Llorente is obviously key to us in how Poch is planning on adapting our style of play to suite the wide pitch at Wembley. Providing Aurrier and Rose can deliver (and the new WF) then he'll be a great experienced player to have in the Squad.
If Poch wants him, then I want him.

I'm sorry I love Vinny, but we have to start being ruthless now. We can't wait around for him to come good. Get Llorente in for £10m cheaper, the guys an animal and would definitely be a good backup for Kane and guarantee goals.

Then use that £10m profit to go towards a quality pacey wide player, a so called "gamechanger."

I've lost all hope of a gamechanger. We'd have heard something by now if that was the case.

Llorente ~ let's be honest at 32 he will give us experience we have perhaps lacked, help our younger players, will have not issues in managing the physicality if the league or playing a bit part, has decent European experience. £15m is small change in the current market THINK Johnny Evans being touted at double that! I'm convinced if we get llorente he can be a decent addition for us

I like Llorente. great experience, and offers something different.

Plus, if it pisses off C*nte and the blue racists, it's a win win.

I can definitely see the reasoning behind the Llorente interest don't get me wrong. But all this talk about "pacey wide players" to complement him.... no one seems to be able to name a realistic option

The last time Llorente was shown around the ground was the day of the Tottenham riots. What's he going to think when he turns up this time and see's the stadiums been knocked down?

Llorente, off the bench. i'm very happy with this option. Great signing for me.

I've juts mentioned this to everyone in my office too, they are made up of Norvern team fans and they also think it's a very shrewd deal.

Levy has had a hard-on for Llorente for what seems like 7 or 8 years, from his time at Bilbao. Can definitely see him doing this for Poch if Poch wants him too.

Really hoping we can beat Chelsea to Llorente. Always thought the ideal solution to back up Kane was an experienced striker willing to fill in where needed, and he ticks all of the boxes, 15 PL goals last year and major aerial threat. Style of play negates the age concern a bit too.

Philosophies evolve and adapt. Janssen is not cutting it. We need strong game changing options on the bench. Llorente can bring what Giroud and Fellaini do for their clubs, rate them or not they earn points against defensive teams.

Haha thats right wasnt that the year everyone was joking about seeing Levy with a wheelbarrow of cash. Personally would love this to happen, he has that something were missing. His aerial threat would be a huge bonus.

With the possible arrival of Lorente and exit of Janssen, we surely have to be confident at securing a fast WF, perhaps one who doesn't have to also play CF as well
