Llorente May be the First to Break out of my BRICK Jail Cell






He once was a brick. He trudged, he crawled and did pretty much NOTHING that was of any use. HH insulted him, called him a waste of space and threw him in the BRICK cell along with Borriello and Marshall Mathers aka Bendtner. I thought he would done for, history, see you later in about a thousand years...but...people, miracles DO happen! Llorente is proof of that and I think this Spanish kid is proving that he can actually be a PROPER striker!




Ever since that goal against Madrid IN Madrid, Llorente has kept on scoring, including a late winner against Udinese. He was employed to do one thing and nothing other...SCORE GOALS. He is not only doing that, but the goals he is scoring have become extremely important. Even in Juventus's last game, the man that was once a brick came up to give Juventus the three points by scoring the winner. So I have had to pick up the keys and let him free from the jail cell, and as you can tell from the picture...he was ecstatic when he was released.

I like what I am seeing from Llorente. In a world that seeks to pack a team full of fancy midfielders, it's refreshing to see a down and dirty rugged striker. Someone who gets some muscle in there, can make things look ugly and HUSTLES for that goal. Llorente is finally showing the strengths that I did not see before. He is using his height and power to beat most defenders up in the air, which means that crossing the ball into the box now has a real chance of creating some magic. His aerial prowess is not his only asset as he is showing that he can link up well with Carlito Tevez. With the ball on the floor, the ball does not bounce off him. He can control it, back to the defender and can feed it off over to Tevez to facilitate attacks.

If Juventus are to make it three titles out of three and do something in the Champions League, then Llorente will be crucial. I never thought I would ever see him on a pitch again after all the insults that I rained down on him. The boy changed my view and is becoming a saviour for Juventus, which was a role I thought Tevez would fulfill instead. Mister Llorente I am sorry I doubted you....but the BRICK jail cell is never closed and if you start showing your old self again, I will be more than happy to have you imprisoned once more.
