As his performances against Liverpool, Burnley and Palace showed, he was capable of scoring absolutely sublime goals, but as his performance against Watford demonstrated, when the mood took him he was also capable of playing like a donkey.
To be fair his performances for Athletic Bilbao, Seville and Juventus should be taken into consideration, not base his whole career around one duff performance against Watford

Actually, class act. How long was Gylfi with us total? Mr. Llorente with us a year and provides this. Whether you want to see it as genuine or not I appreciate the gesture.
It has been a great pleasure to play the last year with the Swans. You have been amazing, I've been very lucky to feel your support. THANKS. pic.twitter.com/hCYIFbCAD1
Thank you to Fernando. In almost 40 years of watching the Swans I've sooo many memories of goals scored...and the winners in the 5-4 v Palace and 3-2 v Burnley will never leave me... PURE ECSTACY. p.s. Why doesn't Wilf take Llorente's number instead of Amat's? WTF is that all about??
I think this is a mistake on our part. A brilliant header of a football, he certainly seemed to enjoy playing for us and he'll be a massive loss. I'm not excited at all about Bony returning. It's a backward step IMHO. And for a new gain of £3 million. I'd much rather him have gone to Chelsea rather than those horrible barstewards.
Completely agree, Bryn.
Llorente was an absolute class act for us, both on and off the pitch, and he scored many goals that were vital to our survival. Sad to see him go, and I called the £12m figure spot on about a month ago. I knew we weren't getting £15-20m, as some dimwit on here claimed profusely (wink).
The fact we bought Bony for the same price really makes no sense at all. I am not confident he can recapture his old form, and some seem to think he was Superman during his first stint with us. Bony scored 17 goals in the PL four whole seasons ago, which is only two more than Llorente scored last season. I don't think it was a good idea to basically swap the two.
Having said all that, it doesn't matter at this point. Llorente is gone, Bony is back. I will support him just as I did the first time, and I hope he can come good and prove the doubters (myself included) wrong. I genuinely hope that, but the pessimistic side of me believes it's false hope. It remains to be seen which one will be true.
