These are my predictions for the Arsenal player ratings in Fifa 12. (This is assuming all of our players stay and we don't buy anymore.) GK: Almunia-73 GK: Fabianski-79 GK: Szczesny-80 RB: Jenkinson-77 RB: Sagna-85 (IMO he is our best defender. Yes, better than Vermaelen.) RB: Eboue-75 CB: Vermaelen-84 CB: Djourou-80 CB: Koscielny-79 CB: Squillaci-76 LB: Gibbs-78 LB: Traore-75 CDM: Song-83 CDM: Frimpong-78 CDM: Eastmond-70 CM: Wilshere-80-85 (Not really sure what they'll give him...) CM: Diaby-80 CM: Lansbury-75 CAM: Rosicky-79 CAM: Fabregas-86 CAM: Nasri-85 CAM: Ramsey-79-82 (Not sure about him either...) LW: Arshavin-82 LW: Miyachi-77 RW: Walcott-81 ST: Walcott-82 (I think he'll be better as a striker.) ST: Bendtner-78 ST: Chamakh-81 ST: Gervinho-83 ST: Vela-79 ST: van Persie-86 On Loan: CM: Denilson-75 ST: Wellington-70 Please leave your thoughts/ your ratings in the comments!
Wilshere might be a little higher than what you said. He's on the cover after all. They might overrate him all the way to an 89 or something.
My best mate who I always play FIFA against is an Arsenal supporter. He recons Szczesny will be at least an 84. The rest of your ratings will probably be fairly accurate.
SZCZ won't be 84. He'll more likely be around 80. Miyaichi won't be anywhere near 77. He'll be lucky to make it to the 70's.
Team Wilshere {http://www.facebook.com/pages/Team-Wilshere/206167919424008} went on to say: "FIFA 12 ratings get released same time as the premier league fixtures do. That doesn't mean his rating can't change over the next 3/4 months until the game is actually released. But his overall rating is 86. The attributes that were improved the most compared to FIFA 11 are; strength, agression (even though its quite high anyway), speed and heading. Ratings are based on current seasons. Wouldn't you agree, Jack has had an amazing season. Just a little reminder - PFA Young Player of the year. I can't tell you my source, then you could all have a look and it would ruin the suprise when you get the game. Also, it breaks the TOS I have to follow at FIFA. I test FIFA for PS3. Me and about 23 others, test everything possible. Its my job to test each player in the arena. Pretty boring after a while, but I can tell you now, the first player I tested in the arena, was Jack. You can tell a big difference straight away." Dunno how true that is as it'll make Wilshere one of the best players in the world, and the best under 21 on fifa ever!
Jack is 86? Surely that's a bit high. Sneijder was 86 in the last game. Kaka, Nasri and Schweinsteiger are 85.
We hittin bitches like Lowe's be hittin switches, 16 at a time Times that behind with me down we lose and find X style the night that they mind we ? the times With renegades prowling this bitch with braids Leather gloves with dark shades and sowed off day Reminiscing the Cleo, she go to living life flawless Who the boss, you know this Who the GOD, who fawlging Hit me im giving niggas 1 to 3 Y'all need 1 to 3 hours to accomplish what we have built here You nigga know this is me here
We tuckin away the chrome and humpin up on some hoes We dem niggas you love to hate...I know Who cares I been blowin your bitch back out for years Plus she shared so many tears for me While you was away, was around the time I made "Put It On Me" So homie, stay from 'round here you aint know, this is me here I'm cockin back, I got an idea

Think you're being a little optimistic. GK: Almunia-73 GK: Fabianski-74 GK: Szczesny-79 RB: Jenkinson-74 (Compare to the ratings given to Rafael, Kelly etc). RB: Sagna-83 (Only two right backs will approach the >85 mark, Ramos and Alves. It's just how the game seems to work). RB: Eboue-75 CB: Vermaelen-83 (Same as last season, hasn't improved). CB: Djourou-80 CB: Koscielny-79 CB: Squillaci-76 LB: Gibbs-76 LB: Traore-73 (Hasn't improved). CDM: Song-81 (The only CDM's with high ratings will be the usual Cambiasso, Masch, De Rossi...). CDM: Frimpong-76 CDM: Eastmond-70 CM: Wilshere-82 (Seems reasonable. Not good enough shooting to approach the 85 mark). CM: Diaby-78 CM: Lansbury-74 CAM: Rosicky-77 CAM: Fabregas-85 CAM: Nasri-85 CAM: Ramsey-79 LW: Arshavin-82 (Seems fair. 86 was far, far too high last season). LW: Miyachi-77 RW: Walcott-81 ST: Walcott-82 ST: Bendtner-78 (If he moves this will go down). ST: Chamakh-81 ST: Gervinho-82 ST: Vela-77 ST: van Persie-85 (V. good but it's likely only Villa, Eto and so on will be over 85). In miscellaneous others, hopefully realistic ratings will be given to Torres (83), Drogba (84), Bale (82) and so on. So many players are horribly over-rated based on reputation. As a Liverpool fan, hopefully Suarez will be significantly upgraded, along with Kelly (77-79 seems reasonable) and Lucas (must be over 80). On Loan: CM: Denilson-75 ST: Wellington-70
Also expect to see Rio Ferdinand achieve his usual ridiculous 85 rating, Hernandez will probably be 84 or so too

I don't think Chamakh is a 74! He did well for us the beginning of the season and van Persie did even better in the later half. Their ratings shouldn't be too far apart! As much as we would love for van Persie to have that sort of rating, there is no way that Fifa would give such a high rating to someone relatively unknown. They only give that kinda ratings to the "more famous" players (CR7, Rooney, Torres, anyone in Barcelona etc.).
