery teams (except faroe islands) and give big teams a good fight, so every game's got some interest

IMO England has a better squad than most teams in that top 10

the only problem is they dont play like it
 
Wow even though it`s BS and England don`t deserve to be in the top 10 it`s nice to see that not EVERYONE outside of England hates us ! ;)
 
Probably the most realistic the top10 has ever been, well done FIFA. There's no longer any mickey mouse outfits there, and England's good form of late (beating the european champions 4-0 and claiming 6pts in qualifiers) compares favourably with that of Italy (only 1pt at home to Lithuania from their 2 matches).
