Fernando Llorente is the master of slow motion who might just keep Swansea in the Premier League

A walk, a jog, a little grapple here, a header there, another jog and then a rest. It’s what Fernando Llorente does, this master of slow motion who might just keep Swansea City in the Premier League for another season.

This was another of those days when so much just passed him by, all those folk busting guts while he looked on in a state of some curiosity. They sprinted, he watched, they sweated, he went for walks.

It’s the way he is and so far it has won the big Spaniard a World Cup, a European Championship, three Serie A titles under Antonio Conte at Juventus, all the other cups in Italy and also a Europa League with Sevilla.
