Looking at CAF's top 15...
Tunisia, Guinea, Morocco, Cape Verde and Uganda are climbing.
Cape Verde jumped up 47 places!
Why did they tumble in the first place?
CIV is steady with no changes while the rest tumbled.
Naija dropped by 6 positions.
If they had avoided the WC qualifiers altogether they would have climbed instead.
Ghanaweb and an Italian news source published Muntari's wahala.
As for rankings, where were you when Naija was climbing up in rankings without kicking a ball, while AFCON participants were dropping?
Now that Naija is active again, they like water, are finding out their true level.

The problem is that Nigeria usually wait to be invited,once we've qualified they'll announce some friendlies and after the World Cup Draw nations with African teams in their groups will ask to play Nigeria but Nigeria probably won't try to organise any friendliest with a top nation themselves!truetalk wrote:We should not care too much as long as we are winning the matches we are meant to win and we qualify for the WC.bret- hart wrote:pajimoh wrote:When your ranking is high you can only improve by playing and beating higher ranking teams.

FIFA needs to come up with a better system. The European teams have an unfair advantage
When qualification is secured by God's grace and we want to boost our ego (while preparing for the 'Oyinbos' we will face in Russia), we can schedule friendlies against Iceland (22), Northern Ireland (20), Mexica (14), Wales (13, Peru (12) and Poland (6).
That should send us shooting up the rankings quickly.

Those FIFA rankings are a joke. Did you see what they did to our country?

You should start picking your World Cup group teams too....
