Trezeguet would have scored from those chances with his eyes closed, but it's no disrespect to Llorente as he's still so goddam good. And hot too. Too fucking hot. Tremendously.

Trezeguet would have scored 1 goal, because llorente created the other two himself

When given 5 finishing opportunities, trezeguet would have probably scored at least 3.
But llorente would create 5 more. Not sure about how many he'd score tho :tongue:

I dont know however came up witht it, but its time we stop comparing an excellent technical targetman, with one of the best poachers in history.

Your rival and mortal enemy RUS started comparing those two.

Llorente is not a pure finisher, sorry to say. If he was he'd be absolutely unstoppable.

But the work he does for the team is rare. Very useful in that regard.

I think his biggest weak point, if you can call it that, is that he's too selfless at times. There's been a few occasions where you think he'd be way better off attempting a shot himself only to try lay up Tevez or another strike partner in a worse scoring position.

It's gonna be fun when he reaches 10 goals in January.

If you guys don't know yet, Elvin is always right

Excellent when he came on. His link up play with Tevez is sensational.

He just can't put away easy chances 😝

See, he's not a pure finisher in the sense that his natural instinct is to look around for teammates. He had the goalie dead outside his box and instead of feinting and taking it out wide to look for the open net he was immediately trying to set up a pass.

I think when he gets the ball in the box he shields first, and then looks for a teammate and in the process ends up freeing himself up infront of goal but he's not ready to pick a corner and ends up rushing a shot on net.

Even a guy like Higuain or *lol* Quagliarella will have decided he wants to turn his marker and hit a corner before he gets the ball where Llorente will always shield first and look for a teammate. 2 totally different mentalities. It would be nice if Llorente could combine the 2 mindsets. There are times when he has a severe physical advantage and no real support but he still brings it down and waits. That's an example of an obvious time he should just try to bludgeon his way to the net.

 

[Yuckerini]

is it me or does Llorente seem to be dropping deeper than Tevez at times?

 

[Red]

He literally owned Natali for +50 minutes. The finishing, though....

Was one incident that was quite amusing when Llorente was casually holding Natali off near the halfway line for several seconds.

Llorente spent most of that time just looking at the ref asking when he's going to give a freekick, but still effortlessly holding off this big defender who is clambering all over his back.

Is everyone done with the excuse-a-thon

 

[juventus4life]

he knows he's too clumsy to score 1 on 1 scenarios.

 

[.zero]

He does?

which is why he would be totally awesome when paired with guys like suarez or cr7, sadly we can't afford them lol
