Is Cristiano Ronaldo the best player in FIFA 19? Not only the base values of the CR7 card say yes: No other player hits the net as consistently as Ronaldo.
This is what the goal statistics say: On the FIFA site futbin you can access the “Players Game Performance”. This statistic collects all kinds of data. For example, the total number of matches in which the football stars have been used by FIFA players, along with cards, assists, and of course goals.
The best striker in the game: Patrick Hoban?!
This player has the best goal ratio: Looking at the goal ratios, which is the average number of goals per game, a rather unknown name stands at the top: Patrick Hoban from Dundalk FC. The striker rated 76 in the first Irish league scores an average of 2.6 times per game – so is he the best attacker in the game?
This is why Hoban is not the most successful striker in FIFA 19: No, Patrick Hoban is not the best striker in the game. Because Hoban has only been used 1,467 times – this number is statistically negligible. Regularly used players tend to have several million uses. Most strikers who score more than one goal have not even been used 1000 times – only two strikers fall out of this statistic.
Ronaldo, the goal machine
This is the most successful striker in FIFA 19: The first of the two top strikers in FIFA 19 is the 94-rated Icon version of Ronaldo – the Brazilian Ronaldo. However, the striker has only been used 118,276 times in total. A number that is also small compared to the millions of uses of other players.
Cristiano Ronaldo, in his base form, was used 2,696,025 times – scoring an average of 1.019 goals per game. No wonder that one starts to tremble immediately when the opponent has CR7 on their team: The Juventus Turin forward is hard to defend.
These are Ronaldo’s values
Ronaldo, the top player: This card should now be well-known to every FIFA player: The base card of Ronaldo excels in all areas (except perhaps in defense). It is no coincidence that Ronaldo was early on the number one in the Top 100 FIFA players.
The striker is dangerous in every situation: With Ronaldo, you can counter quickly, he wins most aerial duels, has perfect long shots in his repertoire, and is also a good choice for free kicks.
The fact that this Ronaldo card has the highest rating to date may be due to the fact that the Inform versions are significantly more expensive and thus less common. The base form is currently around 2,430,000 coins, while the Champions League card costs around 3 million. Such cards require an extremely high number of coins – with league SBCs you can at least save part of it.
How the other players perform
Who could pose a threat to Ronaldo? Are there any players currently who could match Ronaldo’s goal ratio? It doesn’t look like it at the moment. Gabriel Jesus, with currently just under 12,000,000 uses, is the attacker with the most matches, but has only a goal ratio of 0.56. The same applies to Kylian Mbappé, the fastest player in the game: 11.3 million uses, 0.55 goals per game.
This is Messi’s score: The eternal rival of Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, currently stands at about 3.6 million uses – so a good million more than Ronaldo, which may also be due to the price: Messi currently costs only one million. On average, Messi scores 0.74 goals. It is unlikely that this will suddenly increase. However, it is quite possible that Ronaldo’s score will worsen with more games.
