'Saints' has become one hell of an ironic moniker in the space of a week. In their ruthless pursuit of Premier League football‚ Southampton have pushed‚ bent and perhaps even broken the rules to an unprecedented degree. They've taken football's dark arts to a level that would make even Diego Simeone wince.

Llorente has saved his goals for the Champions League this season‚ netting twice against Liverpool in the league phase and once against Tottenham in the last-16. The Spaniard drew a blank when Arsenal thrashed Atletico 4-0 in the league phase earlier this season‚ but like Simeone's side in general‚ Llorente has had a knack for rising to a big occasion.
