There's some FIFA ratings that are spot on and some others that we see and can't help feel should be better or worse. But can you do anything about it? Liverpool fans are hoping so.

At this time of the year how good a player is on a game is nearly as important as how good he is in real life, especially if he plays for your team.

The Brazilian midfielder spent the whole of the summer 'injured' and begging for a move to Barcelona but a trip home to play in the national side fixed him and now he's back with the Reds.
