Alex Pato
Pato’s a wing forward. He plays out on the left in a 4-3-3, much like Neymar at Barcelona. Liverpool fans began to scratch their heads last week when news apparently broke that the former wonderkid had signed a deal with us for January, but it’s since been played down. The 26-year-old is tearing up trees for Sao Paulo in his homeland on loan from Corinthians, but the temporary deal ends in the winter. We think Pato would be a very interesting option for us due to his pace, skill and position. He can also play as a quick centre-forward, something we need in Daniel Sturridge’s continual absence through injury.
