Juventus Best Italian Club Of All-Time

IFFHS: Juventus Best Italian Club Of All-Time


The International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) have released their fifteen year study a couple days ago in their quest to compile ‘The All-Time Club World Ranking’. To no one’s surprise at the Juventus Offside, our Bianconeri have placed quite high. So high in fact that not only are we the top ranked Italian team of all-time, but we came in second spot as the all-time greatest club in the world. Come on, second? Now I’m no math major but hear me out. You take the derivative B (Baggio) in order to find the maximum value of S (Schillaci) with respect to V (Vialli) and R (Ravanelli), if we then consider the value Z (Zidane) as the ideal player and value D (Del Piero) as the expected level of performance, you then can cross multiply values N (Nedved) with values B (Buffon) and divide by the premium T (Trezeguet) with respect to C (Camoranesi) in order to find Juventus’ utility function for the all-time club world ranking. Sure sounds like first to me.

To give some you background information on the IFFHS in case you’ve never heard of it before it was founded in Leipzig on March 27, 1984, by Dr. Alfredo Poge. It is registered with the Royal Danish State Office. The IFFHS is all about establishing a scientific chronological documentation of world football and determining authentic world records in all areas of football. Despite what many critics of the list may think, the IFFHS claims that it will tolerate no political, military, religious, ethnic or national influence, and in this regard follows FIFA and UNO. The IFFHS also states that its activities are in accordance with the efforts and guidelines of FIFA for the statistical reproduction of the world soccer.

How They Came Up With Their Point System

An All-time Club World Ranking can only be meaningful and useful if it can be determined by taking account all the results of the national championships, the national cup competitions, the club competitions of the six continental confederations. It is therefore only possible to determine an All-time Club World Ranking from January 1st, 1991 – when the Club World Ranking began taking all these details into consideration. The period from 1872 to 1990 can only be asssessed subjectively, mostly by using national and international champions as a guide. It follows that teams placed in the individual competitions cannot be taken into consideration, even if their titles were won easily or in spite of many defeats. It is simply not possible to establish a basis for giving all participating clubs an equal opportunity for the period 1872 to 1990. The IFFHS has therefore has decided, logically, that the All-time Club World Ranking should be determined from January 1st, 1991 using the annual Club World Ranking (the situation at 31st December annually). For this it will take into consideration the “Top 50 Clubs”, annually and award them points from 50 points for the top club down to 1 point for the club in 50th place. Adding the points from the individual years for each club will provide the All-time Club World Ranking. (To Quote their official site)
