Current Rating: 76 - Potential FIFA 16 Rating: 80

Wolfsburg's season has been great, and Bas Dost is the spearhead of their attack. Dost was rated 87 in FIFA 12, as he scored 32 goals in 34 games for Heerenveen, earning him a Team of the Season card. As sporadic as Dost can be, he likes to score goals in bundles.

Bas Dost currently has 16 goals and four assists in all competitions, but his individual performances in certain games have earned him plaudits from around the world, as well as an international call-up for the first time in four years. 

Dost scored eight goals for Wolfsburg in three fixtures, all within the space of a week, including a four goal spree in an incredible 5-4 win against Leverkusen. He knows how to find the back of the net, and was ranked as the most prolific striker in Europe for his form back in March, beating Messi by scoring 13 goals in 819 minutes - a record of one goal every 63 minutes. 

If scoring four goals in a game, as well as scoring twice in a 4-1 win over Bayern Munich - the first player to do that in 102 games - doesn't merit a +4 upgrade, nothing will. He's been in inspired form, and that deserves improvement.
