"And where is Heskey? LOL "

Unfortunately making millions in England. I just can't support sport anymore. The fact that this guy has about 8 times as many Caps as le Tissier shows something is wrong.

following the performances at World Cup 2010, FIFA has released their latest World Rankings. it's not a surprise to us, but despite their lack of affleticism, (all or majority) White teams dominate.

Spain are the top-ranked side, with their opponent in the World Cup final, the Netherlands, coming in at number two. (in my opinion, the still-overrated) Brazil fall to number three. Germany and Argentina both move up two spots, to number four and five respectively. semi-finalists Uruguay climb up ten spots to number six, while England somehow climb a spot to number seven (after playing like crap). Italy and France fall out of the Top 10 after dismal (and in France's case, embarassing) performances. Italy drop to number eleven, while France plummet to number twenty-one.

to the multi-culturalists delight, one African team cracks the Top 10, but it's ... er ... Egypt.

besides Brazil and France, Ghanaare the only other majority black team to crack the Top 25 ... at number 23. i'm sure Alexi Lalas-Vuvuzela is crying into his oft-bitten pillow.

New Zealand made the biggest move, climbing 24 places after going unbeaten in their three World Cup matches (now number 54). as an aside, i'm going to buy a NZ jersey ... they are called the All Whites.

1. Spain
2. Netherlands
3. Brazil
4. Germany
5. Argentina
6. Uruguay
7. England (this is a head-scratcher)
8. Portugal
9. Egypt (so is this, as they didn't even qualify for the World Cup)
10. Chile
11. Italy
12. Greece
13. (t) USA
13. (t) Serbia
15. Croatia
16. Paraguay
17. Russia
18. Switzerland
19. Slovenia
20. Australia
21. France (oh how the mighty have fallen!)
22. Norway
23. Ghana
24. Mexico
25. Ukraine

The Fifa rankings take into consideration a large period of time,not just the WC.It is a forumula; It is not a vote. That is why England and Egypt kept their positions.

i understand that, mate, but it still seems a bit off to me. it's like some of the players who are rated highly by the Castrol Index at the WC. it is supposedly a comprehensive formula, as well, butsome of the top-rated guys didn't play well at all in the tourney.

I guess if Mauer had a bad playoff series,but still had great stats for the regular season he would be rated highly still.

I don't know how they would rate a player by a formula,especially in soccer. I wonder if they have things like passes completed.

England had a great qualifying campaign where they won 9 out 10. France did poorly in qualifying,barely making it and then were knocked out without a win I think,so France dropped. Chile had 2 wins and 2 loses and were knocked out in the final 16 but jumped two spots. Egypt jumped 3 spots and didn't even qualify.


The Elo rankings are a little different than Fifa,although Fifa uses a modified version of Elo. The US is 25 in ELO ,but 13 in Fifa.Mexico is 11 in Elo and 24 in fifa.Slovenia 42 elo, 19 fifa.

Good posts Jimmy and Rebajlo

When I read posts like yours,I think you could easily write for the ESPN or the BBC websites and bring them to a much higher level.

When I compare what they have on their sites,2 of the biggest in the world with writers such as the black AA women on ESPN and PHil McNulty on the BBC, with both your comments,there is no comparison.

Europe - Thanks for the compliment, mate. Funnily enough, after my career as a heavy metal hero fell apartdue to severe damage to my vocal cords

I did intend to write for football magazines...but the influx of big money and blacks, with the concomitantly convenientuse of the game as a flagrant propaganda tool ("Kick Racism Out Of Football", et cetera) meant that I could never gain / maintain employment if I provided honest assessments ofevents on and (equally importantly)off the field."Political correctness"was squeezing the life out of football journalism -for example, You may recall the hysteria surrounding Peter Schmeichel's supposedly "racist"remarks made to Ian Wright during and afterUnited-Arsenal matches in 1996 and 1997. Therefore,I didn't even bother to seriously investigate the potential possibilities of entering the profession, as it would have been a complete waste of time and effort...

...as an aside, i'm going to buy a NZ jersey ... they are called the All Whites.

Jimmy - Whatever You do,never purchase an All Blacks jersey, mate

As for the FIFA rankings, they aren't worth the proverbial pinch. For instance, the likes of Egypt are in such a lofty position due to the rubbish African opposition they play - if theywere regularly coming up against European or South American teams, they'd be much further down the list as they would no longer accumulate points for beating finely-drilled powerhouses such as Benin and Djibouti.

Anyway, I'd like to take this opportunity to voice my appreciation of everyone's contributions to this monster 33-page thread - great stuff, lads

Certainly, as "Top 25" teams such as Egypt, Croatia, Russia, Ukraine, and Norway didn't even qualify for the World Cup Finals.

All of those squads that failed to qualify (accept for Egypt, of course) would have been great teams to support during the finals.

JimmyC, that line about Lalas' "oft-bitten" pillow was quite hilarious.

Joe Kowalski posted a pretty good opinion piece over at AmRen. i'll copy and paste it in-full, since he's a frequent Caste Footballwriter. hopefully he won't mind.

<H1>Unity Is Strength: Spain Wins the World Cup</H1>
Joe Kowalski, Special to AR News, July 13, 2010


The World Cup is easily the most popular sporting event on the planet and for the second time in a row a team comprised entirely of indigenous Europeans has come out on top. On Sunday, Spain proved itself the best team in the world by beating the Netherlands 1-0. The World Cup is held every four years. In 2006, Italy took home its fourth cup.


Not only were the championship teams from Spain and Italy all-white, they were, respectively, all-Spanish and all-Italian. Those not familiar with soccer might wonder why this is noteworthy. In fact, it is a huge blow to the anti-white forces that are changing the face of Europe.


Last month, I wrote an article for <CITE>Alternative Right</CITE> (available here) focusing on the racial makeup of the 32 teams from around the globe who qualified for this year's tournament. (There are regional quotas, otherwise the World Cup would be mainly a competition between European and South American teams.) Despite all the happy talk about multiculturalism and diversity, most of the planet is represented by teams that represent the demographics of their individual nations. African, Asian, and Eastern European squads were all racially uniform. The teams from Latin America tended to match their populations as a whole so that Uruguay and Argentina were mostly white, Mexico was mostly mestizo and Brazil mostly black and racially mixed with a few whites.


Western European teams, however, have been darkening for the last few decades. This is most obvious in the case of France. The French won their only World Cup in 1998 with a squad starting seven whites and four blacks. Now the team regularly starts seven or eight blacks. The under-21 team consists of 15 blacks and 5 whites. England, unfortunately, has been sliding down the same path as France. They started five or six blacks for most matches in the World Cup and their under-21 side is less than half white.


The French national soccer team no longer represents the French people and England seems to be on the same track. Even second-tier teams such as Switzerland started two blacks. Of course, only white nations are faced with this situation, as they are the only countries that let in masses of people of different races. Asians and Africans will probably never come close to winning a World Cup, but they will always be able to cheer for teams that look like them.


Just because a national team goes black, however, doesn't mean it can't go back. In the 1990s, the Dutch national squad was easily the "blackest" of the European teams and seemed to be getting worse by the year. But this year the Dutch usually started nine whites and two mulattoes. In their semifinal game they actually started no blacks at all. Few would have predicted this a few years ago but the Netherlands team actually looked more or less Dutchâ€"and they were rewarded with a second-place finish.


So how did the French squad fare? The team bombed out with a 0-2-1 record and couldn't even make the second round of the tournament. The squad was beset with squabbling that seemed to have racial undertones. After a black starter, Nicolas Anelka, was suspended by the white coach, Raymond Domenech, the players decided to protest by refusing to practice. The team took a vote that reportedly broke down along racial linesâ€"with most of the whites voting to continue practice.


Yoann Gourcuff is a true Frenchman and one of the most promising young French players but he inexplicably didn't start this year. The French soccer website ChezlesGirondins.com reported that the black players derisively referred to him as "la Nouvelle Star," and that Gourcuff almost came to blows with black player Patrice Evra after harassment at the hands of Evra. Though born in Senegal, Evra isâ€"quite fittinglyâ€"the captain of the French team.


In contrast to the French, Spain started a team of 11 Spaniards and took home the World Cupâ€"just as Italy did with 11 Italians in 2006. Perhaps the obvious lessons will not be lost on those who select the national teams of other European nations.

Transfers are being made in the English premier league. In the last week, ive read about 10 or so transfers to premier league clubs mainly from abroad (ie - france), and around 60% of these players have been black.

How predictable. Guess the world cup hasnt changed anything then. In fact, i predict that English football is going to get so black that it will soon catch up with france.

sorry for dooming post!

They are going crazy in England. Now they even have black people born in France who move to England as children.

Some interesting stats from the game:
Uruguay: total distance 131 401 meters/per match, 1374 sprints/per match, each player spent 8.6% time at high activity on the average. Top speed: Forlan 28.4 km/h
Ghana 126 387 meters, 1086 sprints, 7.7% time spent at high activity. Top speed: Inkoom 26.4 km/h

It is interesting to check real stats. After the game against South Korea, some people said that Uruguay players were "walkers". I was really curious, how they will do against Ghana, a team that showed probably the best fitness out of all African teams.

Another great post. I saw your statistics in the track/athletics forum, and so searched for your name. Really good, solid information. Thank you.

Germany is the new force to be reckoned with. Young exciting players.They will take Spain the next time they play. I loved watching them crush England and Argentina.They also beat caste favorite Ghana and crushed Australia. Germany will very soon be number 1 in the world.

how the referees treated the two biggest teams in the history of soccer: together they have 9 (or 7) world cups and 23 continental titles
but it's nothing when facing the teams FIFA rooted for: the african teams, on their continent

uruguay against ghana:
[video=youtube;NuK6TXdxEXY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuK6TXdxEXY[/video]

uruguay lost their glorious captain diego lugano during this match, injuried due to the brutality of the africans

and diego forlan was slightly injuried, so he could not finish the match against holland

the "foul" that gave the freekick on wich suarez did his infamous handball:
[video=youtube;wxeSLUGh18A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxeSLUGh18A[/video]

where is the foul?

brazil against ivory coast:

[video=youtube;o-5TuDhGTI4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-5TuDhGTI4[/video]

brazil lost elano blumer because of an aggression by an african
and he is maybe the only player that brazil couldn't replace

also kaka was sent off after this simulation
kaka is a player that is not a defensive player, he never commits fouls, he is known as being calm, a gentleman
and they give him a red card for nothing?
