Fernando Llorente
- Thread starter JB08
- Start date
That was Herbert. But McDonell did say that Clyne to United was a done deal.
This would be some disappointment. Even lvg can't be this cruel.
There's not much of a story here, we may have been offered him like other clubs as Juve to want to flog him
He's so slow it's like John Woo is his personal camera man, he'd add absolutely nothing bar an extra pair of arse cheeks to sit on the bench in place of one of our young players.
He doesn't suit Juve's 4-3-1-2 but was good in his first year when we played a 3-5-2, scoring some very important goals and doing well as a target man.
He will be an upgrade to Hernandez if you have width, otherwise, he's pretty average.

Not LVG's type of striker.
So, as Van Gaal has apparently said the surprise player isn't a striker, does that put this one to bed?
I would rather have Welbeck back than Llorente to be honest. I don't see much difference between both, worse, I can even see Welbz better.
I'd rather just lump Fellaini upfront than sign Llorente.
No, because we already have Fellaini.
This wasn't even a thing even if LVG didnt deny it.
Or are we now seriously taking the Mirrors rumor machine as a reliable form of news?
Maybe van Gaal wants to win the crossbar challenge and needs the players to practice hitting an inanimate object from the halfway line. "It's in the process, if they can hit the head then they have better chance to make good hit on a bar eight yards long"
If you took Peter Crouch, then gave him blurred vision, even less coordination, and finally a muscle relaxant, you'd get Fernando Llorente.
DO. NOT. WANT.
DO. NOT. WANT.
He stopped being very good when he lost that old school David Hasselhoff hair cut a couple of years ago.
I'd rather we got Crouch.
He'd be a poor signing but no where near as bad as you're all depicting him to be.
He was a consistent 15-20+ striker at Bilbao and his first year at Juve.
He was a consistent 15-20+ striker at Bilbao and his first year at Juve.
Also scored 5 goals in his last season at Bilbao and is 30 years old now.
So?
Falcao had scored less in his season with us, yet we're not comparing him to Peter Crouch.
He is being compared to Crouch because of his style of play not goalscoring ability, besides Crouch has averaged 10 goals in his last 4 seasons.
I wish he would retire from football so we could put this rumour to an end.
Can't really use his goals scored in his final season there against him, he was frozen out once he decided to sign for Juve.
Not that I disagree overall.
Didnt he play rarely in his last season? I thought he had a hard time over there, because he wanted to leave and all that. Dont think you can compare that season and declare it as a 'normal' season.
31 appearances isn't exactly "rarely playing" he was a substitute 6 times with 8 goals, Crouch played 33 times and was a substitute 16 times with 10 goals.
Not that i want us to sign Crouch or anything(no way in hell), just trying to prove that Llorente(presently) is just a better looking, Spanish Peter Crouch.
He only started 4 league games and 4 cup games that season.
We could play him on the wing as a replacement for ADM
So, no one is willing to buy him?
We have tried to link him with every club ffs

No thanks
Linked with this guy now.
HURRY UP AND CLOSE
HURRY UP AND CLOSE
No just no!
Just don't.
This is from DiMarzio apparently. Proof that everything his says is total forking bullshirt.
You are kidding me!
Jesus rather have Fellaini up there, this window has been a nightmare. Cant wait to it closes
Really ? Why would we sell Fellaini and Lukaku to get this guy ?
Two league goals in two years at Spurs...
This would be a dreadful signing.
Di Marzio really has talked a lot of rubbish in recent windows. Shame as he used to be super reliable.
