FIFA 20: 5 top strikers who should get a downgrade

Strikers are the ones FIFA players spend most of their coins on. Getting Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi as the striker (from the current lot of players) is the dream for many. Others opt for cheaper alternatives while the best players always go for legends like Ronaldo Nazario, Gary Linekar etc.

While these top-rated strikers are unstoppable in FIFA, their performances dip a lot in real. There are a lot of top strikers who failed to live up to their expectations last season and are set to get a downgrade in FIFA 20.

Without further ado, here are the top 5 strikers who should get a downgrade:

#5 – Gonzalo Higuain

Gonzalo Higuain was a part of 3 clubs last season, and at the end of it, none of them wanted him in their squads. He was a Juventus player at the start of the season but was informed straight away that he wasn't needed there because of the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo.

He moved to AC Milan on loan in the hope of getting to start a lot of games but wasn't able to deliver there. He was at his best during his time at Napoli, and the San Siro side expected him to replicate it, but he failed.

Chelsea signed him on loan in January and Sarri got him to start a lot of the matches, but he wasn't able to settle in quickly. He was benched for Giroud, and now with Sarri gone, The Blues decided not to extend the striker's loan or sign him.

Rated at 88 in FIFA 19, there is no way he is going to be able to stay at the same. There is a very good chance of him getting pushed down to 85 or even 84 as there are way too many strikers better than him at the moment.

#4 – Antoine Griezmann

Antoine Griezmann has got his dream move to Barcelona, but he isn't the same player he was a couple of seasons back Ernesto Valverde will be hoping that he gets back to his best quickly but last season was just average for the Frenchman.

Rated at 89 in FIFA 19, the former Atletico Madrid star is very likely to be pushed to 87 at least in FIFA 20.

#3 – Romelu Lukaku

Romelu Lukaku is another striker who had a terrible 2018/19 season. The Belgian was 'missing' in a lot of the big games and is now looking for a move away from Manchester United.

Rated at 87 in FIFA 19, the former Chelsea and Everton striker is set for a downgrade. It will be a massive surprise if he is rated anything above 85 as the other strikers ranked in that category are better than him.

#2 – Edinson Cavani

Edinson Cavani did not have a terrible season, but his performances have not been like they used to be. Maybe it is because Neymar and Mbappe are outshining him, but the fact remains that he isn't what he was at Napoli or the start of his career at PSG.

Rated at 89 in FIFA 19, Cavani is likely to be pushed 88 at least because of his age and performances.

#1 – Luis Suarez

Luis Suarez might have won LaLiga with Barcelona, but the striker is nowhere close to his best. He has been missing a lot of chances, and there are a lot of games where the Catalan side have struggled because of him.

Rated as the 3rd best striker in FIFA 19 with a rating of 91, the Uruguayan is set for a downgrade. He is likely to be pushed to 89 but deserves to be around 87 in FIFA 20.
