FIFA 15 - 10 Players Who Will Definitely Be Underrated
9. Luke Shaw
Like Lallana, Luke Shaw also excelled for Southampton last season, helping the south-coast club set a barmy record in that they had the second best defence in Europe late last year. Shaw's defensive abilities helped the Saints rack up 14 clean-sheets and by the end of the season make a mockery of the rating of 72 he was punished with in FIFA 14. The left-back became the world's fourth-most expensive defender when he joined Manchester United in a deal that could climb to £31 million earlier this summer and has untold potential having played at a World Cup finals at the age of just 19. His performances last season should see him earn a sharp rise in rating on FIFA 15 while his price tag is bound to leave some unsatisfied by his overall score. Even if Shaw shoots up to 78 some will say he is underrated given the money United paid to bring him to Old Trafford and while pushing him up toward the 80 point barrier may seem overly-generous, you could argue his performances warrant such a leap. As it is however he will likely fall short of many people's expectations in '15. Rating In FIFA 14: 72
