    AC Milan is very interested. His loan move is what will resuscitate his career.

    Renato is not accustomed to nazist tactics, Bayern was never a match for him.

    Milan offered a loan with a buy option for €47M after a year I believe.

    His style fits england so I hope he can get loaned there for some PT.

    Mou is really upsetting me. Not one Portuguese player bought. Guardiola is the one always linked to Portuguese players.

    Not really his job to buy Portuguese players though. I do think that renato would fit his style of play but Herrera and Pogba are probably the first two names on the XI so it would be a Bayern redo

    He could of got Semedo, but he opted to get ripped off and buy Lindelof. Now we have to deal with Semedo on Team Messi.

    Lindelof is decent on the ball, but when it comes to his core duties he is absolute garbage. He cannot defend. Plenty of holes in his game there. Why did Mou buy yet another CB, especially one that is a step down from Bailey and Rojo? When Blind plays CB, he reminds me of Lindelof.

    Such a senseless move.

    I think he is losing it as a manager. Doesn't know how to spend his money. I think i would be the best manager in the world, honestly. Too many times i theoretically outsmart managers on the pitch and in the transfer market.

    Where do i sign up. Tired of these overpaid slouches.

    Renato is pissed. When they loan him out, he's going to tear it up.

    Vidal, Thiago, Tolisso and possibly Kimmich (guy can play anywhere) are all fighting with Renato for two spots.

    Vidal and Thiago are gonna play almost every game. Tolisso is a stud. Not sure renato is better than him right now

    Everyone misses PKs and I'd much rather see someone miss a PK like Renato did than like Nani, Quaresma, Moutinho did against Chile. Give me the guy who knows there are areas of the goal to try to place a PK that the GK simply can't reach. He tried to do the same thing that worked against Poland, he just tried to be too perfect with the placement.

    Overall, he had a bad game against Arsenal from what i hear. But that's to be expected since he had the entire season off.

    I saw a highlight video someone made specifically of him him vs. Arsenal. Lots of simple passes, a deflected shot from outside the box, the nifty turn and pass flicked over the top. It was tough to tell how much was him not impacting the game and how much was the fact Arsenal flooded the midfield, so Renato had obody to pass to and no room to maneuver. He needs space to get going.

    He did have a bad game. Lost a lot of passes too. He's just overrated. The sooner we accept it, the sooner we can temper our expectations, the sooner we can move on.

    He needs to win a role this season or get loaned out. Two years on the bench is no good and whenever Portugal plays with a confident Sanches they win a major tournament
