CB Dejan Lovren /// Predicted FIFA 17 OVR 80 /// Latest FIFA 16 OVR 79

A player who has really turned his Liverpool career around under Jurgen Klopp, Dejan Lovren is underrated on FIFA 16. With an Ultimate Team rating of only 79, Dejan Lovren barely features in the top online Premier League teams.

In FIFA 17 career mode, he’ll be competing with the likes of Mamadou Sakho and Joel Matip for a place in your starting 11 – presuming you don’t sign extra players in that position.

After the headed goals he’s scored for Liverpool (see the Dortmund winner) he surely deserves increased heading stats. His defensive stats are fairly high, but given his strong performances and constant improvements, he deserves a boost.

An overall of 80 would be nice, but I’m hoping for that sweet 81 rating to make him even more useful in my Liverpool career mode.
