England behind Russia, yeah, dream on, just wait till South Africa 2010, then we will see who is better.

How did England do in the last Euro? How did Russia do? I guess that's the difference



and what does that say about you? your even lower down than us

It says that we don't play the Euro, that Maradona sucks as coach, that Messi sucks as player for his country, that....bah, fuck, I don't care, the Selección sucks anyways, not gonna defend it


It reminds me Japan is going to play the next copa america xD, anyway, about Messi, I was watching foxaports and an argentinian journalist said Kaka was the best player in the world and Alexis Sanchez was better than Messi,....., playing for the national team.

Colo Colo 4-0 Easter Island selection(Rapa nui)

Good for the guys in easter island, its the first pro football match that its played there it should help football to be more popular there and hopefully we could get players from there since they are strong and fast guys, the same for rugby.

Oh the new FIFA ranking came out, I dont trust this ranking very much, but its interesting anyways.

The top 10 is:
1. Brazil
2. Spain
3. Netherlands
4.Germany
5. Italy
6. Russia
7. England
8. Argentina
9. France
10. Croatia

The south american positions after that would be Paraguay(20), Uruguay(21), Chile(26), Ecuador(36), Colombia(45), Venezuela(54), Bolivia(63), Peru(89).

Mexico is 30 and the USA is 12. http://es.fifa.com/worldfootball/ranking/lastranking/gender=m/fullranking.html

The FIFA ranking is pretty crap since you actually gain points for losing to a good team, and the good team would lose points even when beating a crappy team.  I like this ranking better:

That said, the Elo ratings put England at 4th, which is ridiculous.  I think FIFA ranks England and Russia too high.

England will win, i wont stop saying this till it happens

Liverpool to sign Aquilani from Roma for £20m

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/l/liverpool/8186102.stm

that should safely stop Liverpool fans criticising our transfer dealings now.
