We now look at the ten best MLS players in FIFA 15 after analysing the best young players in the game’s career mode previously.
#10 Federico Higuan - Columbus Crew
The 29 year old Argentine attacking midfielder is the Captain of the Columbus Crew in the MLS and has an overall rating of 76 in FIFA 15. And yes, he is the elder brother of Napoli’s star striker and former Real Madrid hitman, Gonzalo Higuain. Federico scored 11 goals and made 9 assists last year in the league.
#9 Diego Valeri - Portland Timbers
He is followed up by another Argentine footballer who plays in the same position. Diego Valeri plays for the Portland Timbers and has won 3 caps for his national team. The 28 year old is rated 76 in the game and won the MLS newcomer of the year award last year.
#8 Obafemi Martins - Seattle Sounders
The 29 year old Nigerian striker has played for the likes of Inter Milan and Newcastle United before and now plies his trade for the Seattle Sounders. He is rated 76 and with a pace rating of 93, he is recognised as one of the fastest players in FIFA 15.
#7 Landon Donovan - LA Galaxy
The 32 year old veteran might have fell out of favor with his coach before the World Cup, but very much remains the face of American football. Fans have an extra incentive in his case as he has announced his decision to retire from the game after the 2014 season, so you may not see him in the next edition.
#6 Jermaine Jones - New England Revolution
The 32 year old defensive midfielder is rated 77 in the game and probably won’t be improving further in career mode. But can prove to be a decent buy for your side considering he won’t cost a lot.
#5 Thierry Henry - New York Red Bulls
37 year old Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry is still slotting goals in the MLS and has been given a healthy rating of 79 in FIFA 15. It is actually an upgrade considering he was rated 78 in FIFA 14. He scored 7 goals this year in 21 matches
#4 Robbie Keane - LA Galaxy
Irish skipper Robbie Keane comes in next at number 4 with a rating of 79. He plays for the LA Galaxy and probably will give you two decent seasons in the career mode if you buy him. In 2014, he has scored 14 goals in the league in 23 appearances.
#3 Michael Bradley - Toronto FC
USA’s midfield dynamite Michael Bradley is considered as one of the best players in the United States national team at the moment and the 27 year old is only going to improve from here. Buy him and get at least five very good years out of him.
#2 Jermain Defoe - Toronto FC
English striker Jermain Defoe scored 11 goals in 16 matches in 2014 and is rated 80 in FIFA 15. There were some rumors that he might come back to England this season, but nothing materialised in the end and he stays put at Toronto FC.
#1 Clint Dempsey - Seattle Sounders
Hands down, the best player in the USA national team, and no wonder he is also their skipper. The 31 year old found the back of the net on 13 occassions in 21 matches and also has scored 39 times so far for his national side.
