Pato

[ACMILAN1983]

Despite not always playing at his best, I believe Pato's goals to minutes ratio works out to 13 goals in around 14.5 games.

Says it all really.

I think Pato is a streakly scorers, which is a lot like Sheva. As if they are in form, they will keep scoring but once their forms dip abit, they finish like Robinho.

IMO, Pato's performances have dipped since He joined the team. In his first season, he was awesome, scoring crucial goals and generally causing all sorts of problems for the opposition backlines. These days however, maybe petulance is creeping in or maybe its the injuries, He just doesn't seem to put in the kind of effort that is required from a kid with his abilities. I don't think too much has been asked of him.

I've watched 90% of our games since he joined and I disagree. Back then he was more spectacular but still inconsistent just like now. I think it was Ancelotti who told him to dribble less and play for the team.

He tries but the main problem is - playing for the team is not his strong point.
We need to put him in the CF spot and enjoy our 30 goals per season.

I LOVE YOU

$hevchenko didn't turn out to be the red & black prince and captain after Maldini as expected, but the last thing an ACM fan could argue about is his goal scoring capability. He was just unstoppable, it as simple as that. In form or out of form, he would have scored you the goals you need any time. So Pato has still many levels to climb to be put in the same league as $hevchenko.

On more positive notes, is our little duck having an affair with the sizzling hot Barbara Berlusconi??


Pato is 22, where as Barbara is 27. Five years age difference. Now that's what I call impressive. Having an affair with boss's hot daughter, who is 5 years older Grand Pato You have ultimately earned the utter respect of mine. Forza Pato.


Maybe I need to start the 'Romantic-Boys Club' again & make Pato as our inspirational figure

Yes he is dating her. He dedicated his goals to the fans an her. He also confirmed his relationship in another interview a couple of weeks ago iirc.

This site said he needs 100 minutes to score one goal in Serie A:

I think that's pretty much in line with what I said. I had a look at Di Natale, Eto'o and Ibra's goals to minute ratio on that site, which showed:

Di Natale - 99 minutes
Eto'o - 129 minutes
Ibra - 168 minutes

Basically, Pato's strike rate is comparable to Serie A's top scorer.

Also, I decided to check Messi too (bearing in mind he plays in the more open La Liga), and his was 88 minutes.

hes hardly having an affair with her seen as neither of them were attached to partners in the first place.

If it is from barbara the inspiration is coming for pato, then keep dating her pato.

Dating Boss's daughter is risky business. Just look at Kala.

Anyhow, I stated earlier about streaky scorers and that both Pato and Sheva are that. I did not mean to take anything away from Sheva, as streaky scorers still score goals, there is nothing wrong with it. The diff., between those two is the ability to do something on the pitch when the goals ain't coming. Something that Sheva can do but Pato can't at this moment. He needs to improve on that to be consider a TRUE WC strikers.

As for goal/minute. I think that might be overblown a bit, since scoring a Go Ahead Goal or game tying goal is a lot harder than scoring one when you are 2 or 3 goals up.
