I think summer footie when started proper next season will surely continue the improvement. We probably good for a couple more placing increases in the ranking to get to close to top 30 but will have move on another level to make the jump into that top 30.

this would prob be interesting if ranking by maybe GDP or even by number of soccer players in each country... but here the UEFA rankings are... in order of country population

Points to a few underachievers, and a few interesting overachievers!
