World Cup Standings

Just wondering, if Costa Rica beat England in their last game of the group, is there a possibility that England could drop below Scotland in the World rankings?

[Alex1875]

I'm pretty sure Scotland's draw with Nigeria will see us drop a couple of places.

Scotland have already dropped five places to 27th after the daw with Nigeria.

No, none.

[erin go bragh]

Were 27th on 790 pts . They are 10th on 1090 pts .
So id say not a chance of us going above them just now .

That's why I said the rankings are a joke, everyone knows that Costa Rica are a better team than Scotland.

And everyone knows Uruguay are light years ahead of England.

:agree: Similar to England being vastly superior to Scotland.

Too true..A population of only 4 Million Uruguay :cb

We will see about this in November then ;)

[mmmmhibby]

On paper England are a better team collectively tha Scotland. However, under Strachan the progress that has been made has been astonishing really. Also having the feelgood factor amongst Scotlands squad has defo improved the team no end. We are now a hard team to beat, refreshing to say the least.

It's just like the lottery, you have to be in it to win it and Scotland never have a ticket :greengrin

We used to have Golden Balls instead of bonus balls.

:hilarious

England have as much chance of winning the world cup as Iran :greengrin


I listened to Glen Hoddle on Saturday and they just never ever get it!..He's bigging England up for the Euros in 2 years time, What the heck do these pundits see in England that no one else sees?

England wont and never have been a threat at the WC for many many years, Your just not that good.

We're a hard team to beat when the pressure is off and there's nothing to play for.

Hopefully we'll still show some improvement when 3 points are at stake.

I'm not sure Germany will find us too hard to beat in September.

It's hilarious how blinkered they are. Adrain Childs saying Argentina had "England disease" meaning the amount of chances they missed. What game was he watching? I can only remember a couple. England are a average team at that level.

I think England will see the World Cup campaign as a success if they match or better Scotland's points.
