5 footballers who were unhappy with their FIFA 17 ratings

#2 Rio Ferdinand

Ferdinand threatened to tear down EA’s office

Former Manchester United star Rio Ferdinand has won lots of accolades during his playing career. Six Premier League medals and one Champions League medal adorns his personal cabinet.

Of course, the Englishman was included in FIFA 17’s ‘legends’ feature that includes players that once ruled the football world. The objective for this feature is to give the FIFA enthusiasts an opportunity to play as them despite being retired.

Ferdinand’s ratings stand at a very impressive 88. However, the now TV pundit disagrees with FIFA’s appraisal. He is of the opinion that his ratings should be given a massive boost, especially his passing and pace rating, and even threatened (in jest, obviously) to come down and tear EA Sports’ place.

The man marshalled the defence of one the greatest Premier League side of all times for over a decade. Surely, he deserves a higher rating than 88?

Launch day of @EASPORTSFIFA are u sure!! In my prime.. 81 Pace & 65 Passing! Don't let me come in and have to tear the place down! #FIFA17 pic.twitter.com/6AaUPm10N0
