The best Irish players on FIFA 17 have been revealed

Fifa 17 is released next week, and the best Irish footballers on the game have been revealed ahead of the launch.

Seamus Coleman is the highest rated Irish player on the game. The Everton full-back has an 82 rating, one ahead of his teammate James McCarthy. Robbie Keane may have retired from international football, but the 36-year-old LA Galaxy striker has an 80 rating, three ahead of Shane Long. Glenn Whelan is rated as the fifth-best Irish player on the game, and Stephen Ireland, (yes, he's still Irish and still a footballer, apparently) is in ninth place. Robbie Brady's heroics at Euro 2016 didn't earn him a move to the Premier League from Norwich City this summer, but it did secure him a place in the top ten of Irish players on the football simulation game. Jon Walters is ranked as Ireland's twelfth-best player on the game. Jeff Hendrick's rating seems peculiarly low. The Burnley midfielder has a mere 72 rating, despite his impressive displays at Euro 2016. [caption id="attachment_96261" align="alignnone" width="847"] Via FutHead.com.[/caption]
