The folks at EA Sports have given Irish legend and defensive powerhouse Richard Dunne an unforgivably slow overall pace rating in FIFA 15, which we found out as the stats for the players on FIFA Ultimate Team were made available today.
Dunne's pace rating of 23 (that's out of 100) makes him the second slowest player in the game, behind only 34 year old German defender Oliver Barth, who plays for VfR Aalen in the second tier of German football.
Have a look at Richard Dunne's Ultimate Team card and see for yourself:
We know Richard isn't the fastest, but there should at least be some sort of consolation for how much of a beast he is. 75 ratings for defending and physicality seem a tad low as well, as cases could be made for both of those attributes being 99.
Dunne's player traits in FIFA 15 are leader, power header, and... long passing. The first two are a given, but is the long passing trait a nod to Dunne's ability to pick a pass under pressure, or a pop at the tactics of Irish football?
