Cardiff City's FIFA 21 player ratings have today been confirmed in full, with each player's new FUT 21 rating revealed.
The Bluebirds' valuations have largely taken a big dive in this year's edition of the game, most likely due to the fact that last time it was released the club had just been playing in the Premier League.
But, after a season in the Championship, in which they narrowly missed out on the play-off final, City's players have seen their ratings dip.
This is how every player in the Bluebirds squad rates on FIFA 21 Ultimate Team.

CB: Flint – 71

CAM: Tomlin – 70
ST: Glatzel – 70
ST: Moore – 69
CDM: Bacuna – 68
CB: Nelson – 68
RW: Ojo – 67

The release has caused quite the stir on social media, with Bluebirds fans believing their players to have been given a harsh rating.
Eagle-eyed fans also noticed that, given Jordi Osei-Tutu's exploits on the right wing at Bochum last season, the game has assigned him to the right-midfield berth – meaning Cardiff have no natural right backs in the game.
Perhaps the biggest disappointment for some, though, was the rating of two players in particular; last year's Player of the Season Lee Tomlin and big summer signing and Wales international Kieffer Moore.
Tomlin has, in fact, been pushed up one from last year's rating, but Moore, whose reputation has skyrocketed over the last 18 months, has also been nudged up just one mark to 69.
Sol Bamba has seen his rating cut by four to 72, largely owing to his horrendous knee injury and lack of game time last year, while Robert Glatzel's rating has been slashed by three to 70 following his maiden Championship campaign.
FIFA 21 has an official UK and worldwide release date of October 9, 2020, but some editions will allow you to play the game slightly earlier than this.
