Now I have seen him a few times, therefore would suggest some small updates. His tacklings have an excellent timing for his age, in this you can see his outstanding talent when you consider his age and that this is actually his first regular appearance in the Bundesliga. When it's coming to a 1 vs. 1 against Breno he is hard to overcome. That's why he deserves a slightly higher RESP.
His passing is also quite ok, for a CB of his very good. Regularly he shows some really nice long passes that arrive where these are supposed to. The same applies for his interacting with teammates.
Breno does have a problem to concentrate for the full 90 min, sometimes he even seems a bit lethargic. He also does have a little weight problem since he plays for Munich, which is not typical for a very young player who is supposed to fight for his career.
My suggestions:
RESP=80
DA=71
SPA=71
LPA=70
LPS=75
MENT=74
TW=75
Conclusion: if this guy learns how to become the "fighting gene", he has the talent to be a great CB in the future. Overall his recent performances are very promising, he is the best CB of Nuremberg already.
