FIFA 18: 20 Fastest Players

17. Raheem Sterling (Man City)

Straight away, that fairly low 71 for shooting seems a bit unfair from EA. Raheem Sterling may not be consistently deadly in front of goal, but his shooting has never stood out as a weakness for either Liverpool or Man City. In fact, when he's through one-on-one with the goalkeeper, Sterling comes into his own.

He's deceptively good for a right winger at tracking back too, as those 46 defensive and medium work rate stats show. Be honest though, who's really thinking about defending when the ball is at Raheem's feet? Use that 93 pace to your advantage, along with his 4-star skill moves, and you'll bamboozle hapless defenders in the Premier League.

Passing (74) and physical (61) both need some attention, that's for sure. Play Sterling in enough games and both stats should improve enough that they don't become a worry. 93 pace and 85 dribbling are great scores for anyone to have in FIFA, so Sterling should be happy with that despite his strangely poor shooting.
