But how did they get these numbers? what does “757″ mean?

Except Parma have had some real great talent (Gila before he learned that vanishing trick, among many others) that they’ve sold off. I wouldn’t rank them 16th, but they definitely aren’t that bad.

Chris, you can’t really fault the IFFHS for “not having existed” before 1991… :] (technically they were created in 1984, it’s their “Club World Ranking” that was started in ‘91).

In the end though, the ranking is what it is: best teams of the past two decades. Not beyond. The fact they are calling it an “All-Time” ranking just serves as further proof of the IFFHS’s desperate attempts at being recognized.

Interesting to note that compared to last year, the top 3 clubs haven’t changed (Juve lost one spot to Man Utd… the UCL/EPL thing probably helped).

That’s because 7 Ligue 1 titles equal roughly .5 EPL titles, and 2 > .5

Maybe in 28 years.

What a joke. Chelsea(2 league titles) in 10th and Lyon(7 in the last 7 years) not in the top 20.

I’d add that judging by the IFFHS website (www.iffhs.de), it’s also safe to say that Netscape Navigator 3.0 is the best browser of all time.
