# Aston Villa: Fans react to rumoured FIFA 22 ratings

**Rumours of four Aston Villa FIFA 22 ratings emerged on Tuesday evening from [The AVFC Faithful](https://twitter.com/AVFCFaithful_/status/1437888780292272136).**

And, as to be expected, a number of Villa fans have been reacting to the post on social media.

Official ratings are slowly being revealed ahead of the new game, with Paris Saint-Germain’s [Lionel Messi](https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/fifa/fifa-22/ratings) the highest-rated player in the game.

When it comes to Villa, [The AVFC Faithful](https://twitter.com/AVFCFaithful_/status/1437888780292272136) believe new signings Leon Bailey and Danny Ings will be 82 and 81 rated respectively, while Ollie Watkins will recieve a 78 card.

Emiliano Martinez is [expected](https://twitter.com/AVFCFaithful_/status/1437892567232827402) to be the club’s highest-rated player at 84, however, it is Watkins’ rating that has had a number of supporters talking.

The 25-year-old’s card was [76](https://www.futhead.com/21/players/1809/ollie-watkins/) in FIFA 21, meaning he has been given just a plus two upgrade despite being involved in [19](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ollie-watkins/leistungsdaten/spieler/324358/plus/0?saison=2020) Premier League goals last season.

Plenty of Villa fans responded to The AVFC Faithful’s FIFA 22 post, with one labelling Watkins’ rating as ‘disrespectful’.

**“Watkins scores 14 goals in the PL and gets an upgrade of 2? If that was Firmino his rating would be going up by 4 or 5 easily”**
