With one Colombia set to soar toward the 90-point barrier in the FIFA franchise, another will surely go down. Radamel Falcao's current rating of 90 is grossly generous considering the campaign the striker has just endured with Monaco. 12 months ago, Falcao was one of the hottest properties on the market off the back of a goal-laden campaign with Atletico Madrid in which he fired home 28 goals in 34 appearances. That triggered a 60 million move to ambitious, newly-promoted French side Monaco last summer, but Falcao has struggled to live up to his amazing price-tag since. The South American failed to hit double figures in the goal-scoring department last term and managed to conjure up just the nine league goals - not the sort of record befitting one of the world's most expensive forwards. And neither is it a record befitting one of FIFA'S highest-rated players, with Falcao surely set for a dramatic demotion by the time '15 hits store shelves in a little over a month. We think a decrease to around 86 would be sufficient considering his calamitous campaign, for he certainly doesn't deserve to be so close to the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi anymore. Which other ludicrous FIFA 14 ratings need to be fixed before FIFA 15 is released? Share your own pics below in the comments thread.
