Does anything strike you from the list? Anyone overrated or underrated? How do you feel about only have four players at 90 overall or above?

Gomez/Tevez too high, Arturo Vidal too low. I'd take Vidal over every single CM on that list, including Xavi and Iniesta. The way he impacts the game in all three zones deserves a higher rating, imo. FIFA tends to weigh defensive prowess too lightly, imo.

[Dave Pearson]

Actually, I'd probably put him equal with Yaya Toure. That's just my personal preference though. I understand the class of Xavi/Iniesta's offensive game. I just prefer more physical players in my CM

Pedro's higher than Alexis and Neymar?
I'd also have Iniesta in at .4 instead of Falcao.

Neymar is unproven. As good as he was in the Brasileirao , he's unproven because its ... the Brasileirao. He's only hype until he can prove it after this season.However, PES is better with ratings because EA has a cap on leagues and how good and bad players can be while PES has nothing like that which is why I like PES. They do Portugal better justice as opposed to FIFA used to.

So in conclusion, Neymar shouldn't get a 90 just based off his name alone

I agree he shouldn't be a 90 but definitely at least a top 50 player. I know you can't go off of his accomplishments in Brasil which are not that great compared to others to come out of Brasil but what he did in the ConFed cup against some of the best in the world should at least garner an 85

Only rating I'm scratching my head is Ribery at 90.
