What ever happened to him?? 

All it is is a weighted computation of results over the past few years. Obviously there's always qualitative factors to take into account (e.g. the Scottish league has been effected by rangers downfall these past few yrs but now they are established again).

I miss the big fights he'd start lol

I didn't know that ELO only used league and UCL/UEL games as markers. 

Even then I'd still take a full strength Huddersfield over a full strength Midtylland

Huddersfield definitely has better players.

Holland was never selected by Ange - or Bert. He was last selected as a Socceroo by Holger.

When returning to the HAL  he didn't look that good by his own standards given his previous successes.

The Scottish league and dutch league have been poorly rated by UEFA for years now, and it's no surprise. Generally speaking they do poorly in Europe. It's no surprise the Eredivise is 13th in Europe and Scotland is 22. Ajax and PSV will help maintain the Dutch top 15 ranking by qualifying for the UCL but the other three sides have already been eliminated in Europa League qualifying, that's fairly poor. This all determines European places so it is important and quite balanced.

Ange selected Holland for the 2014 World Cup Squad and Ange played Holland against the UAE, South Africa and Croatia in our friendlies leading up to the 2014 Wocrld Cup.

Need to re-look at Holland according to this..

The other thing to note that even according to this we are weak at right back

Updated above. Scotland a lowly 19th and that's only from top leagues. Including second divions eg EC and bundi 2 etc would be even lower. Also doesn't include Cyprus and Serbia who don't have a rating but I'd say would be ranked higher than Scotland too 

Current UEFA league coefficients- Scotland has risen 6!! I expect this to further to up in coming seasons given Rangers are now stably in the top flight again so too hearts and hibs. Hopefully they can get back up to top 15 which will mean an automatic place in CL benefitting my team (Celtic) and all our aussie players in scotland

For perspective, seeing as this thread started with Gol-Gol's transfer to Sparta Prague, worth noting that he has failed to score in his 7 appearances (6 of them being as a substitute), before being an unused sub for a couple of games, then dropped from the match-day squad altogether for the last few weeks.  He joined the club after their involvement in European competition (which helps their ELO rating) was finished for the year so hasn't had any involvement at that level this year.

Good points.
They didn't qualify this season full stop (not even europa) . At the moment they're fifth in the standings as such their score is one of the few above to drop. 

Of the above only Amini, golgol, mooy, Meredith and jedi's teams have dropped thanks to poor results. 

This comment didn't end well did it :)

August 2019 update..... Scotland keeps inching upsides as Rangers slowly get back to where they were. Would be good if scotland could get back to 15th as this would see them granted an automatic champs league group stage spot. Austria keeps inching upwards too.  Netherlands greece and swiss continuing their downward slides

Cheers for that. Not a long way away from everyone’s Socceroos team anyway 

It would be interesting to see where second divisions would be in regards to Uefa coefs. Since they basically measure the strongest teams in the division I'd imagine the Championship to be around 15? 

I reckon that Socceroo squad based on ELO is the go, pending injuries and game time, maybe swap Loungo for Leckie and bring Grant in at RB.

ELO shows this... Spanish segunda woupd be 7th after Russia, Englisg championship would be 8th one ahead of Portgual.

Thats using the average club score from each league. So whilst say portugal and holland have some really big ranking clubs in porto, ajax etc the average of those leagues is brought down by the shitty low ranked sides.

One thing studying ELO has taught me is that we get too hung up on the league someones in rather than the club. Theres a big big difference playing for PSV like Sainsbury does compared with say a Groningen (which is still like the 6th best in holland). It is a huge drop ranking wise

Something I agree with bit also worth noting that playing against good players will improve you and challenge you. Having numerous big clubs means more challenging games which helps with that. 

Forgot about Anthony Kalik at Hadjuk Split... 1308 

This puts him just outside of the 'ELO socceroos' starting 11

Looking back at this comment now, I'd definitely back Midtylland.

So a yr on...
Oar- left about a week after this to mariners and wrecked himself
Mebrahtu - no game time now in hungary which is a backwater 
Mabil - Was capped shortly after and been great for the roos. Good pick by me ill say
Gersbach - moved to loaer denmark. Still not given much of a go
Jeggo - status quo. Keeps getting picked as backup for roos but no gametime 
Holland - continued to go from strength to strength but still no cap. Overdue

Haha. I was going to bump this actually :) 

- Update March 2020 (Compared with last update August 2019) -
Here are each Aussies club atm.. please let me know if i've missed anyone

Premier League 1750

Dougall Barsnley no change 1412 
Wright Bristol 1536... now Sunderland (unrated)
Ryan Williams - Rotherham 1377, now Portsmouth (unrated) 
Meredith Millwall 1473... REMOVED 

Austria 1484
Holland GAK  very high at 1689!!
Jeggo Austria Vienna 1457 up to 1475

Belgium 1474
Vukovic Genk 1628 fallen long way to 1547

Holland 1457
Dyl Ryan 1470
Hrustic Groningen 1428 up to 1447

Turkey 1427
Behich Basaksehir 1562 up to 1612

Croatia 1402
Karacic- Lokomotiv Zagreb 1384 up to 1434
Kalik Hadjuk Split 1508 now Gorica down to 1395

Denmark 1383
Mabil Midtylland 1506 up a lot to 1562
Amini , Duncan and Gersbach Aarhus 1370 up a long way to 1456 

Cyprus (no rating but judging by club ratings it would be around here)
Giannous Larnaca 1527 down a bit to 1509

Scotland 1355
Rogic, Arzani Celtic 1568 up massively to 1647
Boyle Hibs 1351 up to 1374
Garrucio, Bozanic Hearts 1273 down to 1259
Dykes Livingston 1324

Serbia (no rating but judging by club ratings it would be around here)
Degenek Red Star 1521 up, 1543

Hungary 1302 
GolGol Mebrahtu- Puskás Akadémia Puskás Akadémia 1250 - up to 1320

Israel 1282
Sainbury PSV 1702, now with maccabi haifa down a long way to 1406. Huge drop
Rukas maccabi 1335 up to 1406

Bulgaria 1282
Jurics luzern 1424 now CSKA Sofia , which is surprisingly rated at a higher standard at 1475 

Bosnia (unrated)
Jovanovic FK Sarajevo 1263

Unrated (clubs too low) - Ryan Williams , Ryan Edwards, Harry Souttar,  Lyden, Jason Cummings and Mark Milligan   

Comments - Was surprised to see how strongly Juric's team CSKA are rated (1475) despite a lowly league.. The bulgarian version of rangers or celtic . Which brings me to Celtic and also LASK - both are rated very very highly off the back of outstanding results in the Europa league. Ppl on this forum keep talking about Rogic's decreasing gametime but it must be said that the scottish league and Celtic have improved a lot since Rogic first cemented himself as a starter in 2015/16 when Celtic were only rated about 1500.  Its not that Rogic has dropped off in performance its just that Celtic now have both Ntcham and Christie who push him for a place  combined with his ongoing fitness troubles. Holland's LASK meanwhile is the highest rating of any Australian ive seen since i first started following ELO in 2015. Plays every match, is vice captain and has a tonne of assists this season, surely must get a recall to the Socceroos.
Another thing to note is how few Aussie we now have in Europe. Compare this to say 2004, the numbers have dropped astoundingly. Even compared to recent years we have dropped down. This is probably the fewest ive seen since about 2013. Last point - people need to re look how they view the israeli league - it is rated lowly. Sainsbury has taken a huge step down quality wise albeit Maccabi is the 2nd highest rated club .

Socceroos eleven using ELO..
                    
                    Ryan
Leckie  Degenek D.Ryan Behich
                Mooy Holland
Mabil           Rogic      Arzani 
                   Borrello

Always surprised how high Russia rates using ELO. It’s not a league that comes on my radar much.

Nice work BTW
