Yeah you would think there would be basic conversations to start with.

100%

It’s not helpful to either party to be misaligned at the start and I assume Pato wants to find a club asap as he needs to play to earn a sensible UK based contract in the summer.

I don’t have any inside info on this but I would be amazed if Pato even started training with us with a view to earning a contract unless his package requirements were seen to be broadly ok.

£7k vs £15k is not broadly aligned.

Therefore either GIMOC is wrong or he didn’t join us initially to earn a contract but just to get fit and our view on him changed during those training sessions.

But on the other hand 7k a week against nothing without a contract? I would be happy for him to join on 7k a week but not 15k a week. He would have to prove his fitness and ability to get that much.

I don’t actually think his record is that good over his career, unless I’m missing something?

13 goal contributions last season for Swansea, in what might have been his best ever season in the Championship. Turned down a new deal.

Just the Championship

348 games, 55 goals, 52 assists. 7 goals and 6 assists last season.

That's if he still has it in his locker.

There's no doubt he has been a very good Championship player but he's 33 and been released from an average MLS side . Would have taken him many times over in previous seasons but players can age very quickly so I wouldn't be rushing to sign him and pin a lot of hope on him turning our fortunes round

I think a lot might be focusing on the MLS thing. Just a few months ago people would have been creaming over getting him from Swansea where he had just got 7 goals and 6 assists.

He could well be miles past it but I'm hoping if he is then it will be spotted while he's training with us.

I don’t think anyone would have been excited had we signed him in this summer or the one before ….

If you had offered me a swap for Kasey Palmer I'd have been over the moon. (and I'm somebody who often stuck up for him).

as a midfielder, one goal and assist every 6 / 7 games isn’t bad from midfield I guess, depending where he’s playing

Seems rather a big outlay as a favour to help out.
