Things have not worked out for Marouane Fellaini. His rating of 81 in FIFA 14 reflected a highly-successful season for former club Everton in 2012-13 during which he finished as the Toffee's top goalscorer with 11 Premier League goals. Those performances led to a move to £27.5 million move to Manchester United on transfer deadline day last summer but the Belgian has gone downhill since then. Fellaini has yet to open his account in a competitive game for United and is still searching for that elusive first league goal nearly 12 months on from his arrival following a campaign scattered with poor form and injury. A wrist injury in particular helped curtain the midfielder's number of appearances with the ex-Everton man managing just 16 Premier League outings and a long spell on the bench is hardly likely to help him maintain his rating of 81 from last year's iteration of FIFA. I'd expect Fellaini's rating to drop like a stone. He will certainly plummet through the 80 point barrier and may end up hovering somewhere above the mid seventy region following a truly disastrous season at Old Trafford. PREDICTED FIFA 15 RATING: 77
