Fifa rankings don't tell the truth, so....

Iceland--97th---They broke the top hundred. Anyone have any idea of what the ICELAND NT jersey looks like? And, where can i get one?

That´s the logo of the FA from Iceland:

Their home shiirt is blue and away is white,
but i only found a picture of the EC 2004 quali ones:

But where to get one, don´t know, probably at the Iceland FA ksi (http://www.ksi.is/).

Thanks--:) Wotan(son) (I wanna become an Icelander--I read their citizenship rules---have some literature from the Iceland Embassy--it's so difficult--UNLESS--you're a citizen of one of the other "Nordic" countries (Norway-Sweden, Finland-Denmark)---THEN---it's a lot easier. Interesting---eh, Arthur d?:rolleyes:

Yes hello? Not sure I understand what you mean. Solidarity among the branches of Yggdrasil? Common fight against Loki and his mistletoes? :D

I am also very impressed with Iceland. A country of sportsmen, alcoholics, and a musician.

how do you rank the current national teams in the world on current form, NOT historically... here is my take on this, remember, CURRENT FORM!


Current form? Then I don't know why a couple of posters in this thread have mentioned Argentina as being in the top 3. They've lost their last couple of games against Croatia and England for starters. Good attack but their defence is decidedly shakey

1. Brazil
2. Italy
3. Holland
4. Portugal
5. England
6. Czech Republic
7. Argentina
8. Croatia
9. Serbia
10. France
11. Germany
12. Mexico
13. Sweden
14. Spain
15. Denmark

very easy to explain why germany stand so deep.

Germany plays the European Championship and the Europian Qualifying and the USA plays the Northamerican Championsship and the Northamerican Qualifying.

so lets take a look at the European Teams:
Germany
England
Italy
France
Spain
Holland
Portugal
Czech
and Teams like Ukraine, S&M, Scottland, Sweden, Denmark and so on.

in Northamerica:
USA
Mexico
uhm.. Hawaii?
costa rica?
and.. uhm..uhm..


So one more thing is. Germany did not played the Qualifiying and without the Qualifying you can make no points ;)

I am sorry to hear that Argentina have just been eaten by a giant mutant goat.

1. Brazil
2. France

I mostly agree with this, but I would place Portugal at 9, move Croatia below Czech Republic, Turkey below Switzerland and Serbia, Ukraine below Sweden, and Mexico DEFINETLY below United States.

Argentina are a team which are over ranked, if you ask me. They have never performed good in the world cup since 1990. Add that to the fact that they have being trounced by Brazil 4-1, lost to England, and lost to Croatia at home. Still they consider themselves as the second best, if not the best team in the world at the moment.

Well, all teams had bad results. England lost to Northern Ireland and was thrashed by Denmark. Still, I would put them into the top 5 for sure. I can't really rank the teams in order, but I could make pots:

Pot 1: Brazil
Pot 2: Italy, England, Holland, Argentina.
Pot 3: Portugal, Czech Rep, Spain, Sweden, Croatia.
Pot 4: Germany, Serbia, Mexico, USA, Ukraine, France.
Pot 5: Switzerland, Paraguay, Turkey, Ireland (should be higher but minus points for not qualifying), Denmark, Poland.

I can't rank the African teams as I haven't seen them play and the qualification seems to have given completely different results from the African Cup so they seem a bit unreliable. Maybe Ivory Coast in pot 4, but probably 5?
