Trent vs James vs Cancelo: The winner across every FIFA 23 in-game attribute | OneFootball

Football can bring us so many endless debates.

Some have been discussed for decades, like wondering who is the best between some of football’s all-time greats, while others take two current top stars from the same position and argue about who is better.

A popular discussion the past few years has been at right-back.

Currently, the Premier League is blessed with some serious talent in the position and comparisons are often made between Trent Alexander-Arnold, Reece James and Joao Cancelo.

It’s a debate where you can make a strong argument for either of the three, but EA Sports’ yearly FIFA ratings are an easy way to quickly compare elements of their abilities.

So, let’s take a look at how the three match up in terms of their respective ratings for each gameplay stat in the new FIFA 23 game.

Cancelo bests Trent & James in FIFA 23

It seems that EA Sports believe Manchester City’s Cancelo is the better of the three right-backs.

Some stats are incredibly close, with just one or two points separating the players on some categories, but overall Cancelo won double the amount of categories than Trent did in second place.

The debate is ongoing between fans and it’s likely to never reach a conclusion, but EA Sports have weighed in quite largely in favour of the Portuguese star.
