This item isnt very good and here is why: life steal got nerfed into obvlivion so its not a viable source of team fight sustain anymore and therefore there is no need to counter it. Also last whisper is pretty much a must have on every AD carry and it reduces armor effectiveness to around a half.

Instead you can buy randuins for WTF AOE SLOW AGAINST THE WHOLE ENEMY TEAM or frozen heart for WTF ALL THEIR AUTOATTACKERS DEAL 20% LESS DAMAGE and both will be a much better purchase than thornmail.
