Man City star ranks higher than Tottenham’s Dele Alli in FIFA 2018 despite not playing a single game in 2017
Manchester City star Ilkay Gundogan has not played a single game in 2017 due to suffering a knee injury in 2016.
Despite playing just 10 games last season the numbers men at EA SPORTS still feel he deserves a higher ranking than Tottenham attacking midfielder Dele Alli.
The England international scored 22 goals and provided 13 assists in 50 games last campaign but was still rated lower than Gundogan.
Despite falling short of Gundogan, Alli did see his rating increase from 80 to 84 since last year’s figures were revealed.
