However, having both been docked a point from 90 to 89, the Anfield duo tumble down to 12th and 15th place in the overall ratings this year. Both Salah and Van Dijk found themselves riding high in the FIFA 21 ratings, in ninth and seventh place respectively. Liverpool's comparative slump in 2020-21 has had a negative effect on their player ratings, with Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk both sliding out of the Top 10.

On that subject, a grand dynasty has come to an end with the news that Ronaldo is not one of the two highest-rated players in FIFA 22. Messi has been a constant fixture in the top two of the FIFA ratings ever since he missed out by a single point in FIFA 09 (behind Iker Casillas and Ronaldo). The upheaval caused by Messi's real-world decampment from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain hasn't affected the Argentina superstar's FIFA rating, which remains at 93. Don't have ESPN?
