QUOTE Corinthians striker Alexandre Pato has admitted he will 'never forget' the support of the Milan fans.
The Brazilian forward left the Rossoneri in January after six years at San Siro, but he has insisted that his mind is focused on the present, and has ruled out a return to the club. “I will never forget the support of Milan,” he told reporters. “They were a team that gave me so much. “I got there when I was 17, but I have never said anything about a return. “I have a four-year contract with Corinthians and I am very happy here. “My head is on the present.” |

Well, it's normal that he says this. he can't say "I hope to return to Milan soon" or something like that.
That said, the more time passes, the more I get this feeling that his chapter at Milan is closed for good. |

I don't think so. As you said, he sure as hell can't say "I'll be back as soon as possible", but he didn't do anything to deny a possible return.

QUOTE Pato on target but injured in Corinthians win SAO PAULO, March 13 (Xinhua) -- Brazil internationals Alexandre Pato and Paulinho were both on target as Corinthians defeated Tijuana 3-0 in their Copa Libertadores Group 5 clash on Wednesday. Former Milan striker Pato bundled in from close range after Renato Augusto's fierce strike rebounded off the bar before Peru forward Paolo Guerrero made it 2-0 with a sublime first-time turn and finish following Alessandro's cross. Midfielder Paulinho scored the Brazilian outfit's third at the Pacaembu Stadium stadium by heading in after an Augusto set-piece. The victory was soured slightly by the latest setback to the injury-prone Pato, who was substituted in the first half with a right thigh strain. The 23-year-old was playing in his 11th consecutive match, a feat he had not achieved since 2009 due to a series of muscle problems. Defending champions Corinthians are now second in the Group 5 standings, two points behind top-placed Tijuana. In other matches on Wednesday, Ronaldinho's Atletico Mineiro overcame The Strongest 2-1, Olimpia trounced Deportivo Lara 5-1 and Toluca held Barcelona de Guayaquil to a goalless draw. Bolded the important parts. Source |

^^ Not apparently. as you may know he played in Corinthians' last game, won and converted a penalty ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) ) as well.
http://youtu.be/NKXz4oPrbis Why doesn't he miss many weeks through thigh injuries anymore? I demand an answer!! |

I know, but that report made it sound like his injury could've been serious. if it was, he wouldn't have played last week or whenever that game was.

Nice to see him regaining his touch. it doesn't matter if it's against a random South American team, he proved his talent at Milan against good teams.
LOL @ that cheesy music. gotta love those Brazilians, they breathe for football. |

That's a bad miss (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I'd blame it on The Big Phuck for not calling him up for the Conf. Cup (IMG:style_emoticons/default/innocent.gif)
Every time there's a new post in here I click expecting to see the news of a bad injury but no, that stuff only happened at Milan. injury prone player my thumb. |
