The FIFA 22 player ratings for Newcastle United’s Allan Saint-Maximin and Joe Willock were revealed on social media today, and the duo were not too impressed with the ratings they’ve been given in FIFA 22. At first glance, neither of the players seemed impressed, with Willock seemingly more disappointed than his teammate.
Joe Willock said: “It’s alright, it’s alright. I would’ve given myself at least a 79 rating, but it’s alright.”
When asked what he thought of his new FIFA 22 rating, Saint-Maximin seemed relatively pleased at first, however after looking at his actual stats, the Frenchman then seemed disappointed with his new card.
Allan Saint-Maximin said: “It’s a nice card, yeah, it’s ok. Pace, Dribbling, shooting, not too good.”
When asked about his stats and what he thought they should’ve been, Saint-Maximin was especially displeased with his pace and dribbling, two aspects of his game he’s well known by.
Allan Saint-Maximin said: “94 [should be my pace]. Passing, I need more… I’m strong, so 61 [physical] is not too good.”
When Willock was asked about his card, he was animated in his response as he pleaded his desire for better stats.
Joe Willock said: “They need to upgrade that [dribbling], I think I’m at least an 80, 72 shooting. It’s crazy man, Yeah, [it should be] 80’s again”
Despite receiving upgrades on all of his card stats, Willock seemed displeased with his passing the most, with FIFA rating his passing at just 68 out of 99.
Joe Willock said: “They think I’m kicking it off the pitch every time I get the ball or what? What’s going on?!”
Nevertheless, Willock pledged to prove FIFA wrong this season as he looks to improve his 75-rating in time for FIFA 23.
Joe Willock said: “Yeah it should be a bit more, hopefully, I can do it [improve my rating] this season. Overall, I’m disappointed. FIFA, I’m disappointed in you, but I’m going to prove you wrong this season!”
