Break the bank for Pato

Not enough Diouf in it for my liking!
 
I don't know if you're joking or if I've been a bit slow here, but to laugh at any suggestion saying Pato is more talented than Anderson is mad, really. Personally, being a bit of an Anderson loving gimp, I wouldn't say there's too much difference in terms of how good they could end up becoming, but Pato's certainly a special youngster and I'm not surprised if there are people who think he could go on to be the very best.

I think with the likes of Pato, Aguero, Messi, Balotelli, Fabregas, Rooney, Gourcuff, Higuain etc, we're going to be seeing a very impressive generation of footballers in the next few years. They're already excellent as it is.

I'm laughing at his reasoning. Lets sell Anderson, Nani, Obertan, Evans, Rafael, Macheda and Welbeck all because Pato has more talent and potential than them.
 
Milan would never sell Pato, he is the future of their club, it would be like someone trying to buy Rooney in around 2006 after a couple of seasons with us after we bought him, it won't happen.
Pato is at Milan, who aren't doing as well these past few seasons, however are certainly still well within that elite bracket of football clubs in Europe and are still highly desirable for players to join as they are always a threat given the odd season out.
Jovetic is a more realistic option from Serie A; okay, I know he's not a striker but an attacking midfielder but I think despite Fiorentina being in the CL, he is better than them and will move on within a couple of seasons.

I only suggested Anderson & Nani

And you've got my reasoning wrong too

My reasoning is that we could get by without Anderson & Nani quite easily, whereas a special talent like Pato would make a HUGE difference to our forward play.

And yes, I do believe Pato has more potential than them, because he's already just a slight notch below the very best, doing it on the big stage for Milan consistently
 
Anderson is a enigma, Nani just isnt good enough. They are both talents but what will become of them in the long run, it's too hard to tell. Nani for me just isnt cut out for the pressures of a big club and Anderson has a bad attitude. Pato may very well have a bad attitude too but what he does on the pitch is far greater than anything Nani or Anderson have managed.

I mean this kid is 20 years old and has a goal every other game to his name. (didnt mean for that to rhyme) Name me the other forwards in world football with a ratio as good as that never mind a 20 year old. He still has so much potential but right now he already looks better than most and that's just based on his current ability on the pitch.

If he improves we are talking about a Ronaldo (brazilian, the real one) level of player here.

:confused:


If anything Nani is an engima, not Anderson. Infact why would you call Anderson to have a bad attitude. If i remember correctly the lad got into form by asking Ole to start him in the reserve game last month and put in some very good performance over the last month in the first team. If anything his attitude is one of his plus points.

I don't berate Pato's talent by any means what so ever, but isn't a little unfair to compare two players playing in two different position is two different leagues? . Though i do believe Pato is the next great Brazilian striker and could very well be important in whatever Brazil as a footballing nation achieve in the next decade or so. But its too early for him to play in South Africa.
 
I dont agree, he's their best finisher

I don't however see Dunga playing him there and for all his ability he's not a finished article (from what i've seen atleast). Brazil has been doing quite well with their forwards when i last saw them during the Confederations cup. However they are too reliant on Kaka having a good time, he ,i believe, holds the key to their success in South Africa.

Back to the topic, Luis Fabiano would be their first choice striker i think.
 
Imo Nani is a bigger individual talent than Anderson will ever be.

Anderson is being over hyped here while Nani is portrayed as worthless way too often.

As for Pato, Chelsea offered a lot and Ancelotti did his best to convince the kid but Milan rejected the idea outright even though they were offered rather serious amount of money.

Justify
 
We should buy Ageuro, then trade Rooney + Aguero for Pato and his seed, (so we can have future Pato's for free)
 
I'd still sell Ando and Nani, bring in about 20 mill, whack another 50 on top and give it to Milan. They wouldn't refuse. United make a statement that they are big players not just Madrid. He scores a load of goals for 5-7 seasons, win a few trophies, makes a shit load in shirt sales etc, we sell him on to Madrid/Barca and dont lose out financially. Jobs a good un

That's just not going to happen. If anyone goes it's Nani and if rumours are to be believed. . .Vidic. But that fact remains we shouldn't need to offload players to generate funds - We sold Ronaldo for £80m.

Ah, it's so sweet when a plan just comes together like buttcheeks ain't it GB. Why can't life always be this simple
 
a Ronaldo (brazilian, the real one) level of player here.

I think that is going overboard, certainly Pato is a great player, but certainly a class behind Ronaldo. Just imagine if Ronaldo didn't get those serious injuries, Pele would be just a myth. Ronaldo would be the player people who would be talked on for centuries.

From seeing Pato week in and week out, I suggest he has more of a killer instinct than Rooney but Rooney's fitness levels and work rate is beyond this world, adding to that his team work. If only he can be more selfish and not play those stupid 1-2's where 9 out of ten he loses the ball Rooney will become world class again.

Are you being serious?

Thats football manager stuff right there. Real life football is not that simple.

And I disagree he's been doing it consistently. I've seen him have some poor/average games with Milan.

:lol::lol:

Brilliant idea but no way we should let Anderson go that too if we are expecting 10 mil for him.
