FIFA 16: 10 Outstanding Free Agents You Could Sign

7. Joey Barton - 75

Now from a former-Newcastle saint, to a former-Newcastle demon. Joey Barton is an infamous presence on a football field, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's as good as he would have you believe. His 'best English midfielder' claims were rightly mocked, but maybe there is a half-decent player inside 'Joseph'. As a central midfield battler, he's there to break up the play and spread the ball up the field. He's shown glimpses of class with a football at Newcastle and QPR, but they're overshadowed by moments of madness. Thankfully, that's where you can beat FIFA. In the game, you can harness his talent without stamping, kicking and screaming around the pitch, and would be a decent Premier League signing.
