What managers say

Alan Pardew: "He [Llorente] picked Juventus instead of Stoke. We watched him when we were at Stoke City and when he was playing for [Athletic] Bilbao and doing exceptionally well there. We thought he was a very good player and someone who would suit us but he went on to Juventus," Pulis told BBC.

Jose Mourinho: "I knew the character of Ibra. At his age, he is a character, personality and has the passion to play. I told him England is not the best place for a holiday for a rich guy. You come for the most difficult league and to prove yourself. His decision was based on that," Mourinho was reported as saying by the Daily Mail.
