IFFHS ranks the top leagues
1) Spain 1283,0 points
2) Brasil 1057,0
3) Germany 1037,0
4) Italy 1034,0
5) England 1007,0
6) Argentina 919,0
7) France 880,0
Holland 738,0
9) Paraguay 712,5
10) Chile 711,5
Looks like Paraguay > Portugal
The world ranking for the strongest national leagues has been determined annually by the IFFHS since 1991 on the basis of all national (championship, FA Cup) and (inter)continental (confederations & FIFA club competitions) results of the clubs. This principle has proved to be a very sensitive and an objective indicator. In particular, the world ranking 2012 has produced the following:
1st
The negative trend of the English Premier League of 2010 and 2011 continued in 2012. In the same period, the other top leagues have made up the deficit to the Englishmen. The erratic performances of the English top clubs and their poor showing in the UEFA club competitions are the reasons that the English Premier League is only fifth in the world ranking in 2012. But, using the same rules, the English league clearly dominated the world ranking for the 1st decade of the 21st century.
2nd
The Spanish Primera División is for the third consecutive time The strongest League of the World. The Spaniards have even increased, year on year, their number of points gained.
3rd
The leagues from Brazil, Germany, Italy and England are on an equal level, but the Brazilian Série A took 2nd place only by virtue of the participation by SC Corinthians Paulista São Paulo in the Club World Cup. Without these 34 points the German Bundesliga and the Italian Serie A would be placed ahead of the Brazilians.
4th
Nevertheless the Brazilian Série A remains clearly South America‘s strongest league, ahead of the Primera División of Argentina, Paraguay, Chile and Ecuador.
5th
In Europe the leagues from Germany, Italy, England and France occupied the places after Spain. The Dutch Eredivisie improved by a place, in comparision with 2011 (now 8th place in the world ranking).
6th
In East Europe the Ukraine has the strongest league, while the Russian league has fallen behind following the poor international results of their clubs. In South-East Europe the leading leagues of Romania, Turkey and Greece are virtually on a par.
7th
The Korean league (K-League) has a clear lead ahead of the leagues of Japan and Saudi Arabia, and is the strongest leagues in Asia. The Iranian league follows but by some margin. The Saudi Professional League has now qualified for the promotion to the second-highest group of performance (1.1.2013).
8th
Following good results in the CAF club competitions, Sudan has the strongest league in Africa, ahead of the leagues from Tunisia, Mali and Morocco, that 2011 was the best-placed African league in the annual world ranking. By a small margin the leagues from Nigeria, Ghana, Angola and Zimbabwe follow, while the Egyptian league without national competitions fell to 91st place.
9th
In the CONCACAF area the Mexican Primera División is the strongest league, while the MLS (USA) is again the No..2 in this region, ahead of Costa Rica and Guatemala.
10th
The league of the to AFC changed Australia has more improved in the annual world ranking (now 52. place). The New Zealand league again failed to gain a place among the "Top 100".

Didn't bother with that, because you will probably get the delusional la liga fans ie the Madrid ones who cheer for Barca in the CL and pretend to be spanish saying we are butthurt etc.

I don't think Brazil belongs there. Spain is too much higher than Serie A and Bundesliga.

Re: IFFHS ranks the top leagues
Brazil the 2nd best league in the world Brazil is the best league outside of Europe though but still it would be about 10th place.
And the Argentinian League is rubbish compared to the average European League like Holland or France etc.

Re: IFFHS ranks the top leagues
I really dont know how one can conclusively know one league is better than another, let alone ranking them.
This sort of crap has no place in football in my opinion, what good does it serve?

They do. But this is like one where you you measure without being able to take off your pants.
Total guesswork.

Holland?Most of our clubs are better and richer nowadays.Russia and portugal?they buy our second tier players (just like Ukraine).As I said a million times,many of portugals teams are made up of players from our second division.
