Just speculation from ESPNFC, "The paper suggested Liverpool have switched their attentions to Juventus striker Fernando Llorente, who appears surplus to requirements given Mario Mandzukic's impending arrival at the Serie A champions."

It would be interesting to see Llorente back in action & with a decent EPL side. Given his age though it would be a short term fix for whatever Liverpool needs. Maybe enough to get one last call up to the national team though if he performs very well.

Nvm actually he's 30yrs old so he could sign a 3yr deal possibly if this were to all happen.

Llorente is pro no questions asked. He has Spanish national team as well as Basque national team experience and can provide goals.

Liverpool need to do better than Llorente if they want to get back into the top 4. He's a decent striker to have but Liverpool need something better. They'd be better off going for someone like Higuain.

Idk how bad Liverpool is right now, but he would contribute 7-18 goals.

"Honestly I don't think Ings will ever be that good"

as someone who actually watches lower league english football, yes he will be. liverpool tried signing him when he was at bournemouth but he picked burnley for playing time (should give you some insight into his character with that move). when burnley got promoted, danny ings was dominating everyone in the championship, even with the crap team he had around him (3-4 were good or decent, the rest were crap).

ings has the potential to play for england, all the damn time. he is really that good. if he develops properly, he'll be one of the best strikers in the world.

He might play for England, but he won't be one of the best in the world.

if he can score 11(?) goals in the Premier League with one of the worst offensive teams in the league, then of course he can be successful at a team like Liverpool if we play our old attacking system.

Ings is a good signing imo for Liverpool yet he's not really the answer to Liverpool's problems. He scored 1 in over 10 shots last season and towards the second half of the season, he faded away when Burnley needed him the most. Despite this, he's a good option for Liverpool to have. Better than Lambert, Borini and Balotelli but that's not really saying much. Liverpool still need a bigger striker than him who can score over 15 goals a season because it's clear they can't put their faith in Sturridge because, at the moment, I can only see Ings making it as far as the England bench at the moment, at best.

with milner, coutinho and someone else that's good providing him goals, yes he will be.

"He scored 1 in over 10 shots last season and towards the second half of the season, he faded away when Burnley needed him the most."

1) he was playing for burnley. he wasn't going to get that many clear cut opportunities.
2) with the way burnley were playing (high tempo, defensive line), they were all going to burn out towards the end of the season. even then, ings still did his best. it's not his fault his team weren't up to his standard (besides trippier).

"Liverpool still need a bigger striker than him who can score over 15 goals a season"

ings got 11 goals and 4 assists for probably one of the least talented teams to ever grace the premier league. again, with better service, he'll get more than that.

Morata = Good, but your late
Dybala = Good talent
Mandzukic = Panic signing, will not play well

Considering the fact that Liverpool are one of the world's biggest teams having won 5 Champions Leagues (I'm not a Liverpool fan btw) and a striker who has only scored 11 goals isn't going to carry them into the Champions League. Yes, he was playing for Burnley but whilst they weren't the strongest team in the league, it should be taken into account how he was the vocal point of Burnley's attack, especially with Sam Vokes out for most of the season so it's not as if just because he's playing for Burnley doesn't mean he never touched the ball at all.

What defines a great striker from a good striker is his ability of making the most of chances which aren't simple tap ins. Danny Ings isn't always going to have the goals gifted to him on a plate in a league like the Premier League. Whilst I agree that Burnley were fatigued at the end of the season, I also feel as soon as Ings started to have the spot light placed on him, he immediately dropped in performances. This isn't a good sign if you're joining a club like Liverpool.

Despite this, I still think him and Milner (who isn't a player who isn't the creative type of player anyway) are good signings but are they really signings which would push them into the Champions League spots like what Suarez did? No. Llorente isn't that signing either.

liverpool aren't that calibre club anymore and the quicker people realize it, the better.

"What defines a great striker from a good striker is his ability of making the most of chances which aren't simple tap ins. Danny Ings isn't always going to have the goals gifted to him on a plate in a league like the Premier League."

true but all i said is that with better service, he'll score more goals. they're not going to be tap-ins either.

"Whilst I agree that Burnley were fatigued at the end of the season, I also feel as soon as Ings started to have the spot light placed on him, he immediately dropped in performances. This isn't a good sign if you're joining a club like Liverpool."

the minute burnley got promoted, everyone wanted to see how good ings would be because while he was in the championship, he was being linked with moves to liverpool and spurs while roy was considering calling him up to the england squad. he's had all that spotlight on him before being in the epl. in some games that burnley won, it was ings alone that saved them from losing points.

i'd also like to remind you that over the last few years, everytime they've had the spotlight on them, they've faltered, massively.

"Despite this, I still think him and Milner (who isn't a player who isn't the creative type of player anyway) are good signings but are they really signings which would push them into the Champions League spots like what Suarez did? No. Llorente isn't that signing either."

milner and ings are the signings liverpool need to challenge to get back into the ucl. and to be fair, not a lot of people had high expectations of suarez either when he first came in.

I agree with above, but I still feel he has the potential to become great, especially if Liverpool use their old attacking system in which Suarez and Sturridge thrived. When Sturridge gets fit, him and Ings can be a deadly, pacey duo. And I don't want Llorente at Liverpool AT ALL. He doesn't fit our style at all.

that was only possible because you had someone like suarez who was that damn good he could carry the team when things weren't rosy during a game. with him gone, there's no one.

"When Sturridge gets fit,'

bahahahahahahahaha this is too good

"him and Ings can be a deadly, pacey duo."

yes but you're relying a lot on sturridge

"And I don't want Llorente at Liverpool AT ALL. He doesn't fit our style at all."

i agree but he's better than your other options right now.
