Samuel Umtiti

[xXKonan]

Earned his 7th cap today for France and kept a clean sheet in a friendly vs Paraguay where France won 5-0.

He played well and looked comfortable.

Some quotes from Umtiti in his interviews for L'Equipe & RMC

Umtiti: "Previous season? Collectively we have had good moments and bad moments. That's why we weren't able to win the league"

"Just personally, to have a first season like this, playing so many games, is very satisfactory"

"I have to progress in some aspects still, but I'm on a good path. That's what I was looking for at Barca, playing a run of games."

"For my first season, it's gone well, although we haven't won any the titles we wanted"

"The 2nd leg against PSG was a great moment, a game which I'll never forget. In the first leg we were way below what we should be."

"Surely we were the only ones that could think that we could turn the game around (against PSG) in the second leg like that."

"Cavani goal was a blow. Afterwards we thought what Lucho said: 'Lads, even if there's only 5 minutes left, you can score 3 goals'."

"Honestly, Luis Enrique said that to us (against PSG). It wasn't easy, but we found the mental strength to believe in the comeback."

"I don't know where PSG went wrong. They let us play. When we scored it did them damage mentally and I think they gave up easily."

"At the start of the season, the objective was to win every trophy possible. To not win La Liga & to go out of the CL was a failure"

"We'd work hard so that next season is better and we win all the trophies. As a Barcelona player that is what we must do every year"

"Dembele? We get on really well. I know Barça are interested in his profile, but all the parties need to reach an agreement."

"Dembele would do well with us, with the quality he has he's capable of adding a lot"

"If Dembele comes he will be welcome, but it still needs to be official to talk about that. If he comes, he can sleep at my house."

That's the same thing Lucho told Andre Gomes. The rest is history

Those last three statements are very interesting. It sure seems like he knows something that isn't official yet, but will be official soon.

I hope that is the case.

I would like more france talents in the team, we should target Sidibe also. Seems like a decent player.

 

[clemente]

Instead of 90% Spain we will become 90% French team and will ditch this crooked league and hop to Ligue 1

Future club teammates

 

[clemente]

We might be full black team in the future, should go for black kits too

 

[gasgas]

We might be full black team in the future, should go for black kits too

That would make us easy to spot.
Sometimes its hard

 

[Sunny Mir]

Have been saying this for a while now:
We need more black magic in the team

Imagine starting a match with:
Umtiti
Marlon
Semedo
Dembele
