Certainly a strange one. Llorente seems pretty similar to Diego in an strong aggressive type of striker, Bats is more quick run behind the defender type. Llorente must be coming in as a direct back up for Diego and we'll keep the same style and formation this season. If Bats goes the other way, a good few minutes to adapt to the PL can't be bad.

Strange one but surely we need to have trust in Antonio

I don't really see it as strange. Llorente looks really good for Swansea. We need somebody who can do a job.

Who the hell said anything about having a team full of ballon d'or winners?

Do you really think the only two options are world class players or the Alonso's of this world and with absolutely nothing in between?

Alonso is a good soldier. Not a world class but definetly a player we can use in the squad. Llorente would be like him too. 

 

Llorente could be a dangerous weapon. If we have to score and the other team parks the bus he can go in the box and the wingers can feed him with crosses. Also, if we have to protect the score he can come in and help a lot at corners.

He will be our Giroud. We are lacking a proper target man, he'll provide some further tactical options (i.e. when we need to play hoof ball or defend set-pieces). I welcome any signing sanctioned by Conte and he would obviously be his choice.

Exactly. His presence could help us against teams like tottenham and Liverpool who press the hell out of our midfield and back 3, making it so difficult to hold the ball. We can just get the ball straight to llorente and build up our attack from the final third. With costa close to him for linkups and hazard behind picking up second balls. 

 

Costa llorente 

Hazard 

Ake Matic Kante Moses

Cahill Luiz Azpi 

This tactical option wouldn't be necessary if every one of our back 3 and midfielders  are good on the ball and can hold the ball under pressure but we know how Cahill, Azpi, Matic and kante buckle under pressure now so llorente can help with this problem.

I remember a time where Negredo, Llorente and Soldado were some of La Liga's best strikers :lol: 

Me 2 which is crazy as all three are 31 years old. The same age all-time great finishers like Drogba, Klinsmann, Fowler, Lamps, Toni and many more had their highest scoring years...
