Manchester United's fall from grace cannot necessarily be boiled down to simple statistics... but EA Sports have given it a good go.
Just two United stars make the grade in FIFA 20's top 100 players this year, with David de Gea and Paul Pogba the sole representatives from Old Trafford.
That is not necessarily a a surprise considering Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is prioritising youth at United this season, but the fact that Harry Maguire has not made the cut despite becoming the most expensive defender in the world may anger Red Devils fans a little.
EA confirmed its full top 100 on Friday, but their ratings will be held over until 3pm BST on Monday. The full game will be released on September 27 on PC, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.
Leaked versions of the ratings appeared on social media as interest in the game's release builds, with Lionel Messi apparently beating Cristiano Ronaldo to top spot.
