It's also difficult to book friendlies as there are calculations for beating high ranked teams in high ranking confederations so who wants to play a lower ranked team for little reward?

Canada got 331.5 points for beating Curacao last week

3 points for a win

1 point for a friendly

200-70 (Curacao's ranking is 70)

playing French Guyana didn't count

Canada got 443.7 points for the draw against Costa Rica last night.

I'm aware of how they are calculated.

I don't see why UEFA couldn't have it's own.

Yoiu won't convince me or anyone that Switzerland or Poland are the 5th and 6th best teams in the word or 3rd and 4th best in Europe.
