Some may disagree but I think signing Llorente could end up being a bit of a masterstroke, even at 32. Spurs have been so reliant on Kane.

For what it's worth, I don't for one second think we played for the other side of the draw, I just think Southgate took advantage of the fact we were through to see some other players. Turns out we shouldn't see them again for the rest of the tournament, however long that may be.
