AM Roberto Firmino /// Predicted FIFA 17 OVR 84 /// Latest FIFA 16 OVR 82

A slow first half of his debut’s season on Merseyside, Firmino more than made up for it during the second half of the season.

From January on, Firmino was consistently one of Liverpool’s best attacking players every single game, quietly consistent.

This season, Firmino has picked up exactly where he left off and he got his first goals of the Premier League campaign in Liverpool’s 4-1 drubbing of Leicester City.

On FIFA, Firmino takes some appreciation. By that I mean is that he doesn’t have blistering pace, so if you’re an exclusive pace merchant, there’s better options to be had.

But Firmino’s combination of dribbling and shooting makes him a brilliant player to have, and if he is rewarded with an 84 then he’ll be that much better.
