33 games played last season, that's some going for an always injured player.

SSN suggesting he should go to Chelsea, but they seem to be forgetting that Morata isn't their only striker.
They currently have Batshuayi as their #2 striker and there's no rumours of him being moved on.
Llorente more likely to get game time as back-up for Kane in my opinion.

Apologies - it was a fractured arm injury -

I think we could do with a player like this, he is the type to come on and get you a goal when you need it. Gives us good options that I just don't see with Jansen.

I get the points you mention, but he's gonna be a bit part player right? How many of those multitudes of corners and set pieces will he be on for? How much longer does he have in his legs? He may have played in a high press in 11-12, but that was 6 years ago when he was 26. He's 32 now, can he really do that? And how long for?
I don't doubt for the short term he'd be a useful addition to the squad, but I'm just not sure it makes long term sense.

Just to be pedantic it was 35 in all comps and 38 the season before. Which backs your point up even more.
I don't understand why someone would think I don't want him so I will make some shit up even though anyone can Google it and see that I've made it up
There are actually strong indicators linking him with a loan move away to Everton if Chelsea land Llorente. Even Hazard yesterday talked about the need for Batshuayi to get regular playing time to develop. Lille, who are now managed by Bielsa, are also really interested in him. Batshuayi simply isn't an all-around footballer yet and has stagnated a bit and needs 90 minutes a week to develop like Lukaku was getting at the same age.

It doesn't make long term sense, you're right, but then I don't see it being a long term signing.

Think he is also a player that others can learn from, sometimes age and experience are a good thing.

Llorente looks set to choose Spurs over Chelsea. Told it is not 100% boxed off but v likely. #CFC #THFC
