With the launch of FIFA 17 just around the corner, Newcastle United’s player ratings have been revealed. A mass exodus of old favourites such as Moussa Sissoko (lets be fair he was good on FIFA!) and Andros Townsend, (it was short lived we know) have left and a new crop of exciting prospects have flooded the squad. But how do the FIFA editors see our new talent?
There’s some good news Toon fans, Matz Sels has managed to grab a 77 rating, Jesus Gamez leads the way with a 78 rating and fan favourite Matt Richie has a fair 76!
There’s also some absolute shockers. Jamaal Lascelles, despite being one of the youngest captains in the league this season, gets a low 71 rating. Midfield beast Isaac Hayden, who could stake a solid claim for one of our better players this term, sits on a 66 rating, a full 10 behind Jack Colback.
DeAndre Yedlin boasts an impressive 93 pace whilst Christian Atsu weighs in with a solid 91 pace rating. Jonjo Shelvey leads the passing stats with an average 79 rating. Aleksander Mitrovic can claim the best shooting stat with a meagre 76 rating.
