Llorente - I'm different

29 May 2010 13:38

Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente believes he will be useful to Spain at this summer's World Cup in South Africa because he offers something different to the team's other forwards.

Llorente lacks the pace of Fernando Torres and the movement of David Villa, but is a big threat in the air and is likely to be used against more direct, physical opponents in close matches.

"I am different striker to the others and I can help when the games are tight and the defenders are closing the gaps," he said. "Let's hope I can play an important part every time I come on the pitch."
