I wonder how much Coutinho will for in Jan or next summer? Probably could get at least €60m for him. Which they could then use to buy a load of average players.
Pato looked like he was going to become a superstar when he first joined Milan. Then his hamstrings went and he lost a yard of the explosive pace he had and injuries kept reoccurring. I would have thought he was done as a top level player. A shame as he would have been truly world class only for injuries.
I hadn’t been paying attention to how he was doing back in Brazil, seems to be keeping fit, playing games and scoring goals though. I’ve watched a compilation video of him in action, he looks like the Pato of old, looks much leaner than he was towards the end with Milan, seems to have got his acceleration back and just seems confident again.
Pato had it, he lost it, maybe he’s got it back again.
