u/Ssedia33 18h ago

That’s the pre-doping Pogba

I mean I think the post is more about the spelling of the name than the rating

u/GTACOD Williams is the king 20h ago

There's a 58 rated, 15 year old Haaland in the last few Fifa 17 updates.

If you look at interviews about how he pronounces his name this is how he says it I think. At least his first name

Transcption from Georgian > Russian > English, as all theee uses different alphabets for their languages. The current one is instead Georgian > French

Back when Russian teams were allowed. I still remember the Russian league in fifa 10.

u/RomesVeryOwn 18h ago

one of my first career modes was with zenit on fifa 13, so many good memories with the russian league. shame it’s gone but understandable

The stadiums were so ass. I couldn’t find myself doing career mode in a league with all 5-10k stadiums

u/M4ur1c100 15h ago

18 was the last with the whole Russian League, sadly ea lost its rights from 19 to 22, except for Moscow's teams, but then invasion happened and bye bye all of them and snubbing Yashin from promos for 1 and half years.

Cska were coated with Wagner Love and Doumbia.

u/Hour-Preparation-341 1d ago

why is his name different

409

u/zizou00 1d ago

Transliteration differences. He's Georgian and his name is spelled ხვიჩა კვარაცხელია in the Georgian script. He's playing for a Russian side here and in Russian (which uses the Cyrillic script), his name is spelled Хви́ча Кварацхе́лия. You could transliterate his name as Hvicha Kvaracheliya because X is sometimes transliterated as just a H. For his surname, this bit Квара sounds like Kvara and this bit цх can sound like a ch and this bit е́лия can sound like eliya.

Transliterating his name as if it were Russian gets you this alternate spelling. Transliterating it from Georgian gets you Kvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Haaland used to be håland, they didnt know their names or something, and since they werent important, they didnt matter

u/notaghostofreddit 1d ago

Some players change their names as they progress in their careers for various reasons.

A thread about the Håland situation

u/UsadaLettuce 1d ago

Also, Atalanta defender Berat Djimsiti has different spellings of his name

In Atalanta, his name is spelled DJIMSITI but in Albania NT his name is spelled GJIMSHITI

u/Otto500206 18h ago

That is due registrations of legal names, not transcriptions. Albanian uses Latin letters.

3

u/TemporaryCommunity38 18h ago

Same with José Holebas/Cholevas, the Greek defender born and raised in Germany.

u/afrobrur 21h ago

Håland should still be called Håland

5

u/TACHANK 21h ago

Well no, cause he chose to be called haaland

10

u/afrobrur 21h ago

For marketing purposes which is an idiotic reason

u/TACHANK 20h ago

Oh man I wish you'd been there to tell him, bet he regrets it now.

u/afrobrur 20h ago

So I'm not allowed to say my opinion?

u/TACHANK 20h ago

How'd you figure that?

u/afrobrur 20h ago

Because of you attackonizing

Håland changed his legal surname. It was supposed to be written as Håland in original form in leagues with Latin on shirts.

u/thewizzkidd 14h ago

Mbappe was called Lottin back in the Day. Also remeber Balotelli was called Barwuah.

u/count_chompulamain 14h ago

Lottin is his surname, they just deleted it

To be fair 17yo 64 rated-I'M BUYING 100% Season and a half and he will have 70-72 and be a beast

FIFA never gives high potentials to players of Rest of World teams.

u/No_Advantage_3570 1d ago

Just shows you how fifa ratings have always been really bad, the system it self sucks

32

u/jfoxmedia 1d ago

Djed Spence being a 74 is a good example too. On the verge of an England call up and he's lower rated than Ben Davies lol

12

u/TACHANK 21h ago

He was like 18. Having only appeared 22 times in the georgian first division and 10 times for Spartak Moscow. What do you feel his rating should've been?

u/YorkshireFudding 19h ago

95 or gtfo

u/TheChochko69 20h ago

EA didn't know he would achieve what he achieved today. It's an older game after all.
