England drops out of top ten in FIFA world rankings

England has reportedly dropped out of the top ten in FIFA's world rankings till November, and has moved down to three places to 13th.

The drop in rankings for England comes after they lost twice in five days at Wembley, going down 2-0 to Chile and 1-0 to Germany.

According to the BBC, England, which is sitting on the 13th on 1,041 points with Portugal, Brazil and Greece moving above them, had climbed seven places to 10th with wins over Poland and Montenegro after they had dropped to 17th in September, their lowest position for 12 years.

However, the report mentioned that the new rankings would not alter the seedings ahead of the World Cup draw on December 6, with FIFA using October's rankings to confirm the top seeds, which England is not a part of.
