Indeed, an argument supported by the fact that Spain's position didn't improve one bit. We're coming Senor's.

We beat the winners in a friendly prior to the tournament and drew with the runners up in the tournament (albeit losing on penalties). That should merit some rise in the rankings.

Our European Campaign was pretty much W2 D2 L0 in open play which is better than most teams.

Yes. And you higher the rank of your opponents, the more points you get for a draw/win.

What a summer.

All those golds, Number one cricket team in the world (well at the moment) and moving up the rankings at Football.

Invincible.

Uruguay are 4th. Is that ridiculous? Because I'd bet you my home that if we played them 10 times, we'd beat them more than they'd beat us (by quite a margin)

Uruguay are a class above us right now, just look at their strikers... we'd lose 7 out of 10 their best team vs ours. As for us being up to third in the rankings, nobody does comedy better than UEFA

We (well, TeamGB) beat them in the Olympics? Granted it was a restricted side but still had Suarez and Cavani up top. Didn't exactly overwhelm a team consisting of Sam Tomkins did it?

Suarez or Rooney? Cavani had a couple of good seasons in Italy.

They're a fan boys wet dream, but their usual opposition is feckin' shite. Even Brazil and Argentina would get dicked about in the Euro's.

Uruguay are THE most overrated nation in the world.

Who rates England?

I haven't heard anybody claim England were a decent team since.... well, England last were a decent team (World Cup qualifying 2010).
