Fernando Llorente has been one of Mauricio Pochettino’s go-to men this season, especially when star striker Harry Kane has remained on the sidelines with injury.
The Spanish striker who has spent the majority of his time on the bench has stepped up whenever the team has needed a crisis-man. He has played 31 games in total this season out of which he has started in just nine games. But he has eight goals and five assists to his name. He has a goal or assist every 121.2 minutes in the Premier League.
In UEFA Champions League, Llorente has scored twice and both goals came in crucial knock-out fixtures against Borussia Dortmund (Round of 16) and Manchester City (quarterfinal).
