Fernando Llorente - ST - Athletic Bilbao (64 Viewers)

[Klin]

A part of me wants us to pull out of this deal and make Llorente go on a free next summer. Get jo-jo now and Fuuck up that club president of basque inbreds.

Even tho the club president is doing his job.....but still.

We'll be making a mistake going for a player with JoJo's characteristics instead of Llorente's.

Don't agree. Jovetic would make for a much more dynamic attack, something which is always confusing for opponents and fits the rest of our team perfectly. Holding up the ball is not a problem for him or the Vooch.

What fits our team perfectly is someone who's able to finish our 12438245 chances per match.

The so called "false 9" tactic won't be working in Italy.

Firstly it's a bit overrated as our number real clear cut chances are not that high. And secondly since we don't cross that often Jovetic would finish our chances off as wel. He's not the Vucic type of player that misses an easy shot from inside the box.

Jovetic is not a false 9, he's just a gifted all-round attacker without a heading game. That's all.

That's weird. Because i seem to recall that Roma and Totti used it with succes back in the days. But if you say so...

What do you think is gonna happen, Red?

My prediction when Juve were first linked was that a deal would probably be done for around 22m (including bonuses).

I still think that would be enough to convince Athletic Club to sell, but I'm not sure if Marotta is willing to go up to that.

I think Juve will complete a deal for Llorente, possibly very late in the transfer window, if they fail to get Dzeko.

There was a great and useful post which was a list of every foreign player that played in Juve, divided by country and with information about number of games played and years they were in Juve. I have the link from older version of forum in my bookmarks which doesn't work (thread addressing has change in this version of VB forums), but has the thread and post number in it, don't know if its useful :

Forza Llorente. Told Bilbao he only wants us and they should accept our offer.

He also said he'll just leave for free next year. We've offered 21 million.

[Xperd]

Well its been reported many times on the offer we've made to Bilbao which means that we do have money to buy a striker which is good news.

---------- Post added 25.08.2012 at 15:07 ----------

Ideally i'd just like us to buy Dzeko or Llorente and simply close the market as far as incomings are concerned.

Outgoings: Pazienza,Martinez,Iaquinta,Ziegler,Leali(loan),Boakye(loan)

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

Source? And just speculation or actual quotes?

 

[Xperd]

I atleast believe that offer is true imo..Its been reported on atleast 4-5 sites(Italian and Spanish)..So i dont know if you guys are jinxing it or trying to be as pessimistic as usual when it comes to striker talk.

Btw There was no quotes in the article..Its been reported by AS and it probably is the most reliable Spanish newspaper.

Honestly, that's way too much money. A WC player like RvP on the last year of his contract went for a couple of millies more.

16-18M is a fair deal.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

So if there is no quotes from Llorente himself saying he wants Juventus and no one else it's bullshit.

And just yesterday the papers were convinced Dzeko was now our number one target

Merry-go-round bullshit.

16-18M is a fair deal.

RVP went for a fee of €30m including add-ons , €9m more than what we are paying for Llorente plus RVP was closing in on 30.

It really is a legit price for him i really dont know why are you guys underrating this guy..He is a top striker ,he may not be one of the best in the world but he's quality and will definitely improve our attack a hell lot.

And btw its €18m + €3m add-ons(bonuses)
