to be honest this is the first time i belive in this s**t ranking. http://www.fifa.com/en/mens/statistics/index/0,2548,All-Aug-2006,00.html
how can you guys say that 52 is what w deserve? that syria game was wtih iran B. no one can say we were full strength, and thats purely down to the coach. However putting bosnia ahed of us when we beat thm 5-2 not that long ago? we drwe croatia too, would have beaten them if it wasnt for stupid mirzapour you guys need to get you heads checked
update* Iran is 45. Korea REP is 52.... I say SK can beat anybody from 52 down to 20. Dont waste ur time getting angry at the fifa rankings, everyone knows its bull.
But Syria didn't have their main team either. Not only that but they also had coach problems. True we didnt have hashemian or karimi but still..it was embarassing. Khatabi or whatever needed to be benched that game...x.x
I did'nt mean we should be higher or lower in the ranking. I just wanted to know what they've changed ? Tying Syria's B team was quite lame.
No offense to anyone but tying against Syria really did justify the 52 ranking. We played and really it feels like we lost.
England lost to Northern Ireland. One bad game doesn't justify rankings. Wait for the rest before judging.
Meh, well said. Iran's performance hasn't been great these past months anyway though. Then again the rankings don't really mean much, as stated we almost bear Croatia and they're lower on the rankings. (lower as in has a lower number.)
