Mario Balotelli – FIFA 15 original rating: 82 – Prediction: 79
Despite his worldwide appeal, the Italian’s solo league goal in 2014/15 will see his rating cut by the game-makers. He’ll do well to stick in the 80s.
Simon Mignolet – FIFA 15 original rating: 82 – Prediction: 82
Thankfully, Mignolet’s superb calendar year form should see him retain his generous 82 from last time around.
Daniel Sturridge – FIFA 15 original rating: 83 – Prediction: 82
83 for Sturridge was woefully harsh, so despite the fact that his injury has seen his pedigree drop, there’s no way a player of his ability can be rated worse than 82.
