84 - UCL LIVE
5.0
Kante with long shots
By Yuxol, 10-11-2018

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 timed long shots. So far he's played 30 games, scored 11 and assisted 9 - not bad for a CM. The guys WR makes it so hard for people to stop him, he just doesn't stop. I'd definitely recommend changing his position instruction to free roam.

Mr. everywhere!
By Conradations, 11-02-2019

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 and when he is outside de box he can shoot very eficient. I have a team that coasts 360k, he worths in the time that I write this review 234k so you can see that he is very important on my team, and can be very importante in yours too.


P.S- and he can be upgraded if Bayern continues on champions league, it`s unbelievable.


PACE - His pace is great for a CDM, so you don`t need to improve it with chem styles (or need, depends on your need of speed in the midfield)


PHYSICAL - His stamina (93), Strenght (82), Jumping (85) and Agression (93) is amazing, it`s very dificult for any attacker to pass trought him and he reaches everyone very fast


PASS - once I put a Powerhouse chem on him, his passing feels like Kroos TOTY, but even without boosting his passing skills he does the job really well


LONG SHOTS - 86 long shots 95 shoot power, dont`t be afraid, just shoot and let the goalkeeper make the miracle


DRIBLING - with 81 agility and 90 balance you can control the midfield with him.

  2. Pace
  3. Physical
  4. Pass
  5. Long shots
  6. Dribling
  7. 4* weak foot

  1. Maybe his finish, but come on, he is a CDM (or CM)
  2. 3* Skill (I don`t know how to drible haha)
  3. Size
  4. Price, 235k is quite a lot of money, but worths every coin.

Very solid
By ZackkFairr, 12-11-2018

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.

Pace - Nice pace for a CM. Feels fast.

Stamina - as a H/H CM he needs stamina. 90 is not bad for this card at all.

Physical - Good jumping and aggression. Decent strength too. Very solid.

Dribbling - Very solid dribbling for a CM. Good at starting attacks.

Short passing - Very nice short passing. Passes always go to feet.

Defending - very solid defending as a CM.

Shooting - Due to his composure his shooting is wild. If you do not rely on goals from CM this doesnt matter. He can score but it is not the best.

Long passing and crossing - His long passing and crossing is pretty poor. Over the tops aren't the worse but he doesn't match up. Crossing is poor so as a RCM in a 4-1-2-1-2 or 4-3-1-2 or some such he wouldn't be great.

Height - Can feel a bit short at times. Not a massive issue but will improve.

The machine
By hallo76, 28-04-2019

I used him a long time as cam (4-2--2-2) and he was good, but honestly he wasn't good as i hoped. Now he plays cdm next to Goretzka OTW and all i can say that this is the best cdm duo that i ever owned in fifa 19. Sanches wins every tackle, is very fast and in combination with this physical stats he is an absolutely beast. I recommend to play hin with the powerhouse chem to fix his passing stats.

+ Pace- Very fast with and without ball, he can easily catch some players who are 5-10m away.

+ Defending- He is very aggressive and wins a lot of tackles

+ Shooting- if he is not under pressure his shots are great and very powerful

+ Dribbling- He holds the ball very closely, which is very important if you want to keep the ball in possession

Passing- not a big con but under pressure he do sometimes pointless mistakes, you have to look that your opponent wants to take him under pressure

Shooting- you should not press the shooting button when an opponent player run next to him and sometimes he needs a long time to shoot

he's managed to keep his place
By Reeeeeeeneom, 20-05-2019

Recently the positions around Sanches have been upgraded. I play in a 4-5-1 formation with 2 cams, 91 Ronaldinho and 91 IF James Rodriguez. My striker is 89 falcao and behind Sanches sit Hummels and Rudiger, with tots digne and 86 kimmich on either side. on my wings are otw richarlison (86) and carniball pulisic, who is 88 (I'm not tryna flex, even if it isn't a big flex, ok this is for context lol). So recently I thought was it time to get Thiago alcantara in the cm to make it look better but Sanches with a powerhouse chem style is definitely good enough. I don't want to replace him because playing with 2 offensive cams I need Sanches' 89 physical and extra defending from the chem style to cover them, especially with his 93 sliding tackle


Even though he doesn't win every header , being 5'9, he is fast and aggressive enough to cover back, if hummels hasn't already stopped them. Overall I would just say the he is probably better than Thiago in a cm position as he can do a variety of things, also Thiago is more of a cam.

  • aggressive track backs
  • short passes
  • his chip passing
  • some nice finesse finishes
  • slightly too small in the air
