These are the 50 most competitive teams in FIFA history, heavily weighted towards European and Sudaca teams due to the lesser continents not gitting gud until very recently.Will any of the historically good nations that are now dead like Czechs, Sweden, Uruguay, Hungary and Italy ever become good again?*Yugoslavia results attributed to Serbia, Soviet Union to Russia, Czechoslovakia to Czech Republic and West Germany to Germany
>>157053287Uruguay and Italy will eventually be decent again
>>157053287Don't like this formula. It should be>Wb6+: 5>Wb3-5: 4>Wb2: 3>Wb1: 2>Draw: 0>Lb1: -2>Lb2: -3>Lb3-5: -4>Lb6+: -5It's fucking ridiculous to be humiliated (losing by 6 or more goals) and getting 0 points. You should be punished for such an embarrassing display. Losing by any number of goals doesn't deserve a point at all.Edit: In fact I would keep my chad formula and change losing by 6+ to -10 that's how embarrassing it is to be raped that hard.
/sp/: an interesting, innovative thread? nooo I must post race bait posts at the queen of spain (QoS) greeting Black Spanish players
I wish >we weren't so arrogant in the early days and refused to enter because we felt it was 'beneath us'. If England had competed in 1924, 1928, 1930, 1934 and 1938 we could have statpadded against the amateur nations and probably won at least one or two extra WCs. Hell, even Scotland would have had a good chance.
>>1570532871954 was such a shame for Hungary and PuskasBy far the best National Team ever to not win a World Cup
>>157053352Uruguay has 3 million people and it's player development system is in shambles. It'll probably always be a top half CONMEBOL team but I don't think it'll have another run like 2010 in my lifetime.
>HistoryWho caresWhat matters is the present and anything else is cope
>>157053287Imagine saying dead countries and not listing England first.Try to win your continent's trophy first and then we can talk about a World Cup.
>>157053560Nah doesn't work, because it punishes teams who qualify (and lose) more than teams that aren't even good enough to qualify.
>>157053287Extremely arbitrary system but results are consistent with the history we knowRare switzerland high up, thoughI thought they got only good in the last few years
>>157053287is this just the WC?because Mexico has thei most losses in WC history and its ranked highthe whole list is pointless if mexico is that high because they spend the 4 years between WCs farming Honduras and Suriname before being humilliated at the WC like a clockwork
>>157055964counterpoint: argentina, brazil and urGAY do the same thing in CONMEBOL
>>157056009Bolivia in La Paz would beat COCACAF 100% of the timein any case, which is why I said, only WCs should be accounted forbecause just like CONMEBOL and CONCACAF, UEFA also has its Luxenburgs and Faroe Islandsso accounting goald differences outside WCs its just stupid
>>157055964I think it’s all competitive matches, so everything except friendlies. It needs to be weighted again for confederation strength and opponent strength
>>157056206>It needs to be weighted again for confederation strength and opponent strengththat already exists in eloratings.net
>>157053287DopeWhere did you get the data from, anon?
>>157055414England (whilst not great) don't have recent records anywhere near the five mentioned teams though. Finishing place at the last 3 WCs>CUM3rd England27th Sweden37th Uruguay39th CzechiaDNQ HungaryDNQ Italy>Qatar6th England20th UruguayDNQ CzechiaDNQ HungaryDNQ ItalyDNQ Sweden>Russia4th England5th Uruguay7th SwedenDNQ CzechiaDNQ HungaryDNQ Italy
>>157056218
>>157055964Only World Cup, otherwise you'd have the teams who regularly hammer India, Bangladesh and Brunei in early Asian qualifying right in the mix. Reaching the World Cup and losing is worth more than not qualifying at all, which is why narrow losses have some value to the tally. It's a measure of how 'competitive' the team is, rather than necessarily their success.
>>157053287>teams that play more have a higher goal difference wow thanks for that
>>157056472>Teams that succeed in qualifying and get better results score more pointsYes?
>>157056278The Euro, win the Euro.
>>157053287Why does slovakia not get czechoslovakia's results?
>>157053287Serbia is not the legal successor of Yugoslavia. They joined the UN as a new member.
