He's good if you play to his strengths, like all forwards who are good but not elite. It also helps when you play against teams who give space in the box.

I've been to south Wales a lot :D

Just pretty grim weather and quite a few shitholes, but on a good weather day it's nice :D

He wanted to go back to Spain. Now he ends up somewhere that couldn't be anything less like Spain.

Turin will seem like the centre of Bilbao compared to Swansea, he's in for a shock.

I get the feeling he is declining rapidly.

Those are Celta Vigo fans, not Sevilla. The Celta Vigo scarves are a dead giveaway.

Playing for Bayern means you have to become one to fit in.

Some like to call it trolling, he calls it 'unpopular opinion'. It's an interesting take on ignoring facts.

You're new here? Cronios makes up prices.

€6m and €10m. And these were the top strikers for each team, which is probably not important but I thought I would mention it.

To China and UAE, so I guess it is true about the Turkish league being the stop off before retirement.

Officially they are right though, just not technically.

On a serious note though it does make me wonder what Llorente was actually asking for to leave. That's a quarter of their previous wage budget on one player.

Di Marzio says Sevilla will be matching his salary.

I see 52 / 34 on transfermarkt, but I'll look at the numbers tomorrow.

Yeah maybe, although it's not like the Moggi days where we can force the hand of teams. As I already said we can only sell for what a team wants to pay. Then it comes to the player, we can do things like threaten him with isolated training for two years, but are we really going to do that?

You're ignoring the wage scenario though. That is saving us money. If Sevilla reject our request for a fee then it potentially costs us money if no one else comes in.

BTW I think if we had received a better offer for Llorente already, and he accepted it, he would have been gone. It's nice to think that we were fending off €10m-€12m offers all summer and then suddenly horrible to think we have given him away for free, but that's the downside of the continual...

That generally happens, just look around every summer transfer window. More moves will happen in the last couple of days than the previous 50. It's a cat and mouse game with everyone trying to get the best deal, just one of the problems of having a transfer window.
