He isn't a striker primarily. Only on FIFA is he a centre forward. He is a  wide forward, usually on the left.

No I get that for sure, he's played most of his games on the left. This is precisely why I think we're interested because of his ability to play in different roles. More of an Auxiliary striker.

Pato could be a good signing.

Could be.  But, if he's primarily an aux striker who can play out on the left, 433 would suit him better.  Same with Pedro.  Not so much LM like we use.

I'd love for us to give 433 a shot, but...

According to ESPN Brasil correspondent based in UK, he believes Pato's staff is creating the whole thing and he doesn't believe Chelsea is really interested, and only a deal on loan would be possible.

I hope its true. Pato doesn't many any sense.

Team with Oscar+Pato. What a nightmare.

The google translate version of that link is great:

Now with duck in the sights, Chelsea is a true 'cemetery attackers'

I'm sure we've got a spare physio table he can use. 

 

He has been great at times but this guy can get injured getting out of bed

In 3 years Pato has not suffered one serious injury.

I wanted him so much before he went to Milan. I think this would be an okay move if it means falcao gets thrown back to Monaco and if it's a loan with an option to buy if he does well. 50k euro is relatively small(if the rumours are true) and fitting for a third striker that can play wide for extra squad depth.

That was my first impression until I seen Lance! reporting it too.  And a guy on Twitter who is based in Brazil with many followers called Cynegeticus said the original report by whoever from ESPNBrazil is a reliable guy

I swear the people at the club think we're in 2011 or something. Signing the likes of Pato and Falcao.

I rather get Chicharito then this guy.

But if we get him then if the wages and fees is low then that's a low risk gamble.

There's no point signing Chicharito, he would be ineligible to play for another club as he has already played for two clubs (United and Leverkusen) this season.

#Corinthians Director Eduardo Ferreira: "Pato will not travel due to trading. From what I understand and heard, negotiations are advanced"

#Corinthians Director Eduardo Ferreira: "There are European club and Asian club sending proposed to Pato in the last days."

For some reason I can see this risk paying off and being a master stroke, but tbh I said the same when we signed Falcao... So who knows.

This is just the equivalent of the Oscar is tired nonsense. It's the sort of thing people say when they either do not want to be frank about a player because they are trying to sell him or else they are not prepared to accept the truth. The truth is that, Pato is useless. Stupid signing if it happens.

P.S. Just to answer the rather reasonable question some may want to ask, I have not seen Pato kick a ball in Brazil. I did see him play for Milan however. His reputation is all smoke and mirrors.

Your  "PS" just made all your opinion irrelevant lmao.

It would be an excuse if Pato hasnt returned his football in SPFC.

Sorry but I am tired of people posting about things they dont know shit about

Lance! is the Brazilian version of Goal, Daily Mail or The Sun. Anything but reliable.

Also, will you seriously give credit to a a twitter account named Cynegeticus?
