10. Gonzalo Higuaín (Juventus)

In FIFA 17, Juventus hitman Higuaín was ranked 19th in the Top 100 and had an overall rating of 88. That has been improved by 2 points in FIFA 18, and the bull-like striker is now one of the best forwards in the game. Truthfully, he always was, but now his starting overall stat represents that.

Interestingly, Gonzalo's pace has dropped by a point and there are also drops to his passing and physical attributes. Just how did he make it into the Top 10 then? Well, just take a gander at that shooting stat, as well as the superior dribbling skills he has. Get anywhere near the box with Higuaín and you've got a good chance of scoring, put it that way.

Not much has improved with Higuaín aside from that bizarre jump from 88 to 90. The drops certainly didn't suggest he'd be a stick-on for the 10 best players in FIFA 18, but EA apparently believe he's one of the elite. In real-life, he is, but it's curious that the developers chose to drop some of his stats and still put him in the Top 10.
