Player Review
84 - Eredivisie POTM SBC
I had almost given up on Mr. Sensible Transfer. His Rulebreaker had been tragic for me. That 88 passing is a lie. He was as slow as Jay Bothroyd. He was a calamity of a card, and came off at halftime almost every match. Alas, I sold him to fund my CL Gravenberch.
Weeks passed and something at the back of my mind kept nagging me. It said, "Sanagre is so clear of Gravenberch. You should use him."
But I fought off the demons. Sure, Sangare is the second best player in the Eridervise IRL (behind Mo Kudus of course), but Gravenberch is the Dutch Gullit in FIFA. No other Eridervise midfielder comes close to his skill. Or so was the case until December the 3rd of 2021, when EA would release the Irish Keane himself.
I hurriedly did the 82 rated squad, thinking it to be some POTM Vardy type of error. An 82 rated squad for an endgame CM? Surely a mistake. But I had been let down by a deceiving Sanagre before. I quickly moved Gravenberch to the reserves, solemnly expecting to be disappointed by POTM Sanagare within the first few games. Boy, was I wrong...
This card is immense. He is everywhere in the middle. When my Remi the Rat from Ratatouille opponents play a no-thought pass down the center, Sanagre is there to win the ball. When they try and counterattack off a corner, Sangare is the guy to stop them. When they go for the kickoff goal: Sangare merely breathes and they lose the ball. Nah, but in all seriousness, this card is cracked for me. Crazy interceptions. Crazy strength. I whacked a Shadow on him, and he is so good. Passing is alright. Pace is good enough. Dribbling is... well, different. Shooting is crazy from range. I've only recently started using timed-shooting, and Sanagre is crazy with it. The shot power is crazy. I'm looking at the card's stats while writing this and I was shocked to see only 83 shot power. It feels like 183. It's break the net kind of shot power.
To Recap:
Pace: 3.5/5
Shooting: 3.7/5
Passing: 3.7/5
Dribbling: 3/5
Defending: 4.8/5
Physicality: 4.9/5
Overall: 4.6/5
If you're running an Eridervise or Irish setup, it's definitely worth picking this guy up for cheap. He is not quite as good as Gravenberch, but he also isn't 100k. In any case, he's going in my squad for the time being. I love these Eridervise POTMs and these Eridervise cards in general. Keep them coming, EA! (Please, I need Madueke)
Well, that's it for the actual review. Have a good day!
