Alternate, true FIFA world rankings.

Gives a much better idea of true rankings, as it removes the population advantage that the bigger countries have.

Granted, you need money to buy a football, but, I don't think that education and infrastructure are particularly advantageous when comparing footballing nations.
Still, if you think that they have a level of importance, just compare like for like nations.
Make a comparision of European nations separately from African nations for example.

Very interesting!!! Puts the performances of countries like Czech, Holland, Portugal and Urugay in the past into a other perspective!!
