Liverpool squad given MAJOR FIFA 19 upgrade in latest ratings update

Liverpool have been in fine form recently.

In fact, they haven't lost a single game in all competitions since early January, as they mount an assault on the Premier League and the Champions League.

Their latest win, a 2-1 victory over Tottenham, means they remain firmly in contention for the league title this season, after Hugo Lloris' late blunder secured the win.

EA Sports have now reviewed the Liverpool squad on FIFA 19 and decided that a number of players need upgrades.

Here is the latest upgrades to the Liverpool squad on FIFA 19 as of March 28, 2019.

Sadio Mane - Upgrade

Mane has been incredible in recent weeks and one of the main reasons behind Liverpool's dominant form.

He's been given a huge upgrade on FIFA 19.

The Senegalese forward's heading accuracy (65-74), jumping (77-80), long shots (76-77), positioning (88-89) and reactions (86-89) have all been significantly upgraded in-game.

Fabinho - Upgrade

Fabinho's impact on the Liverpool team can't be understated, and is arguably the club's most talented midfielder.

His long passing as been upgraded on FIFA 19, moving up from 80 to 82.

Andy Robertson - Upgrade

Has there been a better left-back in the Premier League than Robertson?

FIFA 19 have given him a big upgrade.

The Scotland international's ball control (78-79), curve (74-76), dribbling (76-77), interceptions (81-82), sliding tackle (78-80) and vision (74-76) have all been boosted.

Trent Alexander-Arnold - Upgrade

Last but by no means least, Alexander-Arnold has been given the biggest upgrade of all on FIFA 19.

His ball control (76-77), composure (74-75), interceptions (76-78), short passing (77-78) and vision (72-74) have all been increased.

This has also meant an increase in his overall rating, it's gone up from 79 to 80 overall.
