CRISTIANO RONALDO has been ranked number one in FIFA18 ratings, on the back of leading Portugal to Euro 2016 victory and Real Madrid to become champions of Europe.
Many fans were disgruntled that he beat Lionel Messi, yet few have jumped to the defence of the man who set PSG back £200million this summer occupying third place.
EA Sports revealed their top rated players this evening and the players that occupy the top three positions will not come as a surprise, as they're also the ones demanding the big bucks.
Just one Ialian, French and English club lay claim to a player in the top ten rankings, whereas Real Madrid boast the most with three players sitting comfortably in the top ten.
European talent makes up six out of the ten spots, while players from South America fill the remaining four.
EA Sports were hounded on twitter with many shocked to see Ronaldo occupying top spot, despite winning the Uefa Best Player in Eruope just one month ago.
Since 2008 both Ronaldo and Messi have vied for the Ballon d'Or and fans argued that it was Messi that should be sitting ahead of him and that the rating should not be down to the trophies that Ronaldo helped his club and country win.
