5 unknown players who destroy Lionel Messi in specific attributes in FIFA 17

#2 Joey Barton — Crossing

Joey Barton can hit a better cross than Messi in FIFA 17

Barton has been in the centre of a betting controversy that has seen him get an 18-month suspension from football. However, there is some solace for the English midfielder in FIFA 17. Barton is rated higher than Messi in crossing, although it is criminal to expect Messi to hone his crossing skills by beating defenders and running to the byline before delivering. Barton, though, has the last laugh in this category as his crossing rating of 78 is just higher than Messi’s 77.
