But for Milan fans and Brasil fans there is no bigger player right now than Alexandre Rodrigues da Silva, better know as Alexandre PATO. The 18 year old phenom attracted many big name clubs from Europe such as S. L Benfica, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, Real Madrid, Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea, and Arsenal to name a few. On August 22, 2007 Milan officially signed Pato, with a transfer fee of US$31 Million.
However due to his age, he couldn't not be allowed to play in competitive games for Milan until January 2008.
As we are now only a few days away from January, Millions of fans are awaiting the Official Debut of Pato. As Milan, currently the best team in football are struggling to win matches played at their home in San Siro, many fans are expecting a change when Pato has arrived. Critics have said that this poor performance is based on the fact that most of Milan's players are over the age of thirty, while other say that it is due to their lack of talent at the forward position.
Pato however is young and talent and would easilt be placed into the starting spot without having to work much for it because, Milan really do not have a better option as leading European goal scorer Pippo Inzaghi is now getting old and cannot manage to play ever game on the schedule. Willy Auyobeng is also young as Pato but is not as talent, and isnt even expected to play for this season. Alberto Gilardino and Ronaldo Luis Nazário de Lima (Fat Ron) are the only other two striker left and Fat Ron is having his share of injury problems and Gilardino is not what he was Two years ago. Therefore Pato is expected to start, but however he is still a young player and, he is already expected to carry on the scoring load for Milan.
Fans may be expecting too much for the Brazilian wonder kid, but Milan is ranked as the Best younger Brazilian player, and according to his practise matches all he does is impress the players and coaching staff of Milan, and we wish him a good year for the Rossenari.

First of all, you need English grammar lessons, YOUR ENGLISH IS HORRIBLE! a few egs:
"many fans are expecting a change when Pato has arrived."
"Pato however is young and talent and would easilt be placed into the starting spot without having to work much for it because, Milan really do not have a better option as leading European goal scorer Pippo Inzaghi is now getting old and cannot manage to play ever game on the schedule." (so much errors in this one sentence)
"Willy Auyobeng is also young as Pato but is not as talent, and isnt even expected to play for this season."
now about Pato...i think you're thining from a fan perspective and not a coaching one. A.C. Milan are not going to start him outright because he is VERY young and inexpereinced. They are likely to bench him at least for the first month and work his way in. If you were thinking like a manager you would have figured that out. Instead you're thinking like a fan and saying that he is going to come and immediately get a start. Even with their struggles they won't just throw him into the starting lineup because he has NEVE played at this level. He may not even be able to handle the very defensive italian league and would proably flourish better in spain or england, where skill ism ore appreciated. We will see what happens but I think you're 'bigging' him up way more than you should. let's wait and see before we start predicting results from him.
talk about my grammer, "i think you're thining from a fan", "he has NEVE played at this level", "where skill ism ore appreciated", now ur da one that cannot spell.
I am 100% +ve that he will play in the first match, that he is able to play in.
