FIFA 15: 10 Over-Rated Teams Who Need Downgrading

Each and every year with the release of a new instalment, the most exciting thing for we FIFA nerds is to place the brand-spanking new disc in the drive and go straight to the team selection menu to see what rating the egg-heads at EA Sport have given to all the top players, long before we ever even sit down to actually play the game. This excitement most certainly doesn€™t stop at the player ratings though. Equally as important is to see what the team as a whole has been rated based on their previous year€™s endeavours. Inevitably there will always be fractious fans moaning that their favourite team hasn€™t been adequately represented or that the EA Montreal team have once again overestimated their local rivals from across the city.
