Borja or Llorente? 21:57 - Sep 21 with 11021 viewsbiggar

Hello all,
Not seen tonight's game but for those who have, who do you think will be leading the line when Borja is 100% fit??

I know he's had poor service but Llorente hasn't convinced me one bit.

Borja undoubtedly. More mobile. Better touch.

Even with the usual limited service tonight Borja looked 5 times the player Llorente is.

So expect Llorente to start on Sat.

Llorente has had an absolutely thankless task. Borja had a bit more support tonight and looked a menace.

Not sure how you would do it without dropping Gylfi, or playing without wingers, but I'd like to see Borja playing behind Llorente. I'm sure they would bring out the best in each other and be a nightmare for defenders

BB even though I've hardly seen him.Llorente is only here for the money and hasn't the hunger Baston will have.He'll never be the better player but he does have something to prove unlike FL.

Borja although I can't join his appreciation society yet.

I wasn't expecting too much in his first game and whilst he looks slightly better than Llorente I didn't see too much to get excited about either. Brushed aside by Kompany numerous times and should have scored but shot straight at the keeper in the first half. No point in judging him until Christmas and by then he'll certainly know how tough it is to play up top for this team.

He was holding his right calf and signalled to come off so I hope he's not hurt again.

Don`t agree the guy is washed up, he has no pace and no conviction and no bottle, he`s just happy with money, utter waste of money unfortunately .

Though I agree he didn't make a huge impression in his first game, it's a bit harsh to say he should have scored that chance when it was a snap shot and he only just got their ahead of the defender who was flying in to challenge - in that situation the best he could do was smash it and hope, there was no time for deftness.

And actually it was a brilliant reaction save.

Bit harsh of the BBC to say he missed several chances and imply he was wasteful.From memory:

I He had a very good chance first half from a Caballero miskick that he would have likely scored from had he hit it a little to the left or right.

A bicycle kick from the edge of the area that would have been an unbelievable goal had he scored.

A shot from the corner of the penalty area where you could how he was trying to curl it in but he didn't quite get the connection right.

He hasn't played that badly. He has just been completely isolated. He hasn't had any support at all. I really don't know what people expect

He missed a chance against Burnley and didn't commit to a 50/50 with Schmeichael and he's a lost cause to most already.

Forget about him running good lines, pointing to where he wants it and being ignored. Forget about his nice touches, layoffs and give-and-go's where he never got the go. Forget about the fact there is never another Swans player within 20 yards of him.

Christ, he's been here 4 weeks, why isn't he the leagues top scorer mun?!

He has no pace the guy is two slow for Premier league football it does not matter how many games he plays, he`s to cumbersome and to slow, he was never the fastest granted so for someone like him to lose his pace mean`s he finished as a top class footballer we will be selling him on or getting rid of him by some other method by next season mark my words.

Maybe Guidolin's training methods aren't helping him to achieve Premier fitness

It's just the internet, init.

He's never had any pace so I can't see why this would be a problem now?

The lad has had no service whatsoever since he's been in the side. What's he supposed to do?

Absolutely. I have no idea how people can judge a lone front man who gets very little service or support.

He has had more Service than both Fer & Sigi who have both taken their chances and scored.
Fer 3 times.OK so one of the goals came from Llorente's attempt on goal.
Can you actually agrue with that?

He has also had more service than Fulton & McBurnie who both scored against Peterborough.

It is about taking what chances you do have and up till now he has not managed to do so, mostly due to inaccuracy and slowness. Maybe he will come good and score as many as Gomis per season.

Let's see if Borja manages to score any goals in 5 games.
