Yes, Suns doesn't like defenders. He'll rather just play with a 6 man team.

EDIT: Too slow...

Hes a mile taller then Dzeko

Nope, Llorente is 195cm tall, Dzeko 193. That's less than an inch for those who don't know metric. (1 inch = 2.5 cm)

I apologize I tend to be literal from time to time.

Edin Dzeko FTW. Llorente after everything this market has put us through. I'm sorry, but he's pretty much the Spanish Pazzini. That may or may not be a good thing, but he most certainly is not the game changing, top level player, we have been promised for the last two years.

I'd be really disappointed if this move went through. Whether you blame Marrotta, Serie A, or the lack of buying power. Whatever. It would be a letdown.

He scored 90 goals in the last 4 seasons (18, 23, 19, 30) and that's one more reason why he'd be expensive, despite having 1 year left on his contract. If he's available, I expect some other big teams to be after him.

When will you realise marotta is not capable of buying a top player he promised and we are going to have to go for the next big thing. So its either the irritating fvck pazzini or a better version of him and more likeable Llorente who could still surprise and be actually good in serie A.

Or wait for the youngsters to develop into our very own WC top players.

Dzeko is not really better than Llorente. Both of them have similar characteristics and are more or less of the same quality. I do think though that Dzeko will find it easier to adapt to serie A.

I think the reason I'm leaving toward Dzeko more is because he's probably a lot closer to King Trezegol. Llorente has some pretty consistent figures on the scoring charts but theres something about him that doesn't convince me for the Serie A.

DDTS FFS! Great CF, was unlucky to play in a tiki-taki team, ruined his Euro chances, but I watch La Liga and he is an absolute beast. Who have seen him will agree.

 

[noussa]

i would like to have him here rather than pazzo....just sign armero already and with pirlo, gio, vuci etc we could give a tons of assist & let this Llorente guy finish the job that matri & Quag couldn't

I like Llorente a lot.

Knows how to lead the line, links the play nicely and still consistently provides a goal threat.

Only down side would be his lack of pace which could limit your options with regards to tactics.

I'd say 20m is not an unfair price for him, even when his contract is running out.

However, while Juve may be interested, I very much doubt anything resembling a firm offer will have been made.

However like i said yesterday. His pace will be no problem, Since we'll most likely dominate most games.

And our only problem would be a great finisher in the box, and that's exactly what Llorente is.

Btw Mark. Who is Athletic Bilbao?

 

[Red]

I don't consider him a great finisher.

He's good.

 

[alexjuventino]

I don't consider him a great finisher.

He's good.

I think our only pacey forwards are Matri and Vucinic

 

[jukazem]

Last year of his contract If ever top strikers were available, it's this mercato and not too many competitors either.

 

[Nzoric]

He's better than Pazzini and Matri but not by a large margin.

by a huge margin. one of my favorite poachers around, would be delighted if we managed to sign him .
