Hummels's former Borussia Dortmund teammate Robert Lewandowski has also gone up in the world with the striker ascending 16 places from his far-less-notable position as only the 35th best player in FIFA 14 a year ago. The Bayern Munich man has now cracked the top 20 off the back of a series of goal-laden seasons. Lewandowski netted 20 goals in 33 Bundesliga appearances in 2013-14 and has for the last three years running been named Polish Player of the Year. He hasn't had a chance to shine on the international stage due to his nation's failure to qualify for the World Cup but that doesn't diminish his abilities. The Pole ended last season as Germany's top goalscorer and also scored six goals in the Champions League, as Borussia reached the quarter-finals of the elite club competition. He's been banging in goals over the last few seasons now and already has a reputation as one of the most dangerous forwards in the game at just 26. Expect him to get even better at Bayern.
