[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is some good evidence. I just looked at teams playing in the girls ECNL finals starting tomorrow - should be some of the best teams in the country right?

Choose U15 (2010s) as an example. And yes they are. Teams are ranked in Soccer Rankings as follows:
#1
#2
#4
#5
#7
#10
#11
#13[/quote]
Yes but it's somewhat circular. The wins that those teams had in the last few weeks to get to the finals helped to boost their current rankings. In other words they are ranked high BECAUSE they are in the finals. Still, the rankings are useful as a blunt instrument just don't think there is a meaningful difference between the #1 and #13 ranked teams. [/quote]
The ranking app doesnt care about finals. All the matters is if a team scores more or less than the expected number of goals.[/quote]

Yup, and that's why it's better among other reasons. One of those reasons is the app developer is obsessive with fixing incorrect results and responding to feedback. [/quote]
