FIFA 14: 10 Players You Must Use Before FIFA 15

By Sam Heard /

8. Robin Van Persie

Manchester United€™s Dutch striker is an extremely dangerous, versatile, fun player in FIFA 14. His decent dribbling skills (84-dribbling, 88-ball control) make you feel like you have complete control over van Persie, while he is also a world-class finisher who can also shoot from range (91-finishing, 87-long shots, 90-shot power). Though we haven€™t really seen him occupy this role in the Premier League, there are a large number of FUT players who alter Robin van Persie to play at CAM. His relatively lacklustre strength and speed mean he can be difficult to use as a striker while €“ at CAM €“ he is comparatively strong and will often win aerial duels. Combine this with his deceptively good passing game (85-short passing) and long shot capabilities and you have an amazing CAM. Though RVP is one of the most dangerous, versatile players in FIFA 14, it wouldn€™t be wise to expect him to be this good in FIFA 15. His rating of 89-overall puts him as the joint-fifth best player in the entire game, a rank his performance this season doesn€™t warrant. Many players underperformed and disappointed at Old Trafford this season under the leadership of David Moyes; van Persie is irrefutably one of them. While he still managed to net 12-league goals for United, he didn€™t look like the same player who had had that exceptional 2012/13 where he was the league€™s top goal scorer.
