So the new FIFA rankings released yesterday have the Netherlands at number 1. It's great to see them there - pound for pound, there's no doubt that they are the greatest footballing nation in the world - but they haven't actually won an international match since March. Not that it should be impossible to improve your ranking without playing. It can happen in my rankings too, if those around you are losing matches. But the Dutch have amassed 54 ranking points in the last month, despite not playing a match since June and, once again, not winning a match since March. Ludicrous.
