Fernando Llorente - ST - Athletic Bilbao (37 Viewers)

[HAZEM]

35 M€ now means we pull out.

On another note, I am really intrigued to have more about the myth of Spanish players in Serie A, does anyone have a list of those and what they did with their respective clubs?

All I remember is Jose Mari (a total flop because he is actually an average player), De La Pena (also an average player) and Mendietta (a total mystery as to why he didn't succeed).

Bojan not something to be considered good also. i have a big doubt about this rubbish Liga.

I think he's just what we need. Of course Jojo or RVP would be better but marotta dont have it in him to sign those players and Llorente will do good playing with the team we have now.

Classic.

I believe that if you're a quality player and you know how to score goals, you'll score them regardless of what league.

That Spanish flopping in Serie A is just a bullshit coincidence.

These were at the times were a choking nation and no one other than Real won anything significant and Real had many foreign players.

Genoa have had a couple lately, Chico didn't really hit it off and Zapater wasn't that great. José Ángel wasn't good at Roma.

Classic.

Isnt it.

He could be another Vucinić type of transfer. Not many wanted him, but he turned out to be great.

BTW besides his height (195 cm!) his weight is 90 kg ! He's a tank really :O

 

[ALC]

Bojan's not Spanish. And we haven't gotten any of the good Spaniards. You guys really think players like Iniesta and Alonso would be bad in Serie A?

Llorente has all the tools to be a good player too.

The tougher and more disciplined marking in Italy would be new for him compared to la Liga, I guess.

On the other hand it's hard to take him down. Hope he's got good technique and movement in the box. With these characteristics he could make it.

Hairy pussies and lots of goals

With the use of this picture for Vucinic

You nigels are killing me

Oh stop with these stereotype comments..This is getting really old.

You forgot to add just how poor some of the quality of teams in Serie A are..Whats important is that this guy knows where the back of the net is,besides that he's very good at linkups and holding up play ,he's got really good technique overall..With the right kind of service i dont see why he'll flop here.

Juve had only one Spanish player till now. Luis del Sol, midfielder, 8 years here, 294 games, one of the stars(50 Legends) in our new stadium.

Yeah I agree with that, Serie A is no longer the league of great defenders. You can count them using fingers of one hand easily. For smaller teams it's just about parking a bus and counterattack.

Also, everyone said the same thing about Torres when he was linked here.

However in Euro 2012, he tore Italy's defence apart and that was Italy's best of the best. His movement completely fucked Barzagli, Bonucci, and Chiellini.

If you're good, you're good - no matter where you are.

 

[JuveJay]

Bojan's not Spanish.

O rly?

 

[ALC]

O rly?

Or is he? rly?

 

[JuveJay]

Yeah he was born in Catalunya I believe, Serbian family.

 

[ALC]

oh ok. he was never that good to begin with tho, so he doesn't count
