Man, I really feel bad for this guy.. I was so eager to see him, I hope he stays strong and shows what he's got!

The thing that baffles me is that Llorente fits perfect in the 3-5-2 formation. A tall striker with wingers to cross, yet Conte refuses to play him.

If he didn't want Llorente here then why the hell did he accepted to buy him in the first place?

 

[Hydde]

I hope he stays strong and show conte the madman, that he can for sure still play footie.

Its so unfair for him to be eating this amount of bench.


Im seriously getting so mad at Conte right now

Llorente has many admires, maybe because we were hoping to grab 18M for him?

Saw him warming up today. Did a good job, might even get some play-time against Sassuolo on December 14th.

 

[Ahmed]

absolutely no logical explanation for him not even getting on the pitch in the past few games.

 

[Klin]

He must be match fit by now with all the warming up he's been doing.

 

[Ahmed]

actually his muscles have seized up by sitting on the bench for so long, so he's unfit again.

 

[Klovn]

You must admit, whatever Llorente has done to Conte, well. Let's just say that, Conte has defintely got his revenge.

 

[Ahmed]

for once I wish we had an obtrusive President like Berlu who would make the coach play his choice of player.

 

[Zacheryah]

I dont know why conte is so persistant on showing fans and media that only he decides on the players...


...but it was retarded that llorente didnt play

True, but what if that player was giovinco

Relax, Hellas weekend coming up.

 

[Ragazza]

as soon as conte pulled out the not match fit excuse it was obvious he doesn't think very highly of him. because he is match fit. but whatever. play giovinco and quagliarella instead.

I got to watch a preseason training session & saw him with my own eyes, he looked pretty "fit" to me. I just thought there might have been a discrepancy between just physical fitness & "match sharpness", but who knows.

 

[Ahmed]

@Zacheryah let's not even try to imagine that scenario.

 

[JCK]

Let's not kid ourselves, he's a tall forward, we don't need him against defenders who are good in the air.

 

[Zacheryah]

True that.

But i seriously dislikes the way conte is showing off he's making the calls

Agreed, we should field him against a quick defence, and then try to pass it over the ground to llorente

 

[donpiero]

Well... He's unfit like hell. Soooo let's sit his ass on the bench for as much as humanly possible, and play every two bit stupid striker we have in front of him, and totally shatter his confidence and see how this works out for him.

that was a seriously strange explanation from Conte.

Does any team even have small CBs?

And field Asamoah on the left and Lichtsteiner on the right and make sure he won't get aerial balls.
