            I hope the Korean team sees these rankings and gets pissed and runs the tables in the AFC CUP. There is another big transfer getting set for Cho Hyung Young to move over to Europe but I read that he has military dutys that might be stopping him from making the move!

                            Exactly...they have no experience on the 'international' level - Africa Cup of Nations is a joke. Don't get me wrong though I do like the Egyptian team to an extent, made some good green with them in the last tourney.

                                hmmm.. i really think the discussion so far on this thread will mean nothing...

                                the ranking on the page is released by FIFA on May 2010, before the world cup, so it make sense with Egypt, Gabon or any other "small" football nation get high ranking. The next ranking update will be released on 11 August 2010. Am I right? Or is there really something wrong with this ranking system by FIFA?

                                      Those ratings are always weird remember US was 6th before the last World Cup in 2006.

                                        Don't understand why UEFA doesn't have at least 16 bids for the World Cup.

                                        By far the best region.

                                                  this ranking means nothing and no serious fan, football bettor or specialist should take them seriously

                                                          Uruguay 6th. Kinda like that one I think they deserve to crack the Top 5. But ofcourse they will fail to add to thier WC campaign in the years to come seeing them fall to the mid teens/20s. Sucks because Ive been a Uruguay fan since 2002 lmao. US played Uruguay in a Friendly at RFK and I was at the game. I remember the Uruguayans singing and loving the game. Me being Hispanic I could only admire their people and team and COLORS.

                                                            FIFA rankings are irrelevant. Whoever follows then and makes predictions based on them is in idiot.
