Says it all in the title.
I don\'t understand anything.
I have a feeling that they just put in points randomly.

im not sure but i think it takes to in account results from recognised matched from the last 4 years and they are "weighted" with more recent matches and more significant matches (e.g. world cup QF,semis, final etc) being given more significance.

But theyre crap

England number 5? You're having a laugh

To be honest I don't understand it too well.
Cuz like the U.S is ranked so high cuz they used to dominate in Concacaf.But the thing is, CONCACAF has mostly weak teams.
I don't think people take the rankings that seriously though.
