FIFA 20: 5 Chelsea players who should get a downgrade

Modified Apr 25, 2019 07:39 GMT

Chelsea FC v AS Roma - UEFA Champions League

Chelsea v Sheffield Wednesday - FA Cup Fourth Round

#4 – Cesar Azpilicueta

Gone are the days when Cesar Azpilicueta was Mr Reliable. Now, he has been highly inconsistent and is making way too many errors in the backline. The Spaniard is the club captain but that doesn't mean he shouldn't be given a downgrade.

Rated at 86, there is no way he will be able to keep that high rating in FIFA 20. He will be pushed to 84 at least by EA Sports as his performances this season have been below average.

#3 – Willian

Willian is a player most of the Chelsea fans want sold in the summer but given that Callum Hudson-Odoi is out for the majority of the next season, that will not be the case. The Brazilian has his contract expiring in 2020, just like Eden Hazard, and is likely to be offered a new deal in the summer.

Rated at 84 in FIFA 19, Willian should be pushed to 82 or below in FIFA 20.
