FIFA 19 Winter Upgrades: 5 Goalkeepers Who Will Get A Downgrade

Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester United - Premier League

#3 – Sergio Rico

Fulham FC v Brighton & Hove Albion - Premier League

Sergio Rico was signed with a lot of expectations from Sevilla in the summer by Fulham but has disappointed big time. The London side might be relieved right now that the move was only a loan deal and not a permanent one.

The Spaniard has started in 15 games so far but has managed to keep just 2 clean sheets! Fulham's defence has not helped in any way and they have actually scored own-goals as well – they lost a game to Burnley because of an own goal.

With the Spaniard rated at 80 and him not doing much to justify his rating, EA are likely to push him down to 78. His reflex and positioning stats are set to come down from 81 and 80 to 75 and 77 respectively but then again, it will go unnoticed as not many use him.
