I think all of them will be great players.

But the main competition is between Pato and Aguero. They are just better than the others in my opinion.

Well...I'm giving my vote to Pato. But its coz I really think that, not coz he's a Milanisti (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

What's your opinion? If you know someone better then them, mention him!

the cost for adu and pato shows how the world views US soccer talent vs. Brazil soccer talent.

adu waaaay outperformed pato in the u-20 world cup, but adu is from the US and pato is from brazil.

not until the US is able to continually put out players who excel in europe will you see them go for the same price as other parts of the world.

milan views this as getting the next ronaldo, ronalinho, robinho, kaka, baptisa, etc.

the closest thing the US has to a successful player is Brian McBride (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

It's not right to judge Pato only by his performances in that tournament (in which he yet managed to score 3 goals in 5 games).

Pato did great things for both his club and his country. he had fundamental role in Brazil's glory in South American Youth Championship where he was also Brazil's top scorer with 5 goals. the same goes for his ex-club's glory in World Clup Cup.

Let's not forget that Pato remained a highly-rated and sought-after player even after U20 World Cup disappointment, and now he is in Europe's most successful club.
