Player Review

So i was looking for my final 4th offensive player to complete my attack, with the other locks being Futties Rashford, TOTS Son 7chem & POTY Neymar

I was running a 4222 IG and searching for a wide CAM, having used my Red TOTS Firmino (good, but not great) for 200 games i had the coinage to get that last broken player

I went through TOTS Salah (not a fan, his 2* WF and lack of avoids weaker foot trait kills him now, his OTW was good when everyone had lesser teams) and TOTS Reus - great, but lacks the stamina i believe is required in WL at this stage in the game.

I was on the verge of saving that little more for TOTS Dybala until i snapped this man up for 345k.

One word : Monster.

PLEASE don't let my current PGP distract you, i used him for my FINAL 13 games of WL (1 RQ before i did anything), instantly he was up against the toughest of opponents and delivered 6 goals + 5 assists, that is not bad going at all

I won 12/13 games to finish with 35-5 overall in WL with him, trust me he played a crucial part. His performances IG were so good, he's absolutely everywhere and must be so annoying to face.

He even played RCM in the narrow 41212(2) when required, which is my next pro : he is so versatile depending on my opponent, it's fantastic. His aggression, High/High, decent defensive stats, max stamina, all brilliant.

Pace (agility/balance/reactions all super high), dribbling, just awesome. His touches with the ball CAN be slightly heavy sometimes but he's not bad, it's weird the way he's so small and tanky, you still feel in full control. When he's in tight space, he's frightening. So hard to contain.

Why's he hard to contain you ask? His physical. This seriously sets him apart from some competition for me, his strength and max aggression (i played him 7chem w/hawk) means he's so OP at holding the ball

His finishing, good Lord. I can already feel the power, his shot just goes in, maybe due to the high composure. He's so quick to make runs to score. He just finesses it with beautiful animations into the corner of that net, like only the classy players do. Ignore the 3* WF. I haven't had the chance to score long shots with him yet but you know he's capable of that with the long shot taker trait too.

Don't believe me? Cool. https://streamable.com/xw5q6

The only and i mean the ONLY con i will give him is his height, if he had height i'd fear for any man out there. I normally never like shorter played but this guy is a one off, he has everything you want. The physical is so rare with these players, just look at Messi who goes for 1m+ and doesn't have these stats.

All i can say if i haven't convinced you yet i never will, but you will have fun with this card. Although i believe he could play ST, i prefer height up there. So i'd recommend him at any CAM position, and like i say, he does a job as a third CM too.

I'd still consider TOTS Dybala but he's not as versatile, but i reckon only 97 Mbappe will beat him convincingly in every area overall, he looks like a joke. Which imo, makes Sanchez quite good value for a 97 rated PL player @ 350k (maybe he's risen to 400k as i speak, but i'm sure he'll fluctuate for now)
