Fans need to know in detail about the best strikers in FIFA 15 career mode. We now know the best young players to choose in the career mode, but who are the best strikers? You need them in order to provide the finish touches and ultimately win you games. Compiling a list of the best strikers in the game is easy, but the big question is are they affordable?
So we will compile a list of the best strikers under different circumstances.
Best based on ratings alone
1. Lionel Messi
Undoubtedly, Lionel Messi! With a rating of 93, he is also recognised as the best player in FIFA 15 ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo. Messi is 27 years old in the game and can offer you even six very good seasons. But is he affordable? He will probably cost you more than any other player in the game? You can probably buy him only if you are playing with Manchester City, PSG or Real Madrid.
2. Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Ibrahimovic with a rating of 90 is at number 2. The beast has been in sensational form, but then again his age is something that you should consider. He will turn 33 in his very first season in the game, so he will probably start declining soon.
3. Luis Suarez
Suarez is just 27 in the game, so can get a lot of good years out of him. But then again he cost Barcelona so much for the transfer, so you have to pay them big, and also you won’t be able to use him until the 26th of October in FIFA 15 too because of the ban.
4. Robin Van Persie
Van Persie has been given a healthy rating of 88 in FIFA 15. But he is 31 years old and is injury prone, so will start declining in career mode at a pretty rapid rate. If you have money and are looking for a short term fix, then he will fit the bill.
5. Radamel Falcao
Falcao with a rating of 88 is the fifth best striker in FIFA 15 based on the ratings alone. He is 28 years old and since he made a big money to AS Monaco, you definitely won’t get him at a cheap price.
So these guys along with the likes of Sergio Aguero, Robert Lewandowski, Wayne Rooney and Edinson Cavani are the best strikers in the game on the basis of the ratings. But you need to be managing the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City, Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG or Bayern Munich. The other clubs can’t afford such high prices or the wages.
Also the names mentioned above are all at their prime and except Lewandowski, you can’t expect the other strikers to keep improving in the coming seasons. In fact they will start declining.
If you are managing a club which will offer you around 20 million to buy a striker, then the likes of Wilfred Bony, Bafetimbi Gomis, Ciro Immobile and Romelu Lukaku would prove to be good options.
What if you are managing a club that fights for a mid table position and looks to improve slowly? In that case, you can invest your 10 or 12 million on these following young strikers who will become world class within three seasons.
1. Luciano Vietto (Villareal CF)
The Argentine sensation is just 20 years old and is rated 74 in the game. It’s predicted that he will grow up to 85 proving why he is a part of this list.
2. Aleksandar Mitrovi? (Anderlecht)
The 19 year old Serbian from Anderlecht is already rated 74 in FIFA 15 and is estimated to grow up to 85 in the coming seasons. Don’t waste your time and buy talents like these as soon as possible before their value goes up.
3. Richairo Živkovi? (Ajax)
Can prove to be the best buy amongst them all. This teenage sensation is just 17 years old. Buy him straightaway and watch him grow up to 86 in the game. Right now he is rated 69 and is available for a cheap price and hence is viewed as one of the best strikers in FIFA 15 career mode.
4. Michy Batshuayi (Olympique de Marseille)
Belgium continues to amaze us by continuously producing some world class young talent and Michy falls in to that category. The 21 year old is rated 76 in the game and will jump up to 86 or even more in the coming years.
5. Mauro Icardi (Inter Milan)
The 21 year old Argentine is already making headlines with Inter Milan. So do not wait any longer. He is rated 76 right now and can grow in to the late 80’s if played regularly in the future.
Ok and finally, are you the type of player who chooses to pick a team from the second division and slowly improve with them and help them gain promotion? In that case, you will have a very low budget to work with, and that’s why with whatever little you have, you should be investing it on some teenage players who can grow rapidly.
Teenage Sensations
1. José Luis Sierra (Unión Española)
He is aged 17 and is rated 53, but score a few goals and see that rating shoot up to 78 in a few seasons.
2. Karim Achahbar (En Avant Guingamp)
Karim is 18 years old and is rated just 53, but he can get up to 75 or even more in the future.
3. Harry Cardwell (Reading)
The young English striker is rated 55 and is estimated to go past 75 in the coming seasons in FIFA 15 career mode.
4. Mamadou Tounkara (Lazio)
The Lazio striker is rated 61 in the game, and is expected to go past 80 in a few years. He is just 18 years old.
5. Donis Avdijaj (FCSchalke 04)
The 18 year old hitman from Schalke is rated 60 in the game, buy him and see him rise to the top of the world.
6. Federico Bonazzoli (Inter Milan)
We saw Icardi in the previous list, and Federico has all the makings of becoming the next one. He too is rated 60 like Donis and can grow massively.
