Felipe Anderson’s FIFA 20 ratings have been leaked and it’s fair to say they’ve caused quite a bit of outrage amongst some West Ham United fans.
There’s plenty of excitement around this time of year when the latest edition of the franchise is just around the corner and keen gamers are looking forward to representing the club with updated players and features.
These supporters aren’t best pleased with FIFA for downgrading Anderson’s base ratings, despite leaving his overall rating the same…
Twitter: I don’t normally care about FIFA ratings, but this is ludicrous!
He has just had a great season, and yet FIFA have… https://t.co/NQIfw6Ea1V (@WHUFC_News_6)

Twitter: @WHUFC_News_6 Mate fifa are clueless. They’ll automatically stick a player on 79 when they come to West Ham. Probably have luke shaw at 83 (@Denner7s)

At the end of the day, it’s a rating on a video game so to see so much outrage is fairly baffling, especially considering he’s set to be the club’s highest-rated player.
However, Anderson is considered to be one of the Hammers’ better players and he enjoyed a good debut season at the London Stadium, so it’s strange to see no improvements have been made on his in-game persona.
If the Brazilian can continue performing on the pitch – in real life – it’s highly likely the same supporters will forget about their current disappointment.
