Fernando Llorente (Athletic Bilbao)

This has been mentioned in a couple of gossip columns this morning (bbc etc.) unfortuneately quoting the same sh*t rag but hopefully there's no smoke without fire?

Adam and Carroll (and maybe spearing) out, Walcott/Afellay and Llorente in would do nicely for me

Not a chance mate - its rehashing old sh*te

Not like Bilbao need the money either after actually managing to agree deal for martinez.

Still, IMO, another top top striker currently playing at not a huge club who could want away to a club like ours

Would see llorente fancying CL football and I'm sure there is a whole host of suitors, would prefer Danny Graham myself

It is a sh#t link from a sh#t rag - but that's a joke, right?

but that's a joke, right?

I hope so

No I honestly would prefer Danny Graham, Llorente just doesn't have the quality for me. Christ its gonna be a long couple of days

Fair enough mate - can't say I'm with you there but that's what forums are for.

Out of interest - have you seen much of Llorente or just clips? Not meaning to patronise - genuine question.

Jesus are no ones sarcasm receptors tingling? Not even a little? Sometimes I despair!

    Fair play - there are some very young posters, hence my straight bat and question initially.

To be honest mate that's a helluva relief

You're not still beefing about those pics of my father in law are you? I told you not to open them at work but would you listen?

Couldn't help it... I looked at home but needed to look again, I couldn't wait 8 hours for my next fix...

This shouldn't stay open should it? We allowing that sh*t paper as source now because it's a player we like?

Amen brother - damn i miss Blue Peter craft time with Peter Purves

Twitter says Atheltic will not sell, so only option for someone the get Llorente is the buyout clause, which is about as big as Javi Martinez's.

Without a source you cannot possibly even dream that this would stay open.

Locked.
