FIFA 20 Ratings: Best Possible XI

3. RM - Lionel Messi

FIFA 20
EA Sports

Club: Barcelona

Overall Rating: 94

FIFA Top 100 Ranking: 1

Who else? No, seriously, was anyone expecting someone different on the right wing than Barcelona's evergreen genius? Even the dependably brilliant Mohammed Salah can't lace Messi's boots in FIFA 20. Liverpool's goal-scoring machine is ranked seven places below Lio in the Top 100.

There's a reason for that. It's bloody Messi.

As tempting as it is to stick Messi up front and watch him bang in the goals, he's technically a right-sided attacking player in-game, and so he's best deployed on the wing. That's where he'll do the most damage to defences, especially if they're prone to pushing wing backs high up the park. His stats speak for themselves, as always.
