FIFA 15 - 10 Players Who Will Definitely Be Underrated
4. Xherdan Shaqiri
Another player who enjoyed a successful World Cup yet is still set to be underrated in FIFA 15 is Xherdan Shaqiri. The winger spent most of last season on the fringes with Bayern Munich but shone at the finals in Brazil by netting a hat-trick during Switzerland's 3-0 thrashing of Honduras in the group stages. Shaqiri became the first Swiss player to score a brace at the World Cup since Adrian Knup netted twice against Romania in 1994 and the first to score a hat-trick at the World Cup in Switzerland's history. However, these records will likely do very little to enhance his rating in FIFA 15. The playmaker was barely used by Bayern last season and made a paltry 17 Bundesliga appearances for the German giants. His disappointing run-out at domestic level will probably mean Shaqiri remains hovering around the low eighties in '15 rather than soaring among the mid-eighties his recent performances deserve. Rating In FIFA 14: 80
