CENTRAL THREAT: Messi picked up several FUT 21 special cards in the CF position

However, the Argentine played the majority of the 2020/21 season with Barcelona as a free-moving central attacker.

Messi also picked up a number of performance-based special cards as either a Centre Forward or Striker in FIFA 21.

So, we think that EA will change Messi's position in FIFA 22 to a Centre Forward (CF).

We believe that Ronaldo will once again be rated 92 OVR.

The Portuguese legend was the league's top goalscorer despite his side not dominating as they have been used to in recent years.

After a record-breaking season, Robert Lewandowski must surely now be ranked among the very best in the world when the FIFA 22 ratings are released.
