Last time we played Spain we beat them! We should be number one!

I've only ever been to Wembley once and I've only ever seen England play once and that was the game - something to tell the Grandkids at some point down the line (if I can still remember it by then)
 
i'll be honest, i don't even think england are the 4th best team in england, let alone the world. i doubt they'd get in the champions league. i think norwich would give them a game and a half...
 
They are lick arsing around us. They slag us off when they think we aren't listening but I bet they will all be at the Olympics. So they are going to have to be nice to us for a few weeks. We will drop to our rightful 10th by the end of August.
 
I think it's based on how many times the goalkeeper can hit the centre forward with the ball, ignoring all other players on the pitch.
or getting extra places for playing a previously unknown system, the FLAT BACK 9!
or having the ugliest player in your team................... I'll leave you to fill that in!
or continually kicking the ball out for a throw in,
or being the team that touched the ball the least amount of times in open play,
or having a player who ran 23 miles during a game without touching the ball once, (see ugliest player for clue)

England's record over the last 4 years (which is what the rankings are based on) is actually pretty good. I believe Capello has the best record of any England manager ever. For more on how the rankings are arrived at see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFA_World_Rankings Needless to say, beauty or excitement are not among the criteria used!
