10 Best International teams in FIFA 14

Even though ready made world tournaments are not available in the game, you can still have your own custom made tournaments and we will guide you to identify the best International teams in FIFA 14 to attain success. Gamers would want to play their own version of the World Cup or an European Championship, or even the South American Championship. To go all the way, choose one among the following teams:

?10. Uruguay

Uruguay won the Copa America in 2011, you can replicate the success in FIFA 14

Best players – Edinson Cavani (87) and Luis Suarez (86)

If all you want to do is attack the opposition, then you got two of the best strikers in the game in the form of Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani to make good use of. The third choice striker is not bad either, as it’s the 2010 World Cup’s player of the tournament, Diego Forlan, who is rated 80 in the game. Uruguay’s best keeper Muslera is rated 82 and they have a couple of solid defenders in the form of Diego Godin and Caceras who are rated 83 and 80 respectively.

?9. Belgium 

Loads of potential in a single picture

Best Players – Vincent Kompany (86) and Eden Hazard (85)

A squad with plenty of potential that can make a name for itself in the coming years. Belgium’s players are not rated in the high 80’s but they all have that potential to reach such peaks in the future. This current squad has the ever reliable Vincent Kompany at the back teaming up with Vertonghen who is rated at 82. Behind them will be Thibaut Courtois who is rated 84. Then Eden Hazard leads the midfield line and will be joined by the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Maroune Fellaini and Kevin Mirallas among others. The two strikers Christian Benteke and Romelu Lukaku are rated only 79 and 77 respectively and that is why Belgium are at number 9 in this list.

?8. Netherlands 

If you are up against the Dutch, take Van Persie lightly at your own peril

Best players – Robin Van Persie (89) and Arjen Robben (88)

The Dutch have a pretty weak back four in the game with no player going past the 80 rating mark, but their firepower up front makes up for it. Wesley Sneijder might have lost his sting a bit in recent years, but he is still rated 84 in the game alongside Huntelaar. But the real threat comes from Arjen Robben and Robin Van Persie upfront as they are both rated in the high 80’s. The best rated Dutch keeper according to the game is Michel Vorm at 81.

?7. England

Good on paper and on the virtual world as well

Best players – Wayne Rooney (87) and Ashley Cole (85)

England are one among the seven teams that are rated 5 stars in the game. Joe Hart in front of goal has a rating of 83, and he will be followed by the game’s best left back Ashley Cole and two solid center-backs in the form of Terry (can still use in the game despite his international retirement) and Ferdinand. Midfield general Steven Gerrard is rated at 84 and the likes of Lampard, Milner, Wilshere are all rated in the lower 80’s. Wayne Rooney as always will be the key man when you pick England.

?6. France

Ribery and Benzema make a deadly duo in the game and can help you win matches with France

Best players – Frank Ribery (90) and Karim Benzema (85)

Their back four is solid despite all the players being rated in the low 80’s and their first choice keeper should be Hugo Lloris who is rated 84. Surprisingly Paul Pogba is rated only 79, but one can expect that to go up in the coming seasons. Ribery is the only player other than Ronaldo and Messi to be rated in the 90’s in the game and you can always use Karim Benzema up front. Samir Nasri is a must in the team despite his international retirement. 

?5. Brazil

A good squad, but not good enough to crack the top 3

Best players – Thiago Silva (87) and Neymar (84)

Forget about how Brazil play in reality, you should make a few tweaks in order to get the best out of the squad that’s present in FIFA 14. Neymar should be played up front as the sole striker with Willian on the left since he is marked as a left winger in the game and he is rated 83. Hulk with a rating of 84 should play on the right. Many of you would play Oscar as the CAM, but no, you should be looking to deploy Diego over there since he has a higher rating than that of Oscar. Thiago Silva leads the backline alongwith Dante, Marcelo and Daniel Alves.

?4. Italy

Age no bar for Buffon and Pirlo as they are both rated highly in the game

Best players –   Andrea Pirlo, Gianluigi Buffon, Georgio Chellini (all rated 86)

If you are someone who likes to play with a team which is defensive in nature and loves taking pace out of the game, then do not look beyond Italy. They usually deploy only three at the back with Pirlo controlling the game ahead of them and that is exactly how one should play with them in order to make use of their vast midfield talent. Claudio Marchisio, Ricardo Montolivo and Daniele De Rossi are all rated 84 in the game and in front of them the two strikers should be Di Natale and Mario Balotelli, both rated 84. 

?3. Argentina

FIFA 14’s biggest attacking threat comes in the form of Argentina

Best players – Lionel Messi (94) and Sergio Aguero (88)

Wilfredo Caballero is the best Argentine keeper in the game with a rating of 79, and none of their defenders are rated even close to 85, so what makes Argentina occupy the third spot then? It’s all about their attacking prowess which is better than every other team in the game. They like using three men up front and that’s exactly what the gamers should be doing as well. Make use of Carlos Tevez as the striker since he is rated 86, and then use Aguero on the left and Messi ( the game’s highest rated player) on the right. Not to forget Angel Di Maria who should also be starting with a rating of 86. Usage of Mascherano is very important as he is highly rated at 84 and can play as a CB or a CDM as well.

?2. Germany

Schweinsteiger is Germany’s best player according to FIFA 14

Best players – Bastian Schweinsteiger (88) and Mesut Ozil (87)

A team full of champions, right from the striker to the keeper, you got all bases covered with Germany. Mario Gomez is nowhere to be seen these days but he should be leading the attack with a rating of 86. And then you have the likes of Ozil, Muller and Reus behind him with all three rated above 85. Manuel Neuer with 86 will be protecting the goal. And then comes Lahm (highest rated right back in the game) and Hummels. In the entire line-up you will be having eight players who will be rated 85 or above.

?1. Spain

You can definitely recreate the same scene if you pick and play with Spain

Best players – Andres Iniesta and Xavi (both rated 89)

Was this ever in doubt? Just take a look at the ratings of some of these players, and in fact you might have to keep Juan Mata who is rated 87 on the bench. The keeper Casillas alongside the center-backs Pique and Ramos are all rated at 86. Moving to the midfield, David Silva is a must with a rating of 88, and you have the ultimate pass masters in the form of Xavi and Iniesta. The choice is yours when it comes to choosing the striker, as you can either have Diego Costa or even Fabregas as a false nine. Ultimately this team will make things easier for you.
