The list of confirmed Arsenal player ratings for FIFA 21 is now complete, so let’s take a look at all the officially confirmed ratings.
As usual, EA are slowly rolling out the FIFA player ratings to generate maximum hype. However, at this stage, we seem to have the entire senior squad – bar any late transfer window incomings.
Without further ado, here are those Arsenal player ratings for FIFA 21 so far:
We also have the rating for Dani Ceballos, who currently comes up as a Real Madrid player.

The overall rating change comes to +14 for Arsenal players, though the vast majority of that comes from the young players. Without the u21s you’re looking at a very negative rating change.
There are a few that stand out in a bad way. Despite ranking as Arsenal’s top performer, Aubameyang is still very underrated at just 87. Tierney should be hitting at least 80 and Xhaka getting a downgrade seems harsh given his performances in 2020.
Gabriel also looks like more than a 78-rated player on the pitch, but perhaps we just have to be patient with him and Tierney given they were so low-rated last season.
