3. Gareth Bale Rated Only 17th In Top 50
Gareth Bale, double PFA Player of the Year winner, third-highest goalscorer in the Premier League last season, Tottenham's top scorer, and, recently, world's most expensive player. His rating on FIFA 14? 87. That makes the Wales international only the 17th best player in the list of 50 greats unveiled by EA, which comes as something of a surprise. Particularly when you compare him with fellow 87'er Juan Mata - whom Bale saw off at the PFA Player of the Year Awards - as well as the aforementioned Wayne Rooney. Perhaps more galling of all is that Nemanja Vidic also shares a rating of 87, and, when you look a little higher up the list, you see that David Silva and Arjen Robben are considered better players.
