Gabiaddini has scored less goals in his whole Serie A career than Pato in one, and he is only two years younger.

Let's overrate our co-owned players, after all we already have our next Del Piero, Italian Cristiano Ronaldo, etc in our hands. :seven:
You are thick huh my man. Pato had ronaldhinio, Pirlo, kaka in his prime for parts of his carrier. Gabiaddini or berardi for that matter have no one of that caliber.

Of course "surrounded by better players" argument.

If it was the opposite I'm sure you would have used "a big fish in a small pond".

No if he would have been on a crap squad like say this current milan or even sassuolo and had those stats then I would have been on your side.

So what does that tell you about the player that despite all of the talent around him, he was still able to push for, and obtain, a place in the starting XI?

That Milan were desperate?

And let's not forget that he was 19.


19 years old, when he became a regular starter for those Milan squads that were so loaded with talent that you speak of.

:lol: This is what Juventus has come to? It's fans arguing over bringing a flop like Pato like he is the player he used to be when was a youngster?

He's had at least 2 injuries from that time to now, he won't ever be what everybody thought he would. Get the fucking over it. He's a FLOP.

Going to be the Barzagli of our attack.One of the worst in Brasilerao Serie A(going by stats alone and the fact that fucking fred and jo are higher in the pecking order for Brazil) to the best striker in Europe:tuttosport:.
I mean,look at the freebies that won a serie a title with us.Boriello,Bendtner,Anelka,Osvaldo.I'd certainly take Pato since he has shown that he has talent.Loan with option is the best way to go about this I think.

Have you guys been in hibernation in the last 3 years? We've filled our bench with Anelka, Bendtner, Borriello, Osvaldo.

Pato LOAN + OPTION is worse than those 4 guys?

Could be. He could very well get injured before even playing a single match. Just saying.
Yes, and like many of us have said, that's the only concern because if he's healthy, it's a no-brainer to have Pato on the bench instead of the usual retreads.

Pato loan would be a fine move. I don't expect him to regain any measure of the form he had for Milan years ago, but in that slight chance he does, a loan move is a no risk, and exceptionally high potential reward move. Saying otherwise is silly. It doesn't hurt us in the slightest, and it has that potential (very low probability) to vastly improve us if he can live up to his early career potential with proper training and fitness regime.
