FIFA 15 Ratings: 10 Criminally Underrated Superstars
6. Sergio Aguero (86)
One of the most criminally underrated superstars on FIFA 15 is Sergio Aguero, with the Manchester City forward being downgraded by TWO POINTS from last year's game to a paltry 86. This is despite the fact he scored 17 goals in 23 league appearances and averaged almost a goal-a-game last season, despite missing much of the campaign with injury. A recurring knee problem dogged the Argentinian throughout 2013-14 but he was still able to fire in six goals in five games in the Champions League group stages, to help his side reach the knockout rounds for the first time in their history. His predatory form in Europe also extended to domestic competition, as he overtook Arsenal legend Thierry Henry as the player with the highest goals-per-minute ratio in the history of the Premier League era. And so it is unfathomable that Aguero has been downgraded. Like Vidal, we can only assume EA's decision is based on his patchy injury record last term, while the fact he was sidelined for much of the World Cup wouldn't have helped. But again, this is a weak argument, because while he was ruled out of action for large chunks of the season, he still scored in virtually every game he played.
