Z Rating: Find The Best Players In FIFA 13 Ultimate Team!

Ever bought a player that you thought was going to be great based on their overall (OVR) FUT rating but turned out to be a flop on the pitch? We all know that FUT's overall rating can be a bit misleading at times so who are really the best players in FIFA 13 Ultimate Team?
Use the Z Rating to find out!
I found the overall rating system FIFA used was a little misleading sometimes, and that players were "praised" for having a high attribute rating for things that weren't important for their position. This made it difficult to find the true best players in FIFA 13 Ultimate Team.

Clubhouse – View From The Wine Cellar

I've been heavily involved with FIFA Clubs since this beloved mode was first created with plenty of highs & lows during my tenure as a co owner of the biggest FIFA Club website and EA FIFA UK Game Changer. Since stepping down recently I solely playing clubs most evenings as a social Club player with friends. I recently started writing a blog about FIFA Clubs, nothing too serious more of a relaxed view with a dollop of adult humour for good measure. Now for the serious stuff. I've always felt Clubs had massive potential right from the off, but with the emergence of Ultimate Team, which has certainly changed the landscape regarding Clubs & Virtual Pro’s, it hasn't progressed as much as I had first thought and only time will tell if FIFA 13 Clubs can close the gap with Ultimate Team in terms of resources and development.
