How good was Alexandre Pato actually? #GOAT
New video about one of the most controversial and naturally talented players we've seen over the 2000's in football. In this episode we take on Alexandre Pato who played for AC Milan, Internacional, Villareal and Chelsea for most of his career. - Sport
This guy scored one of the best goals I've seen.. ran half the pitch to score against one of the best teams in the world at the time... forever remembered
Yes you are right. We alll asked ourselves Who is this guy? He was a roookie then and he scored it like a vet
that was great but in the second leg Milan played like they weren't interested in winning change my mind if u can
Messi says Hi
Lies again? Disgrace America
yes against Barca
His run in AC MILAN was godly, just like KAKA run in milan Pato was just magical till injury happened
Kaka was magical
@@ronniemushiwokufa2508brother i fell in love with football watching KAKA PERFORM. Truly was magic
@@Iffeany260 I enjoyed watching him destroy Sir Alex's Manchester United at one time 🤣🤣🤣🤣
him to Kaka is not even a candle to the sun
just from hearing about the injuries it sounds like miss management of a player when a player now returns one has to ease them back into the game not just put them back in expecting the injury to have gone away
Long time A.C. Milan fan here, and I can tell you that Pato is, without any doubt, the biggest regret in recent years.
The reasons for his downfall are too many to count, but if I should make a quicklist, I'd say:
1) A.C. Milan medical staff. If you compare his phisique when he arrived and when he left Milan, it's bonkers. He arrived as a really thin boy, who ran in an awkward way, he left as a bona-fide body builder, with exaggerated uppertorso muscles. Daniele Tognaccini (head of Milan medical staff) also bragged about his transformation. This inevitably put exaggerate stress on his leg muscles, and combined with the poor quality of the SerieA fields, lead to the spiral of continous injuries described in the video
2) In the great scheme of things, he was always sacrified on the pitch to allow other players play in their favorite position. He played as a Second Striker behind Inzaghi with Kakà on his side. He then played as a Right Wing to allow Ronaldinho play Left Wing and Borriello play as Forward. He played an undefined role with Ibrahimovic and Robinho (Boateng) under Allegri.
He never had the chance to play in his own proper role, and still had an amazing goal/minute ratio, which just testifies the great talent he had
3) Pato's own poor life choices. He wed Sthefany Brito in 2009 just after arriving in Milan. He divorced her right after in 2010, and being exposed to the likes of Ronaldinho and Robinho, not exactly the most professional players of all times, he became a partyboy. The fling with Barbara Berlusconi was just the cherry on top, but at that point in time it was already clear he had lost most of his love for football
Honestly, to this day, it still hurts that it ended that bad ...
Thanks for the info. Dating the chairman's daughter is never gonna end well
i like your analysis from the perspective of a fan who had insight into some of the things that went on--I just hope that regardless of this, that he has financial stability with the money he made through this times
@@randyeduo According to one newspaper, Pato is worth $145 Million through 'savvy investments sizeable property holdings, and lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics.
.. also owns a chain of burger restaurants in Brasilia, a vodka brand, and a fashion line.'
Good luck to him, he was phenomenal...then he wasn't. Some players go through their careers injury-free; some can ignore the partying/cars/glamorous women that comes with it.
@@johndirom8999 good, at least it was not necessarily a total loss for him. that's life, u win some, u lost some
In order to be an excellent player, you need a right coach, tactic and attitude (being professional).
I used to love watching Pato from 2009-2011ish right before school at 6am as I'm from Australia I would always have to leave early due to school and would always miss 15 minutes plus extra time I used to love bragging about him at school to my friends Il never forget you Pato ❤️🖤🇦🇺
Pato vs Barcelona 😳👌🏻.
He's actually on his way to having a good season if he stays healthy. He also looks like he's having fun playing.
And now look at Cavani at 34...
He is a legend... someone who worked hard and stayed away from the wrong type of players!
It wasn't his fault. He also had worked hard enough, it was just Milan and some strange combos.
Legend? How can you be a legend without UCL or WC?
Ask Eric Cantona about that.@@phineas1112
@@phineas1112easily, there is plenty of legends who didn't win the WC or UCL.
The streets will never forget, Alex Pato
Are people still using that old ass "the streets" bull shit
@@bobbybobstar1496 yes, we still use it.
@@bobbybobstar1496 no only washers use it
@@TheWillog sounds about right
Cringe
I always signed this man in Fifa, he got injured too early and they ruined his progress, much like Kaka's injuries in Real Madrid.
I signed him for my Viktoria Berlin rtg and on the title winning game in the 3rd division , he tore his acl and was out for 7 months ending his career revival. Ended up naming the new stadium after him lol
Tbf kaka was already headed downhill. Happens to most players that use pace
@@HelloThere-uh3ll Except that Kaka never had pace. He just had bad mechanics.
@@asnark7115 that might be the dumbest comment I have ever seen…delete that shit 😂
Me too
With a net worth of $145 million and a bunch of good investments and successful businesses, I honestly don't think he minds much.
I would if I could’ve won 2 Ballandors
The same thing happened with Ronaldo Phenomenon, the club doctors made them gain weight very fast not to mention that they were explosive players, the pressure on the knees is tremendous when you have to change direction extremely fast or run at an extreme speed like both. Duck's body didn't have time to adapt,
they should have given him some time to get used to his body not put him straight into the game. It's a good thing that medicine has evolved over time because we would have other Pato and Ronaldo.
Ronaldo fenomenon was ultimate footballing perfection.. even with so many injuries he won 2 world cups, 1 runners up trophy, 2 ballon d'or, 1998 world cup golden ball, 2002 golden boot.. he is the only injury prone footballer in history who achieved all the highest international accolades.. nobody can be like him..
We love you Pato,,, from a Barcelona fan,,, I still can't forget the 25s goal at camp Nou,,, it was just like yesterday
Pato vs Real Madrid 😳👌🏻.
Huh..
Pato vs Barca
Puesi wey no mames.
He's my age, I looked up to him when he broke out to the masses back in Milan. People who didn't live through it would have a hard time understanding the amount of hype Pato had, right when social media was starting to catch on. He was INSANE and simply broke all expectations consistently, be it Serie A, Champions League, National Team games... anything. Had he not been infected by injuries, the Neymar generation would've been completely different and Brazil would've never lost their touch (the new current generation with Vini and Antony and so on is really good though). I know of many cases of "What If?!" players, but none other was a bigger What If than Alexandor Pato for me. At least he's the biggest one out of the ones that I did manage to see. Only Messi had a similar breakout into stardom in such a conving way in the past 2 decades (arguably Ronaldo fenomeno as well, but that was nearly 3 decades ago). Thanks for doing this video.
In my opinion Pato was a magnificient prospect but he is less talented than Balotelli and Balotelli was not far above Harry Kane talent wise.
@@brunaciompi1717 You bring up a good point. Honestly Balotelli was also a great prospect, but there was something different about Pato. Being 17 and bossing everything and everyone around on all scenarios (NT, CL, Serie A)... I only ever seen that with Messi and Ronaldo (fat one) when he was young and they later came up to be some of the best players in history. Incredible. Balotelli is another HUGE "_What IF?_", he never suffered much with injuries, but he did suffer a lot from his personality. Wonder what could've been. Kane is another story, he is great but is brought down by the teams he plays in (both Spurs and England). Definitely not on the same level as the previously mentioned players who were crystal clear at age 17. He did push himself every season to become better and better, great attitude and captain material imho.
@@brunaciompi1717 Pato was better than Mario.
@@eduardhermesanschau9590 can’t say I agree.
Yeah.. Pato was amazing with the rainbow moves.. to those who defended against him, he was spetacolo. . I feel exactly the same as the author of this thread. Pato was special... something great about the way he connected with so many greats who played with Milan. Like an angel, enjoying everything about life, not just football.. there was no class above him...
lli6
I know exactly how he feels about his thigh. The same happened to me through the NHS. Mad how a professional football club has such negligence especially of Milan’s calibre
thank you some people will never understand what happens to athletes when injured and for the same injury over and over again it has to be the medical team its the easiest answer.
@@mathewlett9104 exactly, i dont think they were giving him time to heal correctly
He’s only 32 now, I loved watching him during his Milan days.Great job on the video. 👍
Italian Lig is very difficult, he should have left earlier
He is 33 now
Injuries, injuries, injuries. Milans medical team ruined him. They bulked him and then, the injuries started !!
Hi! I posted recently a video about the story of Ronaldo Nazario (R9) and his career. If you want to see how injuries killed an amazing career, the video is up here: czcams.com/video/e73CDHYmZC4/video.html
Really? Seems odd considering the highly successful MilanLab.
Some people are just predisposed to have certain issues and it surely didn't help he was playing such a high number of games from a very young age. Michael Owen is a prime example of this.
Since when putting on muscle contributes to more injuries?!
@@lc86_65 they bulked him up too fast his body couldn't keep up
So it’s Milan’s fault as well i take it for the lacklustre 10 years he’s been away from the club?
Talent without hard work is nothing
-CR7
he did work though, just too much pressure and too many injuries.
Marco Reus has a similar challenge with injuries but still shines in Dortmund as a Big Star Player
He had both, but no longer for the motivation to play. Such a shame.
He loved football the most before he had lost every singe of his love to play football.
messi is the talent without hard work, and is much better than ronaldo
@@praisebetoyourCreator saying Messi doesn't Work hard is Like saying Mbappe doesn't run
Too much talent for a human body to take. He was born with a gift that we weren’t ready to witness in full spectacle.
Am I the only one who loves the way this guy narrates the story ?
El Shaarawy was another prospect at Milan hampered by injury. Maybe Pato had a point about the club’s injury record.
Everyone knows AC Milan has a terrible time with injuries, it’s the whole reason why they are out of the UCL and the reason they didn’t win the scudetto last year, and will probably be the reason why they won’t win it this year too
@@EdwardElfigo yet MilanLab was highly successful during this period with reducing injuries to players and prolonging their careers. I think the main issue is that Pato didn't take care of his body. He wasn't professional enough.
@@EdwardElfigo and once Milan Lab was cancelled and Meerseman was fired the club was plagued with injuries...
@@EdwardElfigo AC Milan won Scudetto this year.
@@teasellermodi5897 because they stopped getting injuries
Outstanding job, keep it going like that. I always felt bad for players who never get their full potential.
Can you please do a video on how good was Sócrates
🇧🇷
Yes!
And Zico
@@gmain1977 he has already done a video on Zico 🇧🇷 1 year ago
There are a lot of players throughout history that had huge talent, potential for top 5 in the world, but never achieved even half of that. Pato is just one in a long list with players like Adriano, Robinho, Saviola, Dani, Fabio Paim, Lucian Sanmartean
Quaresma
Your storytelling videos are great! You've really found your niche here on CZcams :-) Keep the videos coming. Its really sad how injuries can ruin a player like this.
Can you do one about Sadio mane please more people need to hear his story especially since he has just won afcon
best football player documentaries on youtube no cap 💯💯 keep up the good work
Your videos are really good especially the details you go into I really enjoy them
Great video keep it up and could you pls do r9 he's my favourite player
Thanks again for another great video.From a Jamaican living in USA 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Same
Love from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 I really enjoy these videos, Keep them coming.
Your storytelling is powerful
when you grow up, watching all these legends play in the 80's 90's and early 00's you only remember and learn their all time highs as a kid because no one talks about what happens to then when they fall , how or why, at least here where i live, and i never learned anything about all these players i adored as a kid, the reason i LOVE this channel and you sir, is because you fill all these blanks, and questions i had for a couple of decades now. you are awesome PLEASE keep doing what you are doing im so happy i found your channel.

Pato was my childhood Haaland/Mbappe
Literally haha dude was suppose to be the chosen one
Pato & Balotelli (that 2012 EURO run)!
@@Unknownflag10 He almost was one of those until Milan made him gain too much weight.
For me, it was Kaka, basically my childhood CR7/Messi.
always loved the fella, brilliant striker...modelled in R9's form and some bit of Kaka. injuries really did him bad...there's a recurring thing about Brazilians and injuries, more so in MIlan...R9..remember?
great video, brings back all the good memories.
He doesn't need to play anymore, as he's married nowadays to the daughter of a Brazilian media mogul, Silvio Santos, who is the owner of the 2nd largest TV network in the country, SBT. Pato excelled more in being a playboy than a player and has been successful at that.
if pato played without injuries he would be one of the best right now
Nah he wasnt professional enough to become like that. Even without injuries he wouldnt be one of the best.
@@sherminator1617 factos
These guys don't have disipline and Ambition ,,party 🎉 every night
He's playing for Orlando City now I just hope he will stay healthy and show his talent,if not for so many injury's he would have been the next Ronaldo of Brasil.
Yes. Might go to a game just to go see him.
Nunca vou me esquecer, eu fiz teste para o Internacional e jogava pelo seu futsal. Minha mãe conheceu o Pato nessa época, ela falava que seria o maior jogador da história. Se não me engano ele chegou a morar um tempo com um jogador do time, Rafael Sóbis, de lá ele pegava o ônibus para ir treinar e eu pegava ônibus com ele.
E talvez seria mesmo, mas depois que o dinheiro entra na conta, fi, tem que ser muito focado pra não tacar o foda-se
AC Milan Cult Legend, a FIFA Legend and the one who is the biggest "What If Pato was never injured"
Iam now conviced that your documentaries are one of the best and have subscribed to yr channel.
Pato has never been the "Next Ronaldo", since the only two things they had in common were the agility and injuries. Still a magnificent player, though
He was, in his early days at Milan. I still remember his crazy goal vs Barça in the first minute of the game.
@@migscapo Ronaldo Fenomeno was one of the greatest thing that happened to football: he was fast, phisically gifted, strong, skilled... He had everything, except good knees
Pato was indeed a magnificent player, expecially in the open space, and he was a pain in the ass to play against, but he lacked physical strength
Ronaldo was faster, stronger, more technical, better finishing..... pato even in his prime without injuries wouldn't even come close
@@migscapo thats the only one example u can give lmao
Yeah. Pato had talent but he mostly relied on pace.
I still remember when he scorched Barcelona with his speed in the opening minutes.
This guy used to average a goal every game for AC Milan. It was a thrill to watch him in red and black. Such a sad fate in the end for such a talented player.
Great channel meu amigo 🔥
Amazing Video!!! You should make about Lucas Moura too!
Amazing upload 🔥❤️
Video been up for like 2 minutes lol
Only if he had chosen praying with Kaka instead of flipping playboy magazine with Ronaldo.
I did this channel anyway! I think this blokes accent make the stories a little bit better. A easy listernin voice new and its a bonus. Gday all from Melbourne 👊
I believe his main problem was lack of discipline. If he was disciplined like Ibrahimović, Messi and Christiano Ronaldo he would still be top player in Europe wining trophies.
Those 3 are exceptional.
@@ajmalsafi13 Messi used to get injured alot at the beginning of his senior career. There was even a time he would puke while on the field whenever he went to play in high altitude areas.
He himself said he had to change his deit which greatly reduced his injuries and improved his health.
@@henrymmene4470 That's why I said he is exceptional, most of the South American players are vastly naturally gifted but poor discipline ruin them.
Agree, i heard Messi's mom chased away girls so her son can concentrate on football, after watching this guys videos that he puts on how great footballers failed you got to give credit to a mother like that, Messi kept his form his entire carrier, never took his eyes of the game. All the players that failed on this list had severe parenting or guidance problems.
His problem is himself. He liked the celebrity attention more than doing his job. He even tried to date Dilraba Dilmurat when he was playing in China. Married an actress, divorced and in the end married a daughter of a media mogul, famous here as a selfmade man (Silvio Santos).
Well, he was injured many times. That's why. I remember Del Bosque saying that Macca could've been the best player in the world but the injuries stopped him.
Injuries stops anyone
He had the potential to win the majority of Balon d'Or and FIFA The Best that Messi and Ronaldo actually won.
Thank you, Pato for the joy and excitement you gave me and the great goals and unreal skill you showed. Brief but fantastic!!
Pato vs Barcelona, in 24 seconds. Thanks for the memories.
I wished, he didn’t have such bad injuries, he showed his full potential that day.
Nice work rely liked the video
Your voice and the video is really nice ❤️❤️❤️🔥 love it
thank you so much man
He helped my team at our Club World Cup title. We're always gonna love him lol
Btw, he was old enough to vote. In Brazil you can vote at 16
I saw him on FIFA 08..
And everytime I play manager mode ,I Buy him..
His rating is similar to messi....
Then I read about him..it was unfortunate...
I remember playing manager mode in fifa 09.I always bought him for the club i used yo manage.I am shocked to what he has become now due to his injuries
Good video man respect
So many great young Brazilian talents always burn out either because of injuries or because of the party lifestyle
TRUTH!!
Honestly there are so many young Brazilians who could've ended up as best in the world but most end up egotistical and non hardworking after quick success thats the difference between a talent and hardwork!
To many to list. Then you have the ones like Ronaldinho who did make it to the top and then lacked discipline to stay there. Such a shame he could have easily been the greatest of all time
São Paulo supporter here.
His time at São Paulo was really good, along with Kaká, Luis Fabiano, Rogério Ceni(the greatest scorer while being a goalkeeper). We got the second place on Brasileirão, but still Pato looked like he was coming back to shape. Unfortunately, he didn't belong to São Paulo, so was sent back to Corinthians. In 2019, Pato came back from China to São Paulo, together with Hernanes(the one who played for Lazio). Both of them never succeded in getting back in form due to the long time on China League. He also got married to the daughter of one of the most powerful man in Brazil, Silvio Santos. At that time, not getting many minutes at the pitch, decided to resign from São Paulo, saving us about 13 million reais(2 million euros) from sallaries. I have a fond memory of Pato, he is really talented, no doubt about that, but one time he said: -My dream is to have my foot stamped in the Walk of Fame. At this moment, I realized that Pato 'll never be able to play football at high level again.
sound like spoiled teenagers
Corinthians
Pato is finished completely.
He had lost his love of football, or maybe it's because football had betrayed his trust.
Love the the title of your channel. So original. Where did you get the idea?
A great video again as always. Let me ask you something...ars you from Portugal?
Thank you for this video, no sugarcoating, only facts.
I used to watch Pato with such joy. He was one of my favourite players in Ac Milan back then. Sad to see him this way!
your content is amazing keep up the great work 💪
Grande vídeo vejo-te à uns 5 meses e só descobri agora que és tuga:)
Dude brazil had so many stars that could’ve been in the same level as Messi and Cristiano but always get forgotten or their European careers get cut short. Like kaka, pato, oscar, ronaldinho…
Great video. My only complaint is that there were ads every 90 seconds when watching this, which upset the flow of the video, and it was the same advert every time. You need to cut down on the amount of ads shown, as that's almost 15 adverts, for this 20-minute video. Just ludicrous
Bro, where are you from ? You have a very unique accent. I love it ❤️
I will always love this man.
It seems so tragic that so much pressure can be put on such young people. What choice do they have except to crumble? As an American and a fan of MLS I hope he's found a home here.
I would like to know that is it really unlucky on a player's part if he is incurring too many injuries or is it like that he can himself deal with them and it basically depends on a player's habits and work ethic as to how he can help himself to rise from injuries?
Great vid
Dam no lie he was my favorite player when I started to be a fan of Ac Milan!! Breaks my heart that he never reached his potential!!!
I love this guy’s voice it is so smooth. It's like listening to meditation.
Kaka, Marcelo, Robinho, Neymar, Pato, Vinicius, Rodrygo, David Neres, Antony... Brazil just keeps churning out these world-class players! I must visit that country in my lifetime to see the machine that produces such players!
Rodrygo, neres world class 🤣🤣keep dreaming pal neres is playing in Russia after peaking in Holland so far from world class and rodrygo has done FA as a player to be labelled world class

@@timsmith1323 Rodrygo just won La Liga and UCL. His time coming soon. It's just a beginning. I don't know about Neres.
@@teasellermodi5897 That doesn’t make him world class though it just means he’s in a very good team 🤦♂️come on you can’t seriously think rodrygo is world class he’s looked ok at times this season but he’s still very inconsistent and neres is playing in Ukraine not for a top top team which he’d have moved to if he was world class instead only shakhtar were interested in him
I remember that '07 U20 WC in Canada... him, Dos Santos, and Edu looked unreal.
The problem with talented footballers is that they party too much 😕
So sad. 😢😞 he was one of my fav players
Can you please do Edison Cavani
The street will never forget the superb one man terminator
Not every player has the motivation and desire to reach and then stay at the very top. Some lose some of it once they achieve a certain level and financial security.
Belize central america I'm from and & I'm a real Madrid fan but i remember Pato in his prime he was a legend!!✌🏽🙏🌎☮️
His problems are not injury related. He played really well in many ocasions after the injury. He just couldn't care less.
Pato enjoys the catwalk, billionaires and instagram. He stopped caring for football since his first injuries.
Its always the same case with Brazilian players, party fame women etc
@@beaconing7689 Yeah. But he is the most annoying of all. The talent this son of a pitch have is way too big so that he can sign contract after contract without having to show 25% of what he can play since age 20.
By getting close to Silvio Berlusconi and his daughter in Italy, he developed new goals in life. Now in Brazil he dates the daughter of Brazil's Berlusconi. He is hated by most supporters of all clubs, as a mercenary. All his interviews are bland, and he still sounds like an airhead spoiled teen who have never faced any difficulties in life.
if this video is not lying its the injuries there is no way a medical staff could be so stupid for him to keep getting injured like this any athlete knows that coming back from injuries are difficult however managed correctly you can over come them but for the same body part to keep getting injured says alot about the medical team
@@Guizambaldi personality wise keep getting worst huh ?
@@beaconing7689 right,
I can’t stand them
This is so sad to see, he was a genuine great player
This sounds like a ansu fati situation

How can he miss 6 weeks in 1 month?😅
Magic 😲.
Hahahahahaha exaggeration
He’s that talented
He's that bad
Such amazing talent that was never fully released on the football World
Finally is Saturday 🥰🙌🙌🙌
Thank you, I’m looking forward to the next one.
His an absolute banga for Brazil on fifa 12-13
That goal against Barcelona. He could have easily been succesful in the premier league where they go for attacking football instead of a tactical defensive Italian football. It was too late when Chelsea bought him.
Well atleast he played in the epl where players dream of but don’t get to play also sad his career faded away cus when he was at chelsea I kept hope he wouldn’t be like falcao but he did n I was again devastated
"I really fear as to how good he might become" - Fiery words !
Very underrated channel
I can understand the muscle atrophy problem.i had a ligament injury 5 years ago. Had a recovery injured it again. After that i got oversensitive about the knee and would try real hard to protect the knee. Now i just get pain on the knee if i do anything.I cant run properly because i am too sensitive about the knee and subconsciously try to overcorrect and protect it, my walking posture is a mess only thing i can do any good is long distance cycling. So i guess these things can happen to people.
When he joined Milan, he had the physique of a normal teenager. But as he grew up, I think the issue was a mixture of him bulking up but also could well be the case of that muscle just being weak to deal with the rigours of 3 matches a week. I think he bulked up too quick. I loved just how effortless his movement was when he joined. Just used to glide past the opposition like they weren't there. The season we won the scudetto under allegri, he performed really well with Ibra and Robinho. Robinho for one was utterly horrific in front of goal. He scored 15 goals, but he should've scored at least 30. I don't blame him so much for the partying because if you're young, rich and injured, what do you do? You go out.
last point sound like lack of professionalism and discipline
Robinho, Rivaldo and Ronaldinho indeed did enjoy partying, Pato didn't but well, you could tell he instead enjoyed the fame and spotlight, also popularity despite still worked hard to reach his best. So, at the very least, he still had listened to Ronaldo on that regard.
One of the best ì have ever seen
