FIFA 14: 5 Things We Learned From Final Player Ratings

3. Man Utd Have Three Of Premier League€™s Top Five Finishers

Robin Van Persie 2 If Manchester United fans felt aggrieved by the omission of Michael Carrick from FIFA 14's top 5 passers list, they will be celebrating when they see three of their strikers make up the top 5 Premier League finishers. United have three of the league€™s top five forwards - Robin van Persie (1st), Javier Hernández (4th) and Wayne Rooney (5th). New Spurs signing Roberto Soldado is in at third place while Sergio Aguero represents the blue half of Manchester in second place, behind Van Persie. There can't be many gripes here. RVP was the Premier League's Golden Boot winner last season, Aguero netted 17 times in 40 appearances, Soldado was Spain's fifth-highest goal-scorer while Hernandez had 24 shots on target in 22 appearances. Perhaps the only issue is the omission of Luis Suarez when it comes to listing the Premier League's top 5 strikers in FIFA 14. The Uruguayan did, after all, finish as the division' second-highest goalscorer. Christian Benteke also deserves an honourable mention here.
