Everton are 24th in the UEFA club rankings

Chimpy Glassman · July 5, 2012

Higher than Bayer Leverkusen, Athletic Bilbao, Roma, Lazio, Dynamo Kiev and Liverpool.

Was going to post link but I'm not allowed.

Does that mean we're boss again?
Should be on the cusp of Champions League status.
At the very least Europa.

that's impossible we haven't been in europe for a few years and thats how the co efficients are worked out if i'm not mistaken.

Probably the same ranking methodology that sees England as 4th best team in the world.

Ranking systems are always flawed, England are apparently the 4th best footballing nation in the world FFS

Pretty big flaw.

Yes, but on ability it is quite clear that they are not the 4th best team in Europe, let alone the world!

It is indeed The Skunks.

Love that for all the money they have spent - the Sh*te are still Sh*ite.
Lets hope Buck Rodgers perpetuates the downward spiral nosedive.

But football is a results based game. u can play like swansea all day long... u dont get no extra points playing nice football and getting beat 2-0

It's not about the style of play, Stoke don't play the best football but you could argue that they are the 10th or 11th best side in the premier league.

England didn't even make it past the quarter finals, in theory there should be at least 4 european teams that are above them in the rankings just on the back of that.
