Spanish Pazzini!?:sergio::lol:

Apples and Oranges. Llorente is built like a tank, holds up the ball very well, is a titan in the air and leads the line with aplomb. Not to mention he probably has an additional 7 inches of manhood over that bag of shite pazzo.

Quite atypical spanish player in that he is built in the mold of the "classic English" no. 9. He does'nt really stand out in the Spanish nt, as a player of his style does'nt really fit into their pretentious tikitaka shite that is very much in vogue nowadays.

Would be a good buy if he is indeed on the last year of his deal, and can be bought on the cheap. Ive seen a quite a few Athletic games, and Llorente has always been solid. This guy is a penalty box battering ram. Outmuscles defenders with ease, wins everything in the air, decent shot and surprisingly good touch and dribbling. On the flipside, Llorente's pace is wanting, but thats not surprising considering his size and build. That does'nt lend itself to lighting counters, but thats not our game anyway. He does'nt drop deep or track back to help the defense either. So-so movement compared to elite strikers like a Higuain (who just ghosts into scoring positions/ plays off the last defenders shoulders expertly). In short, Llorente would be a very good addition to the squad, especially with all the possesion we have. Certainly an upgrade over Matri and Quag.

    Llorente over Soldado

    Llorente at 20 over Dzeko at 28 and maybe even at 20.

    Well...even if Barca comes knocking, I'm pretty sure he'll be smart enough to decline their offer. Barca and Spain have a very similar playing style and he hasn't been of much use for the NT, so the same thing would happen at Barca. I'd like to think he would be much more ambitious then getting trophies while being on the bench.

    I like to treat people as intelligent creatures until they prove themselves to be retarded. :D
    If Llorente does go to Barca it would a horrible and stupid move for him. I hope he makes the right choice and comes here for free to be Cavani\Higuain's sub :tuttosport:

    look at Veratti he went to a club which only has money wouldnt he want to go to a club that would allow him to grow?
    Fuck Veratti, you can't trust midgets we've already been through this.
