Re: IFHHS: All-Time Club World Ranking It's from from January 1st, 1991 to present. You are right, they shouldn't call it "all-time".

Yeah, that is pretty gay, what do they decide it on? I bet it's how many pies people buy at half time
I am not a big fan of this type of rankings, since it is virtually impossible to measure teams from different leaagues in a fair and resonable way. But usually, I do think using direct matches is the best way to determine who is better, obviously it is not a perfect method, but it's the best thing available. That's why I would like to see a better developed FIFA Club World Cup.
Those rankings are a joke. Funny how South American teams are there while teams that are in second place in the second best league in the world aren't *cough* Real Madrid *cough*. Also Barcelona at third? Have they watched them play?

Even though Real Madrid sucks now, I think we can all agree that they can beat teams like Dinamo Kyiv, São Paulo, or Shakhtyor Donetsk. These rankings suck.
LOL at the rankings an Argentinean club in the top 5? Now that is funny and I know for a fact Dinamo Kyiv isn't 7th in the World they are more like 50-60 range.
