There was a time when people just cared whether or not the players who played for their team were good or not in real life. Now of course they want to know if they're good on FIFA 19 or not.
FIFA 19 is almost out and that means we're all eyeing up which of our favourite teams and which of our favourite players will be any good on the latest edition of our favourite football game.
Personally this year I'm really looking to the new mode that allows a player to be removed every time one of the teams score a goal, that'll be good fun for the office games for sure.
But alas the big thing that everyone notices now is players ratings with players themselves even using social media to show their displeasure at how they've been rated.

Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang has started life in the Premier League pretty well for Arsenal since signing in January but from last season's version of FIFA to the one coming out in September he's lost a ranking point.
This has not gone down well with Arsenal fans, especially in hearing he's now rated the same as Manchester United's Romelu Lukaku, oh the horrors!
Now you'll have to excuse my ignorance but Lukaku has been one of the most consistently brilliant forwards in the Premier League for a good few seasons and scored 16 in the league last season.

The Belgian was also instrumental in his country getting to the World Cup semi-final, especially playing brilliantly in the win over Brazil in the quarters.
Sure Aubameyang is also one of the world's best forwards but it's hardly an insult to have him as good as Lukaku, or am I missing something?
Maybe just care whether he outscores Lukaku on the pitch.
