Fernando Llorente

[Hansern]

According to AS we are very interested and are looking for a january move.
Would be ace on so many levels although nearly every club out there will be after him.

Also scouting Herrera and Isco.

 

[Leo]

He's the nuts so obviously we have no chance of getting him.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

I like Herrera.

A shame that Bilbao team's being broken up... they were starting to look decent.

 

[Fabio]

Isn't he frozen out or something? Remember problems with muniain and him in the summer

 

[Dreambeliever]

It would be like when he got Torres all over again

 

[Fabio]

It'd be better than that pat

 

[Hansern]

You know he's ace when his nickname is the Lion King!

Would love to sign him. 6'5 but can actually play football and is mobile.

 

[Dreambeliever]

It'd be better than that pat

Could it possible be better? Torres first season was the stuff of dreams.

True, but no one expected that of him

llorente we would expect goals from, and he'd deliver

 

[OLD_Lewy]

we've been linked to llorente too often for it to actually be true, think we'll get a pretty good striker in january, just not him

if its not del piero i don't want to know

Ya but to have the effect Torres had he'd have to get 40. Torres was simply sublime from day 1.

Ha ha Del Piero must go watch him when sydney are in Melbourne.

 

[Buddha]

Fuck yeah!

 

[mom]

I'm sure he'd cost a few more bob than Dempsey, so unless we sell Carol in Jan to fund the move, which we probably won't, it ain't going to happen.

 

[the count]

Didn't he turn us down the January we signed big Andy.
I doubt if we are more attractive of an option now.

 

[OLD_Lewy]

we don't know if the owners wouldn't fork out the money cause they didn't want to pay that much for a player or just to pay that much for dempsey

 

[Judge Jules]

Count: the position may depend on his own situation as much as ours. If it's true that he's made up his mind to go, as some reports say, we may yet be in with a chance.

Lewy: they didn't want to pay Fulham's price for Dempsey because they didn't think it represented value for money. Maybe they might take a different view about this guy. I certainly hope so, because I think he'd be well suited to the Prem.

yep, that was basically my point, I guess they thought dempsey wouldn't add considerable value to the squad, whereas i'm guessing they'd think llorente (or someone of that mould) would

 

[gene hughes]

He's 28 isn't he?

 

[Hansern]

27

 

[LeTallecWiz]

fuck yeah!

 

[Vlads Quiff]

I thought everyone was saying the other week that if Carroll didn't fit the system, then Llorente wouldn't either

Night and day between them.

 

[Vlads Quiff]

I am not saying there isn't, but he is like a big target man, who can play footy, and I am just pointing out the argument used when we were linked before the transfer window closed.

regards

 

[Fallon]

*unconvinced*

By both the link and the player.

 

[Markeh]

*unconvinced*

By both the link and the player.

x2 not fussed either

munian please

 

[gene hughes]

X 3

 

[keniget]

Very good player but is he the right one to spend 20 plus million on?

All anyone has been talking about for the last few months is how we need a mobile striker that has great movement - the Villas and Falcaos of this world.

 

[Hansern]

Wont be 20 mill though. He's got 6 months left on his contract in january.

Don't remember it that way TBH and, if anyone *was* saying that, I don't agree. Llorente is more mobile than Carroll and I would expect him to fit Rodgers' style a fair bit better.
