Waaa waaa

My pato is back !

He's very good in 2 striker formation (I try him in 4231 and i didn't like)

He got everything you need for a striker:

Workrate ( High / Low )

Shooting (finess shot and powerful shot without time finishing)

Agility

Passing

I played 47 game with him and he scored 42 goals and 15 assist (Futchamps and division rival)

I'm not the best player but it was fun to play with him and i will keep him for my next futchamps.

So with TOTW 7 I was very excited to see an inform Pato coming along as I used his gold card and he suited my play style well. I knew that I was going to buy him at least to try out.

I was lucky enough to pack his red card in my rewards, and since that moment I have realized that you must do nothing but praise this man as he is the second coming. I play a 3-5-2 in game with Talisca as the CAM right behind the fantastic striking duo of Hulk and Pato. This combo is deadly as they each provide a different threat, and with the implementation of Pato my team finally feels complete. His timed finesse is unstoppable, his dribbling is quality, and for a price of 30ish thousand, I'm not sure that you could get a better Brazilian striker.

In weekend league and division 4 of rivals I have played 36 games with Pato in which he scored 49 goals and provided 16 assists.

Although he nets more than half of the shots I take with him, his short passing and long passing do not seem accurate. I have tested his passing in very tight situations and nine times out of ten,this man produces.

I have used a plethora of different strikers this fifa, I have over 350 games, so I think I have a grasp on what works and so on. Similar striker such as Jesus are effective as well but this man brings EA(ids) to the next level.That is the reason I love him and he truly makes this game fun!

The bottom line for Pato is this - If you are looking for a striker that will score goals, make incredible runs, will finish the majority of chances you ask of him while also serving as a competent striker partner, you should look no further than this cheap beast and just pick him up!

Pato is back and he is amazing.

Feels great on the ball and shooting is oustanding using the Sniper chem style.

Do note that I used him a a left striker besides SIF Anderson and before that POTM Lucas to compensate for the pace.

As a solo striker he was not great to play with.

His 3* weak foot is not that great but you can easily do a dragback to get him on his right foot and finesse the ball in top-bins!

His composure felt alright not really good but does the job.

If you're looking for a low price range brazilian striker this is your guy!

Okay, so, this is my first review. I chose IF Pato, because it´s one of my most favourite players at the time.

IMPORTANT: Position change him as ST, DON´T PLAY HIM AS CAM!

I´m using him with Maestro chem style, because his 72 passing is not the best. Absolutely.

I´m playing BPL-CSL hybrid (I created it myself) 4-3-1-2 formation.

In goal I have POTY Schmeichel, RB Walker, CB Sánchez and David Luiz, LB Alex Telles, CM Fabinho, Fred and Paulinho, CAM IF Anderson Talisca and ST IF Pato with Gabriel Jesus.

So, can we start?

PACE: 87

9/10

This is probably the most key stat on his card. His pace is really good, almost nobody can resprint him. But how we know EA and FIFA, sometimes could Laporte wtih 65 PACE resprint him. But most times, IF Pato wins sprint race. He can be easily defended by Varane or Manolas, or just special defender with 80+ PACE.

SHOOTING: 82

8/10

He´s IF attacker, so his shooting isn´t that good., But it is still very good. His in-game long shots are not really good, but if he will shoot from about 16-meters, or you will go 1v1 with goalkeeper, he will score in 95% times. But try to improve his shooting, if you are not "passer" with ST and you will not need to improve his passing. But I improved his passing, because 72 is really bad.

PASSING: 72

6/10

Use on him chem style, what is improving passing. Really. Because 72 passing on 83 card isn´t that good. He will pass the ball, but normal through pass will be unusable. No more things about his passing.

DRIBBLING: 84

9/10

It looks like that 84 dribbling will not be good,. But stat is stat. His dribbling in-game is unbelievable. It will look really easy when you will dribble 6 players in the middle-pitch. There is no improving, his dribblin is great!

DEFENDING: 34

3/10

There are 2 types of attackers: absolutely bad defending or not that bad defending. And IF Pato? Really bad defending. So don´t play him as CAM, and position change him on ST. Because CAM is mostly attacking type of player, but he will move more in middle, and 34 defending in middle is so bad.

PHYSICAL: 73

7/10

He is not really tall (5'11") so he won´t be a header winner. In my team, Anderson Talisca (6'3") is the main header, so Pato´s heading is not that important. His stamina? 90 minutes is aboslutely Okay, but have an attacker as SUB, because of Extra-Time. His strength is not bad, but not good.

IF Alexandre Pato is really playable card, I´m happy that I tested him. He is my main attacker. So, don´t worry and buy him.
