It pisses me right off with spurs' FIFA ratings. Every year, even after 2 years of battling for the title! Player ratings which are massively wrong IMO:
- Dembele - 82 (Should be 84 or more)
- Wanyama - 80 (Should be 82 or more)
- Rose and Walker should/should have been a point higher at least, they were both part of the best defence in the league and gave a lot going forward too.
- Dier should have been higher than 79! There are players on the game who are rated 80, like Shawcross and Jones, Smalling is rated 83 for crying out loud!
- Kane has and does what only a couple of strikers do and that's everything a complete forward should do, scores tonnes of goals and is involved in everything. Has to be pushing 88/89. Who does better that's not rated higher?
Some will probably disagree, but I really think Spurs players are massively underrated on FIFA.

No doubt Walker will prob get a boost on the sole basis he's moved to City

Got leaked that eriksen is now 87. The third highest CAM rating behind KDB (89) and, yes, özil on 88
Moving to a big club is automatic +2 because EA just cares about money. Lukaku got a +2 last season and Kane only a +1. It's obvious who had the better season. Only difference is Lukaku went to beloved United.
Name, Fifa 17 rating - my Fifa 18 prediction
Lloris 88 - 88
Rose 81 - 81
Davies 78 - 80
Alderweireld 85 - 86

Eriksen 86 - 87
Son 80 - 82
Lamela 81 - 80
Kane 85 - 87
Janssen 77 - 75

If it was up to me, they would all get an instant +3

The FIFA ratings are all relative, really, but it is nice for certain players to get bumps from the previous year. Will be most interested to see how certain 'equivalents' on more highly-supported teams fare (i.e. if Lukaku is rated higher than Kane then I'll be pissed).
The most frustrating thing for me is that EA clearly don't put all that much effort into the physical attribute ratings for each player. An example being Dier rated as the slowest member of our team in FIFA 17, despite this not appearing to be the case in real life. Dembele and Lamela were bewildered about this when being interviewed.
There's also the painfully slow regression of players in the game who have gone to shit in real life. Sissoko will undoubtedly remain close to 80 despite... every piece of evidence over the last year.
I'll be nerdy here and say that I really care more about our player potentials considering I like to play manager mode with Spurs as soon as I get the game.

I don't know if anyone would be interested in this but I'll post it anyway.
The top 100 FIFA 18 players are being released over the next few days.
100-81 were released today with Dele being rated 84.
81st place is 85 rated.
Which of our players do you think will be on the rest of list?
I'd expect Kane, Lloris, Eriksen and Alderweireld to be up next.

These are probably pretty close but I can't see Trippier and Davies higher than 78s because FIFA doesn't treat full backs well. I can see Vertonghen at 84.
Imagine if we'd been able to pull off that Isco signing before. Isco and Eriksen would have been a sight in our shirt
GOAT game
If Jan is 85 then I reckon we are going to be really good on the game this year
