FIFA 15 - 10 Players Who Will Definitely Be Underrated
8. Filipe Luis
Filipe Luis will be playing in the Premier League this season following his move from Atletico Madrid to Chelsea earlier this summer, and English fans may notice that the defender is underrated - in both the virtual football world and the real one. The defender was shamefully overlooked for Brazil's 23-man World Cup squad and sat out the tournament in his home country, while on last year's FIFA 14 he was rated just 82. That's a poor reflection on one of the game's best left-backs, with Luis forming part of a watertight Atletico defence last season that conceded just 26 goals, helping his side win their first Spanish title in 18 years. In 2013-14, the fullback boasted a pass-completion rate of 80.3 per cent and made 131 tackles and intercepted 49 times, according to the Daily Mail. Yet his omission from this summer's World Cup will mean he will not only have been overlooked by the Brazilian Football Confederation but will also be overlooked by EA when it comes to affording player ratings in their latest football simulation game, which is a real shame. Rating In FIFA 14: 82
