But in today's globalized game, the proposal is unlikely to flyFri, 30 May 2008 16:00:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jonah_freedman/05/29/rankings/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jonah_freedman/05/29/rankings/index.htmlA year ago in this space, we dropped the hammer on Liverpool, which had inexplicably defied the odds and advanced to its second Champions League final in three years. But seeing as the Reds lost out to AC Milan, managed only another fourth-place finish in the English Premier League and finished the season without a single trophy, it was a tough call to leave them on the Rankings. Not even another Rafa Benítez miracle could save them.Thu, 29 May 2008 18:07:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/world_soccer/04/30/qa.dein/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/world_soccer/04/30/qa.dein/index.htmlUntil recently, David Dein was one of the most powerful men in soccer. The former vice chairman of Arsenal was behind building one of the strongest brands in the game, ran the G-14 coalition of Europe's biggest clubs and, in 1996, hired a little-known Frenchman by the name of Arsène Wenger.

We take breaks from this space once in awhile to accommodate the odd MLS or international piece, but sometimes it's amazing how much changes when you don't touch the Rankings for four weeks. Specifically, we're talking about Arsenal.Thu, 17 Apr 2008 17:50:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jonah_freedman/03/20/rankings/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jonah_freedman/03/20/rankings/index.html"Difficulties mastered are opportunities won." -- Winston ChurchillThu, 20 Mar 2008 18:05:00 EDThttp://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1711261,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topicshttp://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1711261,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topicsEngland's Premier League seeks to boost its global brand by staging regular-season fixtures in cities around the worldFri, 08 Feb 2008 10:00:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jonah_freedman/12/27/rankings/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jonah_freedman/12/27/rankings/index.htmlIt's been a wild year. But as we close it out in Rankingsville, two things remain the same: The No. 1 team is the one that ruled the roost last December, and Manchester United is at the summit of the English Premier League.Thu, 27 Dec 2007 19:47:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/world_soccer/12/18/vanpersie.qa/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/world_soccer/12/18/vanpersie.qa/index.htmlFour months into the season, Arsenal is the story of the English Premier League. The Gunners were written off in August mostly due to their youth and the departure of ex-captain and scoring machine Thierry Henry. But Arsenal has shocked everyone and is now in first place with just one loss through 17 matches and playing some of the most attractive soccer in the world.

With this weekend's Spanish and Italian kickoffs, all the big boys will be in action.
