FIFA 15: 15 Ratings EA Sports Have Got Completely Wrong

8. Neymar (86)

While EA have been generous with Ozii, they have completely overlooked Neymar. The Barcelona forward has just enjoyed a tremendously-successful 12 months for club and country yet has risen by just one point from last year's rating of 85. Signed from Santos last summer, the forward excelled during his debut campaign in Spain, scoring 15 goals in all competitions. He also shone for Brazil. With the weight of a whole nation riding on his shoulders, Neymar could so easily have buckled under the pressure as his home country hosted the World Cup, yet he stepped up to the plate and scored four goals and provided an assist to fire the Seleção to the semi-finals. Neymar missed the semis due to an injury sustained in the quarter-final victory over Colombia and had he been fit and able to play, he would surely have added more goals to his tally and may even have won the Golden Boot. He certainly deserves to be higher than 30 on EA's top 50, for that simply does not recognise his status as one of the best players in the world today - at the age of just 22, lest we forget.
