Fernando Llorente has never been a prolific goalscorer, but what he lacks in scoring power, he certainly makes up for in physical strength and chance creation.

So far this season, the Swansea striker has struggled for form and fitness and before last weekend he had a solitary goal and assist from eight starts.

The ex-Juventus and Sevilla forward then struck two late goals as Swansea completed a remarkable 5-4 win over Crystal Palace at the Liberty Stadium last weekend and Llorente literally ripped up his formbook.

Now he has these goals, he will have undoubtedly picked up some confidence and will be keen to use this to help kick-start his and Swansea’s seasons.
