Recommended

14. Toni Kroos 87

13. James Rodriguez 87

12. Sergio Aguero 87

11. Andres Iniesta 88

10. David Silva 88

He's improved by a rating point since last year, with an improved physicality and defense as well as improvement in his passing despite a reduction in his shooting and pace skills from last year. He moves up from 17th in last year's FIFA ratings.

9. Thiago Silva 88

The top ranked defender edges ahead of the competition this year, moving into the top 10 from 16th last year. He's coming back even more physical than last year, but like most over 30's loses a hint of pace.

8. Neymar 88

It's absolutely frightening to think that Neymar is the third highest of the Barcelona front three players. That's an awful lot of talent. He's one of the biggest movers in the FIFA 16 ratings, springing a huge leap from 30th last year, as Neymar started fulfilling much of his huge potential

7. Zlatan Ibrahimovic 89

He'll be 34 next year, but there's no sign of Zlatan slowing down any time soon. Dropping slightly from a rating of 90 and fourth place, but will Zlatan be happy with his FIFA 16 rating? We'll wait and see.
6. Eden Hazard 89

Scraped into the top 10 last year, but Hazard is going from strength to strength. His amazing season that brought Chelsea the Premier League title and earned Hazard a deserved Player of the Year award has given him just one extra point in the FIFA 16 ratings, but he's got even faster and better at dribbling. Will be a delight to play the game with.

5. Arjen Robben 90

He's still rated with a 90 overall, but slips two spots in the rankings. His pace is slipping, but there's no doubt that the Bayern winger is still one of the best in the game.

4. Manuel Neuer 90

Manuel Neuer remains as the best goalkeeper in the game, and is ranked even higher with the same FIFA 16 rating as in FIFA 15.

3. Luis Suarez 90

Somehow, Luis Suarez has gained an inch in height, finally reaching the six foot mark after being measured at 5'1'' last year. That could be why he's given a boost in his FIFA 16 rating, and keeps Neymar at bay as the second best Barcelona forward.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo 93

Ronaldo remains as the second best player in the world, despite a boost in his FIFA 16 rating. He was rated as 92 last year, but despite a drop in his pace, passing, dribbling and physicality stats.
