Subject: [NT]World Cup Qualifiers

can say quiet, I do not think Honduras is a q-weight opponent for Belgium

The selection of Belgium is very strong, I think it will be a very interesting game, but I think that what will make a difference in this game and tactics, and the shapes of the players! :)

no chances for you against Belgium, they will win it at least by class

The selection of Belgium is the 3rd best in the world of Sokka, to Honduras is only the 72nd best, there is no comparison of the two selections, the most "alelocura" is a great maneger in tactics, I think a miracle who does not know it not tied with the selection of Belgium!

1 Polska 3353.54
2 talia 3257.43
3 België 3187.67

Hey Captain Obvious :)

it's actually not that obvious to be called the nr 3 of the world while being the nr 11 in number of users.

But it is obvious to be called the nr 3 of the world when you are nr 3 of the world.

Dont think there is much of a difference in the top ~16-32 teams, they are all around the same level and can beat anyone, so i dont think being 3rd in rankings really say much, obviously a team like Danmark in 31st place can beat Belgium for example..

But if Ghana will beat Belgium than Latvija will beat the Netherlands 5:0 in the return match...
mmm... for some reason it wont happen...
;-)

Surely this will never happen, the selection of Ghana to win the selection of Belgium only if a Sub_18, oh yes you can win!

More like the guys said, today the selections are very similar relations to coaches and cast several maneger that is longer in the game, is doing a fine job with the players, not counting the new users coming into the game with intended to help!

True, ranking is based on the performance of previous coaches.. e.g. if they lost their motivation after WC and lost most of the friendlies the ranking could've easily dropped 15-20 levels. For instance I raised Suomi from 27th to 9th in two seasons basically by just competing stronger opponents in friendlies. Is that the right place for us, I don't know. But at least it isn't 27th.

What I'm trying to say, ranking is just a number. Every team in top-30 is competitive to beat anyone in a good day. But Ghana beating Belgium... well that's a different story. :)

I raised Israel's rank from 30 to 10, beat that :P

and I think you were 11, before elections end (I remember you were always just behind me :)) )

Nope, I passed you by beating Spain! ;)

I 'just' drew with Polska... ^_^

with Polska Z ;p

Details, details :))

True, the rankings are tight and some managers dont care much about it as long as they are in the top 32 teams (to be in the first 2 pots), which in my eyes its quite understandable, i think top teams can give their young players minutes in friendlies and maintain their strong squads for long term this way, this rankings dosnt mean much, most important thing is to be in this top 32 places, when you are there than your place in the WC is sure for lets say 90%, than in the WC you need luck in the draws (and matches) and every one of the teams that make it to the WC can actually win it, we saw Slovakia in the last WC, i guess no one expected them to make it that far..

p.s
Than we took some "important" ranking points from you last WCQ.. at least we did something..
;-)

p.p.s
In my eyes your NT is a top ~10 in the game..
