Top 7 pass masters in FIFA 14

Beauty lies in passing of the ball.

Passing is the most essential part of football. If you pass the ball in the correct manner, you can create a goal. However, if you pass the ball in a poor manner, you can concede one. Passing is the engine of a train called Football.

Similarly, in FIFA 14, passing is of paramount importance. And these passers of the balls are the ones who make players like Ronaldo and Messi tick in your team. In this article, we present the top ten pass masters that you can sign in FIFA 14.

Antonio Cassano

Antonio Cassano

The Italian veteran, who plies his trade at Parma, comes in at number 10 on this list.

At 31 years of age, he is not the ideal signing. He also lacks pace, which should cross him off from our transfer targets’ list.

However, with his passing at 88, he can be a steal of the transfer market. You can play him in the hole behind the striker and he will flourish thanks to his passing prowess.

With an OVR of 81 and impressive finishing stats, he can still be a regular on the scoresheet.

Cheap and effective, this one.

Francesco Totti

Francesco Totti

At number 9, is another Italian veteran in the form of Francesco Totti.

This man needs no introduction whatsoever. The AS Roma legend has an OVR of 82 and it becomes all the more impressive when you compare it to his age, which is 36 years.

Even though he lacks the pace to mix it at the top of the lot, he possesses stunning passing abilities, rated at 88.

He is well versed with both long and short passing and can be an asset for any team on any given day.

The biggest challenge, however, lies in pricing him away from AS Roma.

Xabi Alonso

Xabi Alonso

From Serie A to La Liga.

Xabi Alonso comes in at number 8 on the list and none could argue that the Spanish pass master does not deserve it.

Alonso has an OVR of 85, which makes him one of the top passers in the game. His long passing is rated at an astonishing 94, with the overall passing at 88.

He also possesses a vision of 91, which makes playing those unrealistic long balls all the more easier.

If you are looking for a dominant midfield general who can dictate the game and can chip in with a goal or two, Xabi Alonso is your man.

Cesc Fabregas

Cesc Fabregas

It is time to take out the big guns. Cesc Fabregas comes in at number 6 on this list.

With a passing of 90, Fabregas is one of the top playmakers in the game. At the age of 26, he is a versatile midfielder with a huge potential to develop further.

He is one of the stars of the game and in every sense of the word, is a pass master.

His vision and positioning make him the must-have superstar in your team as he can play both the scorer and the provider with relative ease.

However, Barcelona will not let him go on the cheap. That’s a certain.

Andrea Pirlo

Andrea Pirlo

We return to Italy for our pick number 4 on the list. Juventus midfield maestro Andrea Pirlo, with an OVR of 86, is one of the top overall players in the game.

Passing of 91 only adds to his already impressive statistics. He has a way with set pieces and is confident with both long and short passes.

His vision, at 94, is the reason why you should buy him, even if that is for one season. He can find passes that other players might not even consider playing.

However, his age of 34 plays the spoil sport in any deals that we plan for the Italian legend.

Andres Iniesta

Andres Iniesta

From Andrea to Andres. The Spanish creative comes in at number 3 on this list.

Andres Iniesta is one of the stars of world football at the moment and no introduction can do justice to the Spanish player.

He plies his trade at Barcelona and is an indispensable asset for the Catalan club. His passing stands at 91, which makes him one of the top playmakers in the game.

He has a ball control of 94, which comes handy while retaining possession of the ball.

At the age of 29, he is already at the peak of his game and not much development can be expected on the current OVR of 89.

Xavi

Xavi Hernandez

Number 1 passer on our list is none other than Barcelona legend, Xavi Hernandez.

A world class player in every sense of the word, Xavi possesses a passing ability of 92, which is the highest for an outfield player in the game. With an OVR of 89, he becomes the best passer in the game.

He has a short passing of 96, which is also the highest in the game. In simple words, he barely passes a ball wrongly. His ball control of 94 and vision of 96 make him the complete package.

If you want a player who plays everyone else effortlessly, Xavi is the man for you.

At the age of 33, he has lost some pace, but still has enough class to drive a team past the finishing line.

Oh, and Barcelona will not sell him.
