The International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) regularly updates a club world ranking throughout the season, using a complex study of statistics.

These include the results of 12 months of continental and intercontinental competitions, domestic league matches, as well as other calculations.


It's pretty dodgy, as usual, but anyhows, here's the list:

1. (1.) Manchester United FC England
2. (4.) Glasgow Rangers FC Scotland
3. (2.) Chelsea FC London England
4. (3.) FC Bayern Munich Germany
5. (5.) FC Barcelona Spain
6. (6.) AS Roma Italy
7. (7.) Liverpool FC England
8. (8.) Arsenal FC London England
9. (9.) CA Boca Juniors Argentina
10. (10.) FC Inter Italy
11. (11.) São Paulo FC Brazil
12. (13.) AC Fiorentina Florence Italy
13. (19.) Fluminense FC Brazil
13 (14.) Olympique Lyonnais France
15. (15.) AC Milan Italy
16. (21.) Fenerbahçe SK İstanbul Turkey
17. (17.) Getafe FC Spain
18. (18.) Arsenal FC Sarandí Argentina
18. (14.) SV Hamburg Germany

Yeah a joke of a list to be honest.
Even when the lists look quite accurate I never trust
them but with Rangers in second place I have to
wonder how the **** they come up with those results
and what the criteria are. Not to be taken seriously at all lol.

complete rubbish! those scummy ******* deserve no place on a list of apparent prestige and should be banned from European football!

Surely when they were coming up with this list and found rangers on it in SECOND they must have thought 'we must have done something wrong here' the different leagues should have different weightings like the European golden boot has, Scottish football and Uefa cup reeks of second rate!

Rangers were close to the quadruple last season. They ended up as runners-up in the Scottish Premier League and UEFA Cup but won the Scottish FA Cup and League Cup.

Chelsea were close to a treble last season and ended up being runners-up in the league, League Cup and Champions League.

I think I see the logic in the list-makers reasoning but I think it is flawed.
