FIFA 17: 10 Surprisingly Fun Teams To Play As
3. Valencia CF (Primera Division)
The real-life downfall of Valencia is one of the biggest surprises of the season. It started a season before, but this time they're fighting relegation with a roster that validates European contention. Valencia is the only team on this list with a very solid defense, as Eliaquim Mangala, Jose Gaya and Ezequiel Garay are rated over 80, with 75 right-back Montoya the odd man out. You can always play with three defenders, but that rarely is a good choice in FIFA, especially against top-tier teams.
The midfielder Dani Parejo (82) and winger Nani (83) are good for some counter attacks, while the team's only problem is the lack of a proper striker as Rodrigo (74) and Munir (71) don't guarantee many goals. That's why it's better to play through the midfield and let the attackers just distract the opposing defenders. That's the least they can do, right?
