FIFA 15: 10 Players Who Will Definitely Receive A Higher Rating

8. Alexis Sanchez (82)

Alexis Sanchez also completed a switch to the Premier League this summer after moving to Arsenal from Barcelona, where he enjoyed a fantastic individual season at the Nou Camp. Sanchez was one of the best players in La Liga last term, scoring 19 league goals to finish as the fourth-highest goalscorer in the division. Only Diego Costa, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were more prolific in Spain in 2013-14, while Sanchez also provided 10 assists. The former Barca man's form convinced the Gunners to fork out £35 million for his services this summer and he's already started paying some of that off by scoring one Premier League goal from his three appearances so far. An increase in rating from his 82 in last year's game is almost a given, then, taking into account his sensational scoring form, and we tip him to see an increase to either 84 or 85. He has taken time to settle down in England following his move but the rating reflects his performances from last season, which were exemplary.
