The FIFA 17 site is doing a run-down of the Top 50 ranked players in the upcoming game, complete with Ultimate Team card images. Today, the twenty players in positions 50-31 have been revealed.
Said to be “based on their performances over the last 365 days in league and cup competitions”, these are the chaps who are likely to be most sought-after in the game. At least until upgraded ‘Team of the Week/Month’ form cards show up.
The ratings in this tier range from 86 (Matuidi, Payet and more), to 88 (just Hugo Lloris for now, though 30 and above probably contains more 88-rated players). FIFA 17 will be released on 27 September in the US, and 29 September in Europe. Here’s the list in text form, follow the link for card images.
