Is he any good?

Renato Sanches, is he any good?

First of all I used him as a ZDM (backbone) and ZOM (Deadeye). Basically I wanted to find out if he could beat Leon Goretzka and become a part of my first team.

Right now I have to say he cannot. He is great no question but not that great at all. The first time I look at his card I was absolutely amazed but when you see all of his stats you will see he can do everything but really nothing.

He feels slower than 81 especially when you try to start a counter attack. I guess its cause of his low reaction. I mean its not that low but just not good enough for me.

His passes sometimes are brilliant but when he is in danger to lose the ball to an opposite player 8/10 of his passes will miss. This is a mayor problem. He is no use in your offense if your opponent adjusts pressure.

Physics are great no question. He wins most of his headers but he cannot score from them. His aggression paired with his H/H Workrates makes him push against every player on the field. Even if you want him to stay back while attacking he will be there to attack and he will run back to fight for the ball. He feels like a dog chasing his ball. Also he cannot play one position. Sometimes you'll find him playing LB or even ST but actually he should be a stay back ZDM..

So is he any good? Can he be my new better Goretzka?

Not for now. Goretzka feels way more balanced and self confident. You won't be able to play passes with Sanches as you could do with Goretzka, their shooting feels equal, Goretzka feels faster, Sanches feels a bit stronger... all in all I would go with Goretzka.

This Sanches will get his Upgrades but the first possible will be in 3 weeks the second right before Christmas and maybe with an 83 Rating Sanches good be as good as Goretzka but I don't think he will do better at that time. And still! Bayern needs to win and right now trust me.. if they get to play against any teem better than Ajax the chance of losing is high!

Kante with long shots

I've based my stat review on Sanches with a Shadow chem. I packed Sanches last night and then started playing WL. I've now played all 30 of my WL games with him at LCM in 4-3-2-1 and finished Elite 2. The card is unreal. I play him in a midfield paired with the dynamic CL fabinho and standard CL Fernandinho. He is an unreal player! 100% worth adding to your squad. He is like Kante with strength, aggression and some crazy ti...

Mr. everywhere!

I`m gonna begin this review saying the obvious for every Renato Sanchez user that I ever met, BUY THIS DREAD GUY!!!!He is fast, he is strong, he has blond dreads, he is TOTALLY complete.I use him in a 4321 with 3 CAM as a CDM alongside with Goretzka IF and he delivers all that you need in a CDM. He is everywhere in the field, in both sides, and he can tackle everyone with fantastic ease a...

Renato Sanches

Very solid

This card at its base 81 is not a world beater. It is however extremely solid as a box to box CM. As long as you do not expect too many goals. I expect as Bayern progress this card could become something special.
