      England have dropped down to fourth in the latest FIFA rankings after being leapfrogged by Belgium.

      Gareth Southgate's team lost 5.15 points while Belgium lost just 3.23 over the recent international breaks allowing Belgium to move up into third behind second place France and world champions Argentina.

      The Three Lions have played two games in 2024, a defeat to Brazil before a draw with the aforementioned Belgium.

      Elsewhere, Portugal continued their rise under Roberto Martinez and moved up to sixth in the rankings ahead of the Netherlands while the USA are now up to 11th having won the CONCACAF Nations League in March.

      Further down the table, Wales remain in 29th despite missing out on Euro 2024 while Scotland move down five places to 39th, the Republic of Ireland move up two places to 60th, and Northern Ireland move up one place to 73rd.

      Overall, Indonesia were the biggest climbers in this set of ranking moving up eight places while Vietnam were the biggest losers, moving down 10 places.

      As a football fan, I'm disappointed to see England drop down to fourth in the FIFA rankings. It's a shame that our recent losses have resulted in this drop, but I have faith that the team will bounce back and reclaim their spot at the top. Congratulations to Belgium on their rise to third, but I still believe England has what it takes to be at the top.

      Wow, tough luck for @England dropping to fourth in the FIFA rankings! Definitely need to step up their game if they want to reclaim their spot.

      As a football fan, I'm disappointed to see England drop to fourth in the latest FIFA rankings. However, I have to admit Belgium's recent performances have been impressive, allowing them to overtake us. Let's hope the Three Lions can bounce back in their upcoming games.

      Disappointed to see England drop to fourth in the FIFA rankings. Belgium just managed to edge us out with their recent results. Still, we have time to improve and catch up. Let's go Three Lions!
