"Hello police, I'd like to report a crime please."

Fifa 18 hasn't even been released yet and it is already causing arguments amongst football fans. The massively popular video game returns with a new edition on September 29, and the ratings for the top 100 players on the game are been teased out. Here's best players on the game, from number 100 to 81:
100. Bernardo Silva (Man City), 99. Sami Khedira (Juventus), 98. Sadio Mane (Liverpool), 97. Dani Alves (PSG), 96. Marco Asensio (Real Madrid), 95. Radamel Falcao (Monaco), 94. Mauro Icardi (Inter Milan), 93. Dele Alli (Spurs), 92. Bernd Leno (Bayer Leverkusen), 91. Claudio Marchisio (Juventus), 90. Stephane Ruffier (St Etienne). 89. Ilkay Gundogan (Man City), 88. Danijel Subasic (Monaco), 87. Raphael Varane (Real Madrid), 86. Kamil Glik (Monaco), 85. Andrea Barzagli (Juventus), 84. Vincent Kompany (Man City), 83. Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Man Utd), 82. Yannick Carrasco (Atletico Madrid), 81. Marc-Andre ter Stegen (Barcelona).

The Senegalese forward, who had an excellent season last year and has started this campaign in flying form, is rated at 84 out of 100 on Fifa 18, up from 79 on Fifa 17. https://twitter.com/AnythingLFC_/status/905340207641317376 According to quite a few Liverpool fans on social media, Mane should be rated higher, and certainly above Henrikh Mkhitaryan. The Manchester United forward had an encouraging first season in the Premier League, scoring 11 times in all competitions as Jose Mourinho's team won the Europa League and the League Cup. However, he was arguably outperformed by Mane, who became one of Liverpool's most important players, scoring 13 goals in 27 league games. https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_UK/status/899721224250589184 Either way, both have started this season in excellent form, and are worthy of their place in the top 100 of the game's players. Mkhitaryan is also rated at 85, just one point above Mane. Vincent Kompany, who has struggled for game time over the past few seasons due to fitness and injury issues, being rated above Mane is arguably more noteworthy. However, Liverpool fan took issue with Mkhitaryan being rated as a better player than Mane. https://twitter.com/SquawkaNews/status/905117027366559744   https://twitter.com/wutangklavan/status/905117942513270784 https://twitter.com/Eti_Lad/status/905372471192375296 https://twitter.com/RealBobHodson/status/905354776380133381 https://twitter.com/michaelbrian__/status/905409409249136641 https://twitter.com/OneFootValencia/status/905120844497727488 https://twitter.com/AnfieldEdition/status/905156851767148544 https://twitter.com/ClassicCantona/status/905121983142268928 https://twitter.com/JamesBrownlee4/status/905187027548819457
