The 31-year-old playmaker is now <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jesse-lingard-treated-rock-star-ex-man-utd-forward-mobbed-fans-south-korea-injury-lack-game-time-fc-seoul/blte85bfd04a738cdba " target="_blank">plying his trade in South Korea for FC Seoul</a>, having headed to the Far East in February after <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/just-gonna-fck-about-gym-jesse-lingard-brutal-message-man-utd-legend-paul-scholes-seventh-month-free-agent/bltb0c3c8875c0fd0cc " target="_blank">spending several months as a free agent</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

An early injury stunted his progress in Seoul, but the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/video-captain-jesse-lingard-goal-fc-seoul--ex-man-utd-lighting-it-up-in-south-korea-classy-left-footed-strike/blt1e0eada5d7b1ea25 " target="_blank">goals have started to flow for Lingard of late</a>. His efforts have seemingly not been enough to catch the eye of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/ea-sports-fc-25-release-date-price/bltf986ce171b0ae3a3" target="_blank">gaming manufacturers</a>, with the ex-Red Devils midfielder not even the highest-rated player at his club.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Lingard could make peace with that, as he looks to rebuild his career and reputation, but he is fuming to discover that his pace score is lower than that of defensive team-mates. Lingard has posted on Instagram, alongside a screenshot of FC Seoul’s top-rated stars: “Nah FIFA we need to talk, asap! Defender quicker?”<picture><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltee56f05b8e30e99b/lingard%20ea%20fc.jpg?format=webp" type="image/webp"><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltee56f05b8e30e99b/lingard%20ea%20fc.jpg?format=jpg" type="image/jpeg"><img src="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltee56f05b8e30e99b/lingard%20ea%20fc.jpg?format=jpg" alt="Jesse Lingard EA FC 25 rating" data-source="Instagram" data-copyright="Instagram" data-portal-copyright="Instagram" perform:prop="uuid:bltee56f05b8e30e99b;width:460;height:631"></picture>

WHAT LINGARD SAID

Lingard, who has 32 senior international caps to his name, is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/bad-card-lamine-yamal-not-happy-ea-sports-fc-25-rating-barcelona-wonderkid-explains-what-needs-change/blt0083684b74a360d4 " target="_blank">far from being the only player to air disappointment at their EA FC grades</a>. Even the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are heading backwards, with Erling Haaland, Rodri, Kylian Mbappe and Aitana Bonmati <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ea-sports-fc-25-ratings-best-players/bltfed202799aa11fe6 " target="_blank">topping the charts with overall ratings of 91</a>.
