Alexandre Pato Thread

I only asked b/c Egypt scored 3 goals.

Glad T. Silva was not part of that.

Brasil can kiss goodbye to the WC as long as Dunga is there. The man is desperately horrible coach! He has a "soft spot"(his words) for Hernanes, but Hernanes is not even called up... Man is the best player in Brasil and nothing... Josue plays in front of him! Gilberto Silva!

Not sure of this, but maybe Hernanes isn't called up because he has to play with Sao Paulo in the Copa Libertadores...

But he is almost never called up...

Dunga is an idiot. brazil wont win sh*t with him around

I am getting sick of Pato's childish comments about Chelsea...Leo seriously needs to have a talk with him and if he continues to by a little baby, he needs to be put into detention with the other 8 year olds.

Apparently he's been mistranslated, I'll copy my post from the other thread:

Apparently it's just the Sun that doesn't know how to translate. Here's what he originally said according to milannews.it.

In un'intervista rilasciata al Sun, l'attaccante del Milan Alexandre Pato, dopo aver giurato di voler restare al Milan a vita, sembra aver fatto marcia indietro. Ecco cos'ha dichiarato il Papero al Sun: "Ancelotti è molto importante per me. E’ stato lui a volermi e a farmi crescere come giocatore. Ho un contratto con il Milan, ma sarei molto interessato nel caso mi chiamasse al Chelsea”.
Certo dopo l'episodio Pirlo-Irish Indipendent, la credibilità dei tabloids britannici è pur sempre quel che è...

And the google translation (better than the translator at the Sun! )


In an interview with Sun, the striker Alexandre Pato of Milan, having sworn that you want to remain at Milan for life, seems to have made a step backwards. Here's what the duck said to the Sun: "Ancelotti is very important to me. E 'stato lui a wish and make me grow as a player. I have a contract with Milan, but I would be very concerned if I was calling to Chelsea."
Certainly after the episode Pirlo-Irish Independent, the credibility of British tabloids is still what it is ...

Pato is the only one who try something against Inter..
He is getting better and soon will be again playing like he plays in Internacional FC.

At least he cares about being humiliated. At least he is hungry for success. If Milan arent serious, then I would rather sell him then hold the kid back.

Enjoy pato this season guys, I really think he will be gone next summer

It looks like Chelsea won't have the right to buy any new player before the Summer mercato of 2011. So Pato will stay until at least 2011 !!

Pato is one of my most favorite players but he is too selfish

probably frustrated with the passes he is getting so he is taking things into his own hands, which usually works. but not with this current state of mind.

hopefully a tap in will change his fortune..

Must read Q&A with Pato guys... Very mature for a 20 yo lad.

Do you think you can improve as a player?
I would be crazy if I thought for a minute that I was one of the best players in the world. I'm only 20 so it's like I've just turned up at school. I can't think of one aspect of my game that is perfect and there are many, many players better than me at the moment. One day, I'd love to be the world's number one but you have to earn that status.

Also, as I said in the past, Kakás sell broke that feeling that we don´t sell our Champions. And Pato is aware of that:

Do you see yourself following Kaka out of Milan any time soon?
It might happen, it might not. All I can do is repeat that that I'm 150% committed to Milan for as far as I can see into the future. I have a contract here until 2012 and intend to honour it. I have a deep affection for this club as they brought me to Europe and had faith in me. They made the big step of investing in me and this counts for a lot. I would love to have the career of a Paolo Maldini, who was the symbol of Milan for his entire career, but I'm also aware that life is unpredictable.
