existence since 1991 but the majority of English met him in 2007. For some, the news was like a chill, others as a joke and for others, a false reason for vain pride: The IFFHS Sevilla FC had named as the best team in 2006 How, if I had not even won the league or Champions?
The following year the chill is not so, the joke seems a ridiculous joke of vain pride and continued to grow: The IFFHS named to Sevilla FC, the best team of 2007 " Again? But if you still do not earn or league or Champions ...! This no one can understand.
Those who suffer from curiosity we started then to find the criteria used by the International Federation of Football History and Statistics. Once we found it was not a simple roll of the dice we take the hands to the head to ensure that this valued institution in the same way the victories the same if it occurred on the third day against a rival league lower than in the penultimate against a candidate for the title, wins in UEFA were comparable to those of Champions, the title of best team in Europe was not the Champions, but Super ... Up a lover of statistics as a server felt sick to contemplate such an injustice: Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwho won league and Champions in 2006, left behind Sevilla who had been 5 th in league and won the UEFA against teams spat upon by the highest tournament.
common sense dictates football fan that wins, more than symbolic when it comes to rivalries, they have no immediate value, but Mediate: The victories in a links are only useful if you can win the league, or climbing in the rankings, wins in a knockout competition with the ultimate aim of achieving the title game, get mediocre titles in a season is better than no win in a brilliant season. But not for these gentlemen.
is why long ago, conceived the way, at least in Europe, to determine with more fairness and sense the title of best team in the continent, forgetting wins, draws and losses and focusing on the most important titles, and qualifying rounds.
BEGINNING FROM BELOW: THE 24 WORST
Statistics is simplified and this always leads to inaccuracy. But as mentioned in the opening article of this blog, provide more a statistical function whose variance assume that a linear or quadratic function whose factors are not accurate. That is why this analysis is to be limited to the 72 teams that compete each year the two European club competitions.
In that sense we have it pretty easy. The current format of the Europa League set, after many rounds previous 12 groups of 4 teams each. It is therefore easy to establish that the 12 worst teams in the 72 to participate in both competitions are the 4 th finishers in each group, and the next 12 would be 3 of each group. Common sense agree, because among the 24 teams can not have, since the classification criteria, none of the 2 front runners of the strongest leagues or any medium champions.
Wrap For further propose:
· In the 12 who have finished 4 th in the group stage of Europe League à 1 pt.
· In the 12 who have finished 3rd in the group stage à Europa League 2 pts.
THE MIDDLE 32
If we eliminated these groups are the worst Europa League and that those who contest the second round of Champions are the best , what remains is that the middle class of this set of equipment are those that compete in the playoffs the Europa League title, and among which we find little league champions who failed the previous Champions League teams the top half of the classification in large and medium leagues fall into the same point, teams from the middle of the table simply classified for this competition ... That is, the midlands of the continent. Here the common sense comes to mind again Sevilla: For many uefas you win, you will never be among the best in the continent.
Of these the 16 worst 32 teams that will be eliminated on the knockout, though I would give greater range to those who have played this round after coming fourth classified as 3-phase Champions group. At last, after all, passed a filter that many of its competitors in these knockout did not pass, and that has to be reflected.
The 8 worst that fell below would be eliminated in the second round, and in this round would continue discriminating in favor of those from the Champions League.
quarter From eliminate this discrimination, it is very likely that the teams arrived to this stage without going through the Champions had already had to eliminate 1 or even 2 of them so that we would begin to discriminate on the basis of the outcome of the competition. Thus the 4 eliminated in the quarterfinals, the best would be the fall to eventual champion, the next to fall to the finalist, and the following two those that fell with the semifinalists.
The semifinals would give us the 2 following worst, discriminating in favor of fallen against the champion. The final discern who is the better of the two remaining and most important conclusion of this process: The winner of the Europa League would be the 17th strongest team in Europe, always behind the elite who dispute the second round of Champions.
scores In addition, we would note that the passage of a playoff to another should be reflected by an extra point to accentuate that difference.
scores would therefore like this:
· From among 16 killed in sixteenths, those who did not undergo Champions à 4 pts.
· From among 16 killed in sixteenths, who finished 3 rd in their group of Champions à 5 points.
· In between 8 killed in second round, those who did not go through Champions à 7 points.
· In between 8 killed in second round, those who finished 3 rd Champions in their group of 8 points
• The quarter-losing to the champion à 12 pts.
• The fourth finalist who lost to the finalist to 11 pts.
· The quarter-finalists who lost to the remaining 10 points
• The semi-finalist losing to finalist à 14 pts.
• The semi-finalist losing to the champion at 15 pts.
• The runner-up to 17 pts
• The champion at 19 pts.
THE EUROPEAN ELITE: round of the Champions League
No more wax than they burn. To play the Champions League or win a or stay high in the strongest leagues.
therefore no more than continue the scoring system as we went, starting from the European Champion Legue, and jumping 2 points each time you change from round or to differentiate champions.
· From among 16 killed in sixteenths, those who did not undergo Champions à 4 pts.
· From among 16 killed in sixteenths, who finished 3 rd in their group of Champions à 5 points.
· In between 8 killed in second round, those who did not go through Champions à 7 points.
· In between 8 killed in second round, those who finished 3 rd Champions in their group of 8 points
• The quarter-losing to the champion à 12 pts.
• The fourth finalist who lost to the finalist to 11 pts.
· The quarter-finalists who lost to the remaining 10 points
• The semi-finalist losing to finalist à 14 pts.
• The semi-finalist losing to the champion at 15 pts.
• The runner-up to 17 pts
• The champion at 19 pts.
THE EUROPEAN ELITE: round of the Champions League
No more wax than they burn. To play the Champions League or win a or stay high in the strongest leagues.
therefore no more than continue the scoring system as we went, starting from the European Champion Legue, and jumping 2 points each time you change from round or to differentiate champions.
Thus:
· The Fallen 8 à 21 pts in the second round.
· The 2 that fell in the quarterfinals against the semifinalists à 23 pts.
• The fall in the quarter compared to the end to 24 pts.
• The fall in the quarter compared to the champ à 25 pts.
• The semifinal against the runner who fell to 27 pts.
• The semifinal against defending champion who fell to 28 pts.
• The runner à 30 pts.
• The champion at 32 pts.
Our common sense seems to be satisfied: Barça
both in Europe and the league was always over Sevilla, would add more points all the time, Sevilla who won two UEFA and was very competitive in the league would be just 2 points in a Madrid that does not happen in the league round but is always above and that makes it past the group stage.

A data curious: If we selected the scores of the English teams, Barcelona have ordered 28, Madrid 21, Sevilla 21, Atletico 19, Valencia 12, 4 Athletic, Villarreal 4.

Obviously Sevilla, who had been 5 th in league and won the UEFA beating teams like Schalke could not qualify for Champions knockout or Middlesbrough, who roamed the middle of the Premier, could not be the best team in Europe, let alone the world. Yes could be Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwho won Champions League and in the same year, and we see are about Arsenal, who last year won his last Premier, or Milan, to be champions of Europe next year.
