FIFA 19 Ratings For 40-31 Spots Include Paul Pogba, Gareth Bale Changes
With EA Sports’ latest football (soccer) game slated for this month, more FIFA 19 ratings have arrived for the Top 100 players. When ratings are released in most sports games, there are always surprises. The numbers change based on how their previous seasons looked. Some players move up with improved ratings in the new title, while others get a downgrade. That’s the case for star players Gareth Bale and Paul Pogba among others.
FIFA 19 Ratings Revealed for Bale, Pogba
Last week, EA released FIFA 19 ratings for the lower part of the Top 100 players. On Sunday morning, the EA Sports FIFA Twitter announced the players in the 40-31 spots. They include stars such as Paul Pogba, James Rodriguez, Gareth Bale, and more.
Bale was shown on a photo along with the tweet. He’s the No. 31 overall player in the game this year as he holds an 88 rating. The Real Madrid star has a 95 pace, 85 dribbling, 88 shooting, and an 84 passing rating. Unfortunately, this is a slight ratings drop and a fall from his previous spot on the FIFA 18 top 100. Bale was the No. 17 player in FIFA 18 with an 89 rating.

Elsewhere, Paul Pogba has reason to celebrate with a slight upgrade to his ratings. Pogba had a great showing during the FIFA World Cup this past summer in Russia. He’ll need to follow that up by showing more of the same in the Premier League. EA Sports gave Pogba an 88 rating for the upcoming game. The Manchester United star was No. 36 in FIFA 18 and held an 87 overall rating, per GOAL.com’s list.

Rodriguez, Casemiro Get FIFA 19 Upgrades
Other players given ratings included Bayern Munich star James Rodriguez as well as Real Madrid’s Casemiro. Both of these players received nice upgrades in terms of their numbers and spots on the top 100. EA Sports awarded No. 37 Casemiro and No. 36 Rodriguez each an 88 rating in the upcoming game. Casemiro was at the No. 71 spot in FIFA 18 so that’s a considerable move up. Rodriguez was the No. 51 overall player last year.
With the latest FIFA 19 ratings reveal, it leaves just 30 more players for EA Sports. Fans are eagerly anticipating which players will find their way into the upper echelon of international stars. Most fans are expecting to see names like Ronaldo, Neymar, and Messi near the top.
However, there’s still several weeks wait until gamers can start using those players as FIFA 19 drops on September 28. Fans can always check out the FIFA 19 soundtrack which includes plenty of hit artists and songs ahead of the game’s release.
