CB Joe Gomez /// Predicted FIFA 17 OVR 71 /// Latest FIFA 16 OVR 68

Joe Gomez is one of my all-time favorite career mode signings. Despite his low rating, he’s a player I always look to pick up in my manager careers.

If I start managing Liverpool, my first few weeks of training becomes dedicated to Joe Gomez. Once he reaches the 70+ ratings, he transforms into an incredible player to use.

Stats wise, he might not look brilliant, but trust me when I say he really performs. His pace, strength and height make for a monster of a player, and when played at left-back he always ends up grabbing me the odd goal.

Defensively, he can catch most players on the ball and he never really struggles to win it back. Joe Gomez hasn’t featured due to injuries, but I believe his performances from early into last season will have earned him at least a slight upgrade.

A rating around 71 would be nice, but I wouldn’t be surprised if EA still give him lower than that.
