What is the points system?

Without the proper formula this information is complete garbage. I imagine you did not just make this up but proof of that would be nice.

Useless thread without the point systems algorithm.

doing donut's job for him.

The rankings are calculated by including results from national league matches, continental and intercontinental competitions and the most important national cup competition, ignoring results before the last 16 phase.

Results are awarded points depending on the level of competition. A draw in a national league game is worth two points and a win is four.
Champions League draws and wins are worth seven and 14 respectively, while Club World Cup semi-finals are worth the same.
A win in the Club World Cup final is worth 21 points - which explains how high up Corinthians are.

Article is really bad, they have a picture of ronaldo on fifa 13 in it .

You think that's from FIFA?

Not sure what the biggest facepalm in this thread is

The list itself, NZG thinking that is a picture from FIFA 13 or Danny actually correcting somebody

Me correcting someone deserves a facepalm?

That makes so much sense!

well it is more a facepalm moment because you are one of the most unintelligent members on the forum and you are correcting somebody of decent intelligence

If I was trying hard to be cool, I'd insult you because people don't like you. Thus making myself 'cool' in the eyes of other forum members

But considering I am not insulting you, this surely proves I am not trying to be 'cool'

Well you're either trying to be cool, or you're really fucking sad. Take your pick.
