#10 Jan Oblak (Atletico Madrid) - 88

Jan Oblak

The Slovenian is regarded as one of the best shot-stoppers in the world and his numbers present a rosy picture. His handling of 90 and position of 87 puts him right up there with the very best and at just 24 years of age, he has a bright future ahead of him.

He has seen an overall one-point upgrade from the previous edition of the game as well, highlighting his excellent form last season.

#9 Diego Godin (Atletico Madrid) - 88

Diego Godin

Next up in the list is another Atletico star, this time in the form of Diego Godin, who is one heck of a defender. The Uruguayan has shown his class over the last few seasons for Atleti and his rating of 88 is a clear reflection of his abilities.

The 31-year-old has seen no change from the last season in his overall rating, which was also 88 in FIFA 17. However, he gets a bump of one point in his dribbling and a reduction in physicality.

#8 Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid) - 88

Antoine Griezmann

Another Atletico man is a part of the Top 10 and after their keeper and centre-back, it's Atleti's main striker Antoine Griezmann who features on the list. Blessed with a peach of a left foot, the forward is easily one of the best in the business.

His overall rating of 88 is the same as FIFA 17 and so are five out of his six stats, which remain stationary. The only change is in his physicality number, which has gone up by the one point.

#7 Gareth Bale (Real Madrid) - 89

Gareth Bale

The former Southampton and Tottenham Hotspurs man is now one of the biggest names in the Spanish top division and like Griezmann, has a wand of a left foot. His 2016-17 was not ideal, to say the least, and as a result, he has received a drop in his overall rating.

However, his key six stats remain the same as FIFA 17, with a blistering 94 pace, an 86 dribbling score and a whopping 87 shooting.

#6 Luka Modric (Real Madrid) - 89

Luka Modric

After Bale, it's a former Spurs teammate of his who joins him on the list. Luka Modric, who turns 32 this year, is one of the finest players in the world in his position and his rating of 89 does justice to it quite well.

A staggering 89 for dribbling and 86 passing makes him a real prize in the middle but his pace and physicality have seen a one-point drop from FIFA 17.

#5 Toni Kroos (Real Madrid) - 90

Toni Kroos

As we now enter the 90s, up next is another Los Blancos man in the form of German midfielder Toni Kroos, who is widely considered to be the best dentral midfielder in the world at the moment.

A World Cup winner in 2016, he has seen a sharp two-point rise in his overall rating, which shows the kind of season he had. While his pace has gone up by a whopping five points, it remains a bit on the slower side at 50. However, his 88 passing and 81 shooting more than make up for it.

#4 Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid) - 90

Sergio Ramos

The best defender in the world and in FIFA 18, Sergio Ramos is the fourth consecutive Real Madrid man on this list. His strength, versatility and ball-playing abilities are all top-notch, coupled with his knack of finding the back of the net.

The Spaniard has seen a rise in his overall rating from FIFA 17, with improved dribbling, defending and passing numbers. However, his pace has seen a two-point drop from 78 to 76.

#3 Luis Suarez (FC Barcelona) - 92

Luis Suarez

The next member of the La Liga Top 10 club is none other than former Liverpool man Luis Suarez, who makes it into the top three of this list with a rating of 92. The Uruguayan, who turned 30 this year, is deadly in front of goal and his finishing skills are second to none.

His stats are extremely well-rounded and he has a strong burst of pace, deadly accuracy with his shooting, brilliant dribbling ability and is hard to shake off as well. What more could you ask for from your number 9?

#2 Lionel Messi (FC Barcelona) - 93

Lionel Messi

We enter the creme-de-la-creme of the FIFA 18 and the world of football and taking second place is none other than Lionel Messi. A four-time Ballon D'Or winner, Messi's supreme abilities are beyond all doubt and are reflected in his insane numbers.

A 95 dribbling rating, which has gone down one point from FIFA 17, coupled with 89 pace, 90 shooting and 86 passing are simply out of this world.

#1 Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid) - 94

Cristiano Ronaldo

And finally, we have the one and only Cristiano Ronaldo, who at a rating 94, stands all alone at the top of the charts in the game as well as La Liga. The Portuguese superstar has some unbelievable numbers, with his overall rating still the same from FIFA 17.

His pace and dribbling have gone down by two and one points respectively but his shooting attribute has seen a one-point raise from the previous edition. The cover star for this year's game, Ronaldo is the undisputed number one in FIFA 18!
